The Allmusic review by Ronnie D. Lankford, Jr awarded the album three stars and said that "Surrounded by strings and syrupy arrangements, Vaughan brings her lovely voice to bear on a dozen standards...The album serves as the perfect late-evening album...Vaughan delivers an ethereal and relaxed collection that will please fans".[3]
