Customer Reviews

Wonderful book

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. Lynn Kurland books are just so wonderful to read.

Perfect for collecting all her works

Finally!!! I can read some of the cutest stories she's ever written, without having to drop money for skanky tales by equally-talented but less discerning authors. I was torn between collecting books by one of my favorite authors and explaining to my daughters, in a few years, why they couldn't read some of Mom's books. Thank you for publishing a collection of her works in a format that prevents them from being cheapened by other material!

A Kurland Fan

I loved this book. It has all of my favorites in one. Although I wish that Ian had gotten a book of his own. I really CAN'T understand why anyone would rate this 1 star!!!! I can't wait until I get her latest one. Lynn Kurland and Diana Gabaldon are two of my favories authors in this genre. Keep up the great work!

A wonderful and whimsical anhology

"The Gift of Christmas Past". In his previous eight lives, Sir Maximillian Sweetums the feline was able to see that his human wards were successfully settled. However, in his current and last life, he has failed to find the right one for independent Abigail Garret until now. All he has to do is send her back from the present in Michigan to thirteenth century England where Miles of Artane awaits his matchmaking abilities. "The Three Wise Ghosts". The trio of ghosts was frustrated with all work and no play Gideon. They decide that American visitor Megan McKinnon would be perfect to shake up the London CEO. Only each ghost, wonders how to matchmake without killing one another. "And the Groom Wore Tulle". In 1313 in a Scottish dungeon, Ian MacLeod drifts off to a wary sleep only to awaken in a 1999 Manhattan bridal saloon. There he meets designer Jane Fergusson, whose boss Petronia Witherspoon takes unfair advantage of her talent. That is until Ian becomes involved with Jane. "The Icing On the Cake". In Alaska writer-chef Sam Macleod of New York City meets wilderness guide Sydney Kincaid when they both rent the same cabin at the same time. This pair is not just opposites. They are universal opposites until love finds a way to bind them together. All four stories are different yet contain Lynn Kurland's humorous approach to loving relationships. Each tale is fun, amusing, and filled with delightful quirky characters that make LOVE CAME JUST IN TIME for the reader.Harriet Klausner

As Always, A Winner

As per usual, Lynn Kurland's short stories are nearly as wonderful as her longer tales. The four stories in this anthology are reprinted from other anthologies, and will keep you laughing for days. If I HAVE to pick a favorite (and I do), 'Icing on the Cake' is definitely it. And if I HAVE to pick a least favorite, I can't. They're all very well written, as I have come to expect from Ms. Kurland.
