Short Story Reviews

“How About Tomorrow? was extremely poignant. ... For a quick, simply stunning look at someone picking themselves up and dusting themselves off and going for broke, How About Tomorrow? is a cute read.” - Joyfully Reviewed (Sweetheart Rosette)

“Ms. Bayley-Burke is able to paint a vivid picture of a tough decision and the results of them... It was a wonderful story and very heart felt.” - Coffee Time Romance on Last Rose of Summer Rosette, What if We Listened?

“A short, sweet tale about two people locked into society's convention and bored stupid by it. It was simply charming to read.” - Coffee Time Romance (on English Tea Rosette, In Silhouette)

Through clever wording and vivid descriptions, this gifted author lets readers experience every instance of the story, as desires and sincerity abound. Each story I have read by Jenna Bayley-Burke has been moving and profound, and this notable story is a wonderful example. FOUND will touch readers by stirring their own emotions with its heartwarming impact." -- ecataromance

“Ms. Bayley-Burke shows a flair for drama.” - CK2s Kwips & Kritiques

"This little tale is erotic without being graphic. The blatant sex in today’s e-book market is a bit much for me to handle, so finding something that showed sex without being gross was a treat. And my favorite line in the story summed up so much in so few words: No denying she looked like sin. ...I wish longer e-books on the market could be this well written." -- 4 champagne flutes, Cocktail Reviews, of FOUND

“Jenna Bayley-Burke brings us a short but sweet tale of happy ever after, from a misunderstanding gone awry, leaving us with a warm heartfelt smile on our face.” –Sensual Reads

“A very sweet story that brought a smile to my face.” - Cocktail Reviews on The Forest For The Trees in Dreams & Desires charity anthology.

Just One Spark keeps you reading until the very end. I stayed up into the wee hours of the morning finishing it. This book is a poignant, sweet romance, showing tenderness and love can rebuild trust. Along with some intensely hot sex scenes, it also has humor. Finding out what Hannah’s nickname is for her vibrator and what it means had me laughing aloud.
