This is a novella with three short stories by Barbara Metzger:
"Autumn Glory"
"The Management Requests"
"A Match Made in Heaven - Or Hell"
""Autumn Glory" was my favorite of the three short stories, followed by "A Match Made in Heaven - Or Hell", then followed by "The Management Request". Like the only other book I read from Metzger the writing is witty, the characters charming, and the story fun and entertaining.
I’m glad I found this author, I like the way she writes and her smart but simple stories.

Cute set of Regency romance novellas. Nothing deep here, but if you need to step away from your world for a moment, these will do.

*Book source ~ A review copy was provided in exchange for an honest review.
Three humorous historical romance short stories in this anthology by Barbara Metzger will entertain the most jaded heart. I have yet to read one of Ms. Metzger’s stories and be disappointed. I count on them to cheer me up and turn my frown upside down.
Autumn Glory ~ A lively youngest sister helps her two elder sisters get the husbands they want. Shenanigans (and reader entertainment) ensue.
The Management Requests ~ First impressions are not always what they seem especially when a certain man doesn’t correct a certain woman’s first impression and in fact, encourages it. Like that ever ends well.
A Match Made in Heaven – Or Hell ~ A dash of the paranormal is added to this love story and it’s just the right amount to really bring the two stubborn characters together.
