In each other they found the piece of themselves they hadn’t even realized was missing.
This anthology was put together by writers who hold author Doris O’Connor near and dear to their hearts, because the genre is one near and dear to Doris as an author. We’ve all been touched by Doris as writers and friends, and wanted to do something to honor her the only way we can – with our words.
All proceeds from the sales will go to Doris’ family, because as Doris herself said: #fuckcancer.

Lea Bronsen’s story:
Ex-boxer Mike Logan struggles to put a brutal past behind and make ends meet as a bus driver. When a young runaway settles for an all-night ride, he seizes the chance to do a good deed—get her home safely. But first, they’ll drive around and talk.
What he doesn’t anticipate is that this broken night angel is also a sexy little minx needing a lot more…and not just the gentle kind.

EMOTIONAL BUT A BEAUTIFUL READ
This was an emotional read for me. Not because of the stories but because of why this anthology was written. 😦 Each story was unique and I loved each one. Some were a short and I’m hoping to maybe see more added to the stories in the future. All beautifully written to help the family of an author who is held near and dear to a lot of people, Doris O’Connor. She may be gone now but she will always be in our hearts. If you like really great stories by some of the best authors around, pick a copy of this anthology up.

ENHANCE EACH OF THE SERIES
A great collection of novellas that enhance each of these series. It’s a delightful look into each of their worlds. The proceeds also benefit Doris O’Connor’s family, since her passing.
