Brenna Halsted's last photo shoot has gone terribly wrong, leaving the fashion model mentally and physically scarred.  The love and friendship of her platonic and long-time friend, Drew Constantine, can not give her respite from the phantom pains she feels or mend her damaged confidence.  His declarations of love can't thwart her plans to find sexual release and, hopefully, freedom from her pain in the arms of a mystery man, Kostas Drakos, provided by Madame Eve.  Kostas has loved Brenna from afar for years, and he wants to gift Brenna with a night of happiness freeing her to soar above the mental and physical pain she feels.  This is a gift he desperately wants to give Brenna, but for her the gift could come at a high price.EROTIC HEALING is a prime example of why I've become addicted to the "One Night Stand Series." Becca Dale has authored a superb tale of beauty lost and a damaged soul in the character of Brenna Halsted.  Her beauty is damaged and confidence is so shattered she can't see the true love Drew offers her.  Drew Constantine is a wonderful character with charm and compassion who only wants the best for his friend, even to the point of encouraging her to try Madame Eve, though he regrets it later and attempts to talk her out of it. Kostas Drakos is a dream of character whose sole desire to heal Brenna will melt your heart.Ms. Dale's writing is exquisite in the sexual scenes between Kostas and Brenna as he struggles to control his growing passion and maintain his emotional distance while using sweet sexual torment to help Brenna break through the physical and emotional barriers preventing her from getting past the accident and living again. These scenes are graphic, intense, but also, extremely touching.There is a happily ever after for Brenna, although for a moment I thought Madame Eve had lost her touch.  I haven't read any of the latest entries in the "One Night Stand Series."  I hope the later ones are up to par with those I have read and reviewed thus far.  I can only say my addiction to the "One Night Stand Series" continues. Heaven help me, I'll be broke by the time I've read them all.
