Hold Me Until Morning (Hardcover) (Time River)

I should have known I'd be playing with fire when I met the sexy as hell woman moving in next door...<br/><br/>It was pouring rain, so I figured the neighborly thing to do would be to lend a hand.<br/><br/>I nearly dropped to my knees when I realized who she was.<br/><br/>Hailey Wagner.<br/><br/>It's been six years since I've seen her, and she's always been the one person on earth who is off limits.<br/><br/>My past sins I've kept like an ugly secret made sure of that.<br/>Too bad this single mom with the soulful eyes still makes my pulse speed the way it did back then, and I soon find our chemistry is just as strong.<br/><br/>When I find her ex threatening her, I insist on staying with Hailey and her little girl until I'm sure they're safe.<br/><br/>I thought I could handle being under her roof. Only the tension between us strains, and with one forbidden kiss, all restraint is lost. We collide in a lightning bolt of greed, the two of us locked behind her door night afternight.<br/><br/>Falling so hard I know there will be no coming back from it.<br/><br/>But being with Hailey exposes the past I've been trying to hide, and I'll do anything to protect her from it. Because if I don't?<br/><br/>We're both going to pay the consequences...
