ChelleLee C. * 2 Healing Kiss is the first in an exciting trilogy following an athletic, caring, but smart aleck seventeen-year-old named JenaLeigh Perkins. For the first book, nothing in Jena's life excites or even interests her anymore. What else could she possibly need? She has the perfect boyfriend, the captain's spot on the cheerleading squad, and even offers for cheerleading scholarships. However, she feels nothing but friendship for her boyfriend, hates cheerleading, and starts to think love is a fluke. She goes through life as expected until she involuntarily kisses some random guy named Gabriel, who happens to be part of an ancient race that is thought to be extinct. The spark between them is undeniable. It awakens something inside her and puts excitement back into her life. That is, until Jena is thrown into the middle of a war within the race where both sides want her. One side wants to protect her while the other side wants to kill her. She can't help but wonder if her stumbling upon this race is coincidence or fate. Perhaps her boring life wasn't so bad after all, and maybe--just maybe--love is real.
