These three anthologies collect short fiction featuring Alice Duncan’s work alongside stories by other romance authors. Midsummer Night’s Magic (1997) and The Magic of Christmas (1998) are themed collections published during her most prolific Leisure Books period, while Hot Off the Press (2014) is a later anthology from a different phase of her career.

Anthology contributions give a reader a brief introduction to an author’s voice and style without committing to a full novel. The themed holiday and seasonal collections were a standard part of the romance paperback market in the 1990s, and Duncan appeared in several alongside other authors working in similar territory.

These are peripheral items in Duncan’s bibliography, primarily of interest to readers who want her complete output or who collect 1990s genre anthology paperbacks. The full novels provide a better starting point for readers new to her work.
