"Once Upon a Kiss" review by Layla Manning

Once Upon a Kiss by Nora Roberts, Jill Gregory, Ruth Ryan Langan, and Marianne Willman

"This is a collection of romance "fairy-tale" stories by four authors. Though I realize they have limited pages to work with, I didn't find the characters and their development of romance believable (even though my own romance was pretty instantaneous). In fact, my mind rebelled @ some of the turns the tales took: he betrays the heroine, lies and yells at her, and she then jumps into bed with him? Give me a break. I finished the book because I hate to leave a book open-ended, but I don't think any of the stories are good works by usually terrific authors."
