How well do you ever REALLY know another person? Their secrets? Their fears? Their doubts?
Meet Thompson. The real Thompson. Underneath this polite chauffeur's exterior beats the heart of a warrior. A warrior who has been through hell and back. A warrior trying desperately to deal with the demons of his past. Trying desperately to bury the disappointments of his life, his actions, his failures.
Meet Maria. Sweet. Creative. Funny. With a heart of gold. Even confined to a wheelchair because of an accident, no one could define her as disabled. She longs for all the things any young woman longs for: love, connection, maybe a family. But for now, she's put that aside.
In the best-selling series, High Stakes Seduction, you got a glimpse of Thompson and Maria... the parts of themselves they normally show to the world. Now, come discover the private sides of two people struggling to leave their pasts behind. Two people fighting the limitations others have imposed on them. Two people whose lives and souls can only be Healed by Love.
Don’t miss this sexy and intense first book in the High Stakes Seduction spin-off series, Healed by LOVE by best-selling authors, Ami LeCoeur and Elle Dawson.
Kim's 4 Star Review
Maria may be in a wheelchair but you’d never know. She a woman in love and would do anything for
him. Thompson isn’t just any guy, his
employer is Maria’s sister Angela’s boyfriend Antonio. This is both a good and bad thing for the
couple. On top of that there are secrets
that are trying to come out. Will the
obstacles that face this young couple tear them apart or bring them together?
I was given this book in exchange for an honest review, and
boy it’s a great start to the series.
We meet both Maria and Thompson in the High Stakes Series
and got to know them a little. I know I
was rooting for them to get together but there was a story behind each of
them. Maria is a sweet, fun-loving woman
who doesn’t let the fact she is in a wheelchair stop her from living life. The woman has tenacity, especially when it
comes to Thompson. He is the strong
silent type who doesn’t let a lot of people in but when he does, he protects
them with everything he has.
As I started their story I was excited that they got their
own book. There was just so much we
didn’t get from the High Stakes Series that I wanted, but fell in love with the
characters during the series. This we
get to know both Maria and Thompson along with Emily, Thompson’s daughter who
is also in a wheel chair. Getting to
know them and how well they mesh together had my heart falling deeper. The three would make a perfect family but
there are stories that need to be told and secrets that are kept and need to
come out. Just when you think you know
what’s coming next for them a twist is thrown and you’re left wanting to know
what’s going to happen next. This book
is left with one big cliff hanger that leaves you wondering what the heck just
happened. The writing collaboration
between Ami and Elle was great and I look forward to what lies ahead in the
next book.
AMI LECOEUR
Like most romance writers, Ami LeCoeur is a romantic at heart, but in her heart it's the classic Romanticism of the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
She is also a painter, glass artist, and award winning poet, as well as a writer.
When she isn't traveling, she lives on California's Redwood Coast with her husband and two kitties. She loves her wonderful ocean view, and when the fog comes in - as it always does - she's either curled up with a good book, or busy writing.
If you like Ami's stories, please let your friends know.

Sharing ones thoughts on paper is an intimate experience, and should not be taken lightly. Some days I fear this process, as my mind can be a scary place to dwell. Other days I realize I’m not alone in this journey, and although the very action of expelling ones deepest thoughts onto paper is intensely personal, it is deeply healing. Funny how that works.
The ideas for my books came at a time when I was hurting, and needed a release that only writing could bring. As a romance lover, I couldn’t make myself write of new love, when it is easy to be in love, easy to be mad for each other, easy to have sex every night. Instead, I found a need inside me to re-connect couples, to shine a light of inspiration into a bedroom that has grown cold.
So I will continue to write as Elle Dawson, and be a mom, sister, daughter and friend in my real life. And read books that take me away or speed up my heart.
