***Overall 4.5 Stars*** 
 If you love a good alpha AF male, whether they wear their dominance like a second skin or have it come out to play with the woman they decide is to be theirs and theirs alone then this is the anthology for you. All of these stories are smexy as hell, and tend to edge closer to the darker side of the spectrum (and a few go beyond it) and have a whole lot of insta-ness going on, they are all fun and engaging reads that will make you want more. 
 Anthologies always present me with a bit of a problem as to how to go about reviewing the various stories in them, especially when they are novellas. My brain goes a bit wonky about how detailed I should or shouldn't be and I always seem to want more when it comes to novellas, so I'm just going to keep it extremely short, sweet, basic (and vague) 
 Infatuation by Willow Winters 4 Stars 
 Willow Winters is an author I have read before and enjoyed and I found this one to be quick, intense and hot read. I loved the mystery and suspense feel around the story, but would have loved if we'd gotten a little more backstory and explanation on certain points that were pivotal to the story. 
 The Billionaire's Beginning by M. Never 5 stars 
 M. Never's is an author I've wanted to read and just haven't had the time to do so, but I loved this one. This alpha AF male was everything I could have asked for, especially towards the end when he got his woman. 
 Doctor Dreamy by LJ Shen 5 Stars 
 LJ Shen is an author I've come to thoroughly enjoy. Her Hotholes are some of my favorite book boyfriends and Doctor Dreamy follows right along in the same vein. Dr. Dreamy is all that and a bag of chips. And then there is our heroine. We have a total opposites attract thing going on and I loved her moxie and her heart. 
 Malfeasance by K Webster 5 Stars 
 K. Webster is an author I pretty much stalk on the regular. I love her mind and how she can do everything from romcom to dark and insane. This one doesn't fall on either extreme, but does edge more towards the serious than the comedy, but I adored Judge and loved how he had his woman's back and helped her come into her own and reveled in her strength. 
 Fifth Avenue Blues by Jade West 5 Stars 
 Jade West is another author I've read and loved. Dirty Bad Wrong may just be my favorite book by her, so it isn't a surprise that I loved this one. It is pure, unadulterated, brilliant and oh so fucking dirty Jade West at her best. But this one isn't for the faint of heart, so if you are new to her, be prepared. 
 Date Night by Isabella Starling 4.5 Stars 
 Isabella Starling is another author I've wanted to read and all I cay is "Hello, Line. Let me cross you" This one hooked me from the start, I mean that first chapter is all kinds of mind fuck goodness and I needed to find out what the hell was going on and I wasn't disappointed in any way. 
 Bad Cop by A. Zavarelli 3.5 stars 
 A Zavarelli is another author I've wanted to read but time hasn't allowed for and while I loved the second chance goodness this story was, the flow was just felt choppy to me. Everything was laid out well, but it felt like I was missing a piece to complete the puzzle. 
 One Night by K.L. Kreig 4 Stars 
 Of all the authors in this anthology, K.L. Kreig is the one author who is absolutely new to me in every way and I have to say I really enjoyed this one. It was a quick no muss, no fuss read but the angst was definitely real here. I loved the setup and that little twist thrown in there was definitely well done.
