Alright so I didn't have any major problems with any of the stories in this book, in fact I enjoyed all of them. If you like fem slash, stories about strong women loving women, this is a good book to read. It's a fun, fairly quick and short read that has a number of good stories between it's pages.
Every single story in this anthology is different from the others. They all have a different feel, a different style and different characters.
The weakest of the stories for me was, ''Under Suspicion''. Some of the details got a little lost in the confusion of the whole thing but it was not a bad story.
All in all I think that ''Cupcake'' was probably my favorite though it's a close tie with some of the others.
