Three different authors - three different stories related to New Years Eve at the Sans Souci mansion in New Orleans. Loved two out of three of the stories; last one was a downer.

Three stories set in the same New Orleans ballroom, by three distinctive writers. Stories are so different they are kind of disorienting.

The last story in this was just weird and I honestly ended up skimming -- sort of an out of body experience with a mad man who ends up killing her but, don't worry it was a dream and she did not betray her husband with 2 other guys and then get killed...weird.
The best story in this book was a retelling of Kiss me Kate or Taming of the Shrew.
