To finish off their spectacular Valentine offerings, Changeling Press and author Kate Douglas present a spectacular tale of love in My Valentine.

Exactly one year earlier on Valentine's Day, Ginny had given birth to a perfect little baby boy. He'd been born with the cord around his neck and her horrible husband Richard had refused to let her name him and or grieve over his death. Instead he beat her every day until he died. It didn't matter now though. All that mattered was today she would join her son in Heaven. She placed the handmade card she'd made for her beautiful baby on a table, walked out to the porch, sat down and waited for the bitter winds of North Dakota's winter weather to take their toll.

He was freezing. One moment he was in heaven, basking in the sameness of every day and the next he was on earth, freezing. Valentine didn't know why he'd been sent back to earth, but he wasn't going to complain, even if for once he did miss the warmth. How he found the little ramshackle cabin and stable in the midst of the blizzard he didn't know, but he was certainly going to take advantage of them. After taking care of his horse, he climbed the steps into the cabin and almost tripped over a woman. In an instant he knew she was the reason he'd been sent back to earth.

Easily, the most emotional, beautiful and unforgettable novella I've read this year, My Valentine is simply breathtaking. Kate spins a tale to remind us of the true meaning behind the commercialism of St. Valentine's Day. Hers is a gift beyond description; she combines emotion and eroticism perfectly, creating a story that will stay with you long after you've finished reading it.
