5.0 out of 5 stars Oblivion 5*++
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 2 March 2024
Short, yummy and on so tempting. This is such a naughty tease of a tale, that I can’t wait to read more of. Stephanie Hudson’s work is the bomb, especially this series.

2.0 out of 5 stars Too many unfinished stories
Reviewed in the United States on 27 March 2024
Some of the stories were great and interesting, and those were typically unfinished, which was just truly frustrating. That just ruined my enjoyment of the book.
Some people will query why I include what could be perceived as a negative review, here is the thing, that review actually praises the stories, they just wanted more. I have been guilty in the past of writing short stories where readers have told me they wanted more but in short story format you can’t always round off every single loose thread as much as you try to. the chances are if you read a story in an anthology you really love it may be reworked at a later date into a full book, or it may be part of a wider world that the author has created that you will fall in love with if you check it out. Every reader is entitled to review as they see fit, I think 2 stars is a little harsh but I choose to take the positives that is was the fact the stories were so good that left this reader frustrated but I always recommend trying things for yourself.
