Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.
Michelle’s love affair with romance began the summer before high school when she discovered her mom’s Harlequin collection. The feeling of joy from experiencing those happily-ever-afters has stayed with her ever since.
Now she writes stories about strong women with strong passions, sexy swoon-worthy heroes, and the twists of fate that bring them together and try to tear them apart. She hopes to ignite the same spark of joy for her readers that caught fire in her that long ago summer.
When she’s not writing, reading, or voicing a novel, Michelle spends most of her time hanging out with her favorite humans. With marriages and babies and puppies, the boisterous group seems to grow every year, and she wouldn’t have it any other way.
Michelle loves to hear from her readers so drop her a note on Facebook or Instagram, or on her website www.authormichellegrey.com

Every town has a history. Some are more interesting than others. I've always wanted to learn more about Kansas City since that's where my mom was born and I got a complete snapshot of what life was like in 1917. Kudos to these ladies who feel so passionate about their city. I loved it.

Love the stories! Learned a lot and enjoyed the way the authors intertwined their characters to bring it to life. Great read!

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 15, 2020

This well-written anthology has sixteen unique stories by fourteen authors. Each author wrote in a different period, starting in 1821 and ending in 2007. They mixed fiction with Kansas City history in a teachable and enjoyable read.

I received this book as a gift from one of the authors while attending a book club meeting.
