Publisher's Summary

Tying up…Loose Ends  

In Kristen Ashley’s first anthology, listeners will find three short stories and two novellas taking them back to characters and series in the Kristen Ashley universe.  

"No Clue", a short story - Visit with Joe and Vi from At Peace of The ’Burg series and learn how Joe breaks up a fight between his sons, what Ryker’s up to and why, exactly, his wife Violet has no clue.  

The Stars Aligned, a novella - The long-awaited love story of Hap and Luci. Introduced in Heaven and Hell, listeners learned, after a heartbreaking journey through grief, Luci was ready to take another chance at love. But Hap was adhering to “the code” between brothers, unwilling to betray his dead friend Travis by falling for Travis’s widow. Further, Hap can’t quite believe a beauty like Luci could fall for a normal guy like Hap. But for Luci and Hap the heart can’t be denied. Especially when the stars align.  

"The Favor", a short story - Deacon and Cassidy from Deacon of the Unfinished Heroes series go back to their favorite cabin at Glacier Lily, and there, Cassie asks her husband a favor. He’ll give her anything she wants. Including this.  

More Than Everything, a novella - Listeners left Diesel, Maddox and Molly at a crossroads at the end of The Greatest Risk of the Honey series. Maddox and Molly were all in with their commitment to their unconventional love triangle. But Diesel was letting the pressures and prejudice of family and society sink under his skin, making him hold himself distant from the man he loved. Can Maddox and Molly lead Diesel fully into their lives and give him more than everything?  

"Rock Chick Renewal", a short story - Tod has been planning Rock Chick weddings for years. He’s got a new one on his hands. And it’s not what he expected.

Not her usual offering

I love nearly all things Kristen Ashley. She is an amazing writer. I would happily live inside her stories. Unfortunately this anthology fell flat. Some of the entries were little more than a snippet of conversation. Others were so long-winded I found myself thinking, “just end already” or I literally zoned out the story in favor of mentally writing a grocery list. I enjoyed meeting up with beloved characters whom I have missed. However, that feeling did little to carry me through some of the less than stellar chapters. I have not read the Honey series because I’m personally not attracted to alpha males that enjoy being dominated by their women. That being said, I was curious about Diesel. Sadly, the story dedicated to him and his partners was more porno than love story. Unsurprisingly, the author created characters both flawed and beautiful. I just could not enjoy the story because 99% of it was sex and the majority of that was M/M (not my thing) instead of the dialogue and intriguing progression that make Kristen Ashley stories so compelling. For that reason it was hard to fall in love with the characters. This anthology was just disappointing to me but I remain a Rock Chic all the same.

Just couldn’t get through it

Don’t bother!

This is the first time I have ever been disappointed in a Kristen Ashley book. None if the stories were good additions to the original books. This was more like chapters she left out of the originals. Not worth the money. May even ask for a refund from audible. That’s a first!

Waste of a Credit

I have read all of Kristen Ashley's books with the exception of the Honey Series and obviously liked them. Unfortunately not the case with this jumbled mess. Like most of your readers, I have read a few books since I read bout the random characters you cover in your latest "book". If asking for opinions about doing this again.... Just don't. I am sure you don't need the money that bad. You are better than this.

meh

This book had a few short story's, and it was hard not to fall asleep during it.
the middle got a bit exciting, but it wasn't that good either. I guess this just wasn't written to my liking.

Loved this!

Great to catch up with all of these characters, and liked the combination of vignettes and novellas.

Would love to see more followups to K.A’s series like these! Well done!

I loved this

So good to get updated on favorite couples and getting closure to Mad, Molly and D. I love KA's characters, the men are so alphalicious and the woman so strong.
