"Sincerely Yours," by Jane Kirkpatrick, Amanda Cabot, Laurie Alice Eakes, and Ann Shorey

Four unexpected letters. Four intrepid women. Four lives changed forever.
Spanning a century and a continent, these romantic novellas will lead you on a journey through the landscape of love. Four young women find their lives altered after each receives a letter that sets her on a new path. From a Hudson River steamboat to a lush drawing room, from a carousel carver's workshop to a remote hospital, you'll be swept into the lives of women who are making their way in the world and finding love where they least expect it.

One Little Word by Amanda Cabot
Lorraine Caldwell will lose her family fortune to a reckless cousin if she doesn't marry quickly. When she learns her long-lost brother is alive, she hopes she's found the answer to her problems. What she finds instead is a mysterious carousel carver who turns her life upside down.

A Saving Grace by Jane Kirkpatrick
Grace Hathaway must rescue a dear friend from a remote and notorious clinic that promises healing but delivers only heartache. In a place laced with deceit, where lives hang in the balance, whom can she trust to help her?

I enjoy short stories, and although all these stories have a common thread in that they all involve letters, they are all very different stories.

All the authors put their own twists into their tales and I loved how each story involved a different type of heroine.  All had an inner strength that they called on along with their spiritual beliefs that were strong.  

Each story was easy to read and easy to get engrossed into.  If I had to pick a favorite it would be Laurie Alice Eakes, Moonlight Promise.  The historical background written by each author after their story is very interesting and should be read as well.

Stars out of 5 : 4.5 Well worth the read as you get four stories in one book.  All are enchanting and are enjoyable reads.  A book I would recommend with stories by well known authors.
