Ended up DNF-ing all of these, for various reasons, but ultimately it reminds me that "free" and "anthology" is a terrible combination for me about 99% of the time.

"For a Good Time Call" by Vi Keeland & Penelope Ward: DNF, urgh, I think it's trying to be cute and flailing. Can't keep reading.

"Eternal Sunshine," by LJ Shen: Has the 'a decade later' cliche, but oh well. This one could have used a polish edit. But, alas, the 'hero' was terrible to the MC and she did the right thing, and yet this confrontation has him blaming her. So, again, DNF because communication goes both ways, author.

"Stay Right Here With Me" by Willow Winters: DNF for a truly gawky prose style I don't feel like enduring.

"'Damsel' [crossed-out] Dude In Distress" by Helena Hunting: DNF; this is the sort of first-person narrative that I get done with very quickly. Very self-chatty for no reason except it should've been in third to remove this 'no one IRL thinks all this crap to themselves' reaction.

"The Beach" by RS Grey: Not feeling it. DNF in the first few pages.

"Lucky Shot" by Sarina Bowen: aaand another first person one that should have been third. Oh well.
