I've been a Sally MacKenzie fan for years. I devoured her Naked series and so when I saw this book on NetGalley, I knew I had to read and review. And now, several years later as I'm cleaning up my NetGalley shelf, I've finally read it.

In the Spinster's Bed is a introduction novella to the Spinster House series. A little history about the house is given over the course of the book, just enough to pique my interest in the series. But the story is a second chance story for Belle and William. They were young lovers who were torn apart and then have run into each other 20 years later.

The story itself is fine. It's a novella, so there's not a lot of time for character or plot development. I think the story would have been better if we had more of the character's history (rather than a couple flash backs) and a little more conflict. Everything resolved a little too tidy and quickly.

That said, I did enjoy the book... just wanted more. And I'm curious enough about the Spinster House to look for more in the series.
