Detective Colin Parker wants to make amends to the woman he hurt years ago but he does not fully understand the mistakes in her past. Will Olivia and Colin find their way back to each other?
Olivia and Colin both made mistakes but I liked how they owned up to them and tried to work towards a better future. Olivia carries a weight in her soul and it shows on the pages of the story. Fortunately, Colin brings a little light back into her heart.

SKIN DEEP by Heidi Betts
Rob “Mac” MacGregor is shocked to see model Sophie Lawrence in his photography studio. They once shared a hot fling, back in the days when Mac was a powerful and famous photographer. Now, he is just trying to get by after a history with drugs. Sophie is bringing back the past and he is not sure if he wants to face it all once again, even with Sophie by his side. However, Sophie needs Mac in a way she never did before. Will this be a fresh start for them?
Both of these characters are hurting and in pain. Coming together makes those memories harder to bear, but as they grow closer once again, perhaps new feelings will eclipse the old. Heidi Betts pens a stirring romance.

It all started with ice cream and ended in a wolf bite. Suddenly, normal seventh grade teacher Ella is now an accidental werewolf! In a fight to save her, Luke Danhurst, a werewolf, bit Ella.

A FAIRY PRECIOUS LOVE by Gia Dawn
Summer is a fairy who has faced the hardest thing fairies can face: losing her wings. Now she lives on the ground in a world most fairies cannot conceive of. The loss of her wings also took the man she loved from her life. Fairy king Wolf-moss cannot have a woman by his side that cannot fly, so Summer stepped aside. But now Wolf is back and he thinks he made a mistake.
This was a sweet story of love finding a way, even amidst the odds. I enjoyed the reconciliation of two characters that were obviously still very much in love. The fairy world also came alive with minute details that added to the overall ambiance of the story. Well done!
