This was another great peek into the dedicated and fun-loving Winston family. Hart, like all the Winston men, is a great character. He is alpha with that strong sense of family loyalty and caring that I love.

Breaking the Ice by Deidre Martin
Lennie is newly arrived in New York to begin fashion design school when she meets Sebastian. He is also new to New York, having landed a job with the New York Blades as a hockey player. They agree to sight see together as friends, but both realize there is more than friendship between them.

This is an exciting peek into the world of a professional athlete and the lady he is falling in love with.

Double Booked by Elizabeth Bevarly This is a good story about opposites attracting and how their differences can also be their salvation.

Original Zin by Christie Ridgway
John Henry has been ordered by his doctor to not work so much and relax more. He meets Zinnia in Napa where his company is relocating. Zinnia is working two jobs, trying to overcome her family's reputation. She doesn't have much self-confidence and views herself as the town does. Looks like Zinnia is just what the doctor ordered!

A very moving story where Zinnia learns that sometimes you can't see what is right in front on you because of dwelling on the past, and John Henry realizes that there is more to life than work.

While some of the stories were more engaging than others, overall the anthology was a pleasant read. The central theme of mistaken identities was well done. Lori Foster's novella was by far the best with her strong character development and heartfelt family values.
