Dane Romano, general manager of the hotel at the center of the celebration, The Belmont Hotel in Toronto, convinces her to go ahead with the celebration anyway.

Half My Heart: A Clover Series Novella by Danielle Stewart
Back when he was eighteen, Devin Sutton lost a lot: his first love, his freedom, his hope for the future. Now, years later, his only thought is getting back at those who hurt him, back in Clover, North Carolina. But when he finds Rebecca Farrus, that first love, living a much different life than he thought, he begins to wonder if he shouldn't pursue her instead.
These stories were quite a range of characters and situations, and a taste of each author's style. Many of them relate to a series that readers may find themselves led to. Each author's story ends with a list of their other books.
