May Day has been celebrated since Roman times with dancing, baskets of flowers, and bonfires. In this collection of May Day stories, Rogue’s Angels–Christine Young, C.L. Kraemer, Rosemary Indra and Genie Gabriel–continue the celebration with humor, faeries and falling in love.

No More Poodle Skirts — Genie Gabriel

If you are in the mood for some love, some magic, and some very special animals–not to mention an absent-minded inventer and magical creatures–you are in the right book. Step inside A May Day Anthology for four novellas which will whisk you off to a world where fairies help you find your soulmate (even if that means sending you centuries in the past), where beings who had their magic stripped from them seek revenge (and receive just what they deserve), where fairies play matchmaker, and where love can be found–even the most unexpected places.

Each of these four books are just right for a day’s reading–they are sweet, magical, and highly satisfying. The authors are all new to me and I will definitely be checking out their other works–and a couple of the worlds I would love to see in longer works– especially C.L. Kraemer’s “Defying the Odds” and Genie Gabriel’s “No More Poodle Skirts.” There are secondary characters in both of those novellas I would like to visit again and discover their stories. Christine Young’s “Highland Miracle” and Rosemary Indra’s “Love in Bloom” are cute standalone stories that I thoroughly enjoyed. Kudos to all the others!

  2. So glad we were able to lighten your day and bring some adventure to your life. Thank you for your comments.

    May Day has been celebrated, basically, as the official start of days full of sun and fun. Hawaii combines the love of two things and celebrates May Day as Lei Day and hosts a parade down Kalakaua Blvd in Waikiki on the first of May. It’s a signal to put away winter.

    When I was a child on May 1 — May Day– we would put flowers on our neighbors porch in homemade baskets. After ringing her doorbell we would run and hide. Writing this store brought back a lot of fond childhood memories.
