Elise wishes she were invisible. Roan wishes he wasn't.
ROAN
A Halloween party scarier than anything in the movies turned me into a monster. Invisibility isn't the superpower people think it is. It's a curse. Since it's unknown if I can spread the condition to others, I'm destined to be unseen and alone.
Until the night I post a grumpy In Search Of ad, and get a single reply. I don't know why Elise agreed to my self-serving demands of complete visual anonymity, but my life became instantly fuller. I don't have to see her to fall for her. But I know it can never be more than long-distance feelings and inspiration for my right hand.
Until the day Elise surprises me by breaking our anonymity agreement and shows up in my coffee shop... and gets a monstrous surprise in return.
ELISE
Appearances matter. I learned that after an accident left one side of my face heavily scarred. I'm used to the staring. The pointing and whispering. Kids asking their parents if I'm a monster. I'm also used to being alone, because the dating pool dried up the day I lost half my beauty.
I was job hunting the night I found Roan's In Search Of post. It's been years since I read a singles ad, and I still don't know why I did. Call it coincidence, fate, or the universe doing something to balance the scales. It was as if Roan wrote that ad for me.
My friends think Roan must be a hideous ogre to be hiding behind his no pictures, no contact rule. I don't care what he looks like. Roan and I click in every way. He doesn't need to touch me in person to satisfy me. But I'd like him to.
Six months after agreeing to his conditions, I want to break them. I'm ready to take the biggest risk of my life-rejection by the man I love. I want all of Roan Byrne. The good, the sexy, and if he does turn out to be an ogre, the ugly. I only hope that when he sees me, he feels the same way...
