Moore, and Aubrey Mace have teamed up to create a fun and romantic spring vacation novella collection. Each story is filled with characters that readers will fall in love with as they work through complicated or maybe not so complicated romantic relationships. Each author has a similar, but unique style of writing from the others in this novella collection. I would recommend this novel to readers that want to get away and go on a “spring vacation” into the wonderful world of the Spring Vacation Collection.
