Drawn together by their love of animals, Aria DeLuca and Caleb Hawkins burn for each other. They never suspected that malignant forces were successfully plotting Caleb’s ruin from the moment he entered her life.

EXCERPT (Exclusive Excerpt):

Caleb groaned and flipped over on his hard, motel mattress. Seconds later he flipped the other way. He had known he wouldn’t sleep before he ever even lay down. Sighing, he turned on the bedside lamp and sat up.

Melissa, the woman who was on maternity leave, would come back to the clinic in four weeks time. That’s when his temporary job with Aria would end, and he didn’t want it to end. As ridiculous as it sounded, he had fallen hard for Aria De Luca. Having her in his arms tonight had been the sweetest form of torture he could imagine, but he liked more than just Aria’s looks. He liked her kind heart and the way she treated the animals just as much.

Scrambling to his feet, he left his room and went to the vending machines outside his door to buy a pack of crackers. Just because the doc was a kind woman didn’t mean he was anything more to her than an employee. All he’d seen in her eyes tonight was pleasure over a nice evening dancing and talking to friends.

It was better that way. Even if she did feel the same way he did, what could he offer her? He didn’t have a penny to his name or any prospects for the future. Besides that, her daddy didn’t like him.

Be careful. Don’t let yourself get hurt again.
