Rough Around the Edges

the long version

A dark warrior whose touch was as seductive as it was dangerous . . . Alex Jamison knew at a glance that Dr. Kristen Helton spelled trouble! The emerald-eyed physician was an outsider, a rich do-gooder he expected to run if things got rough on the mean streets he called home. Drawn to the haunted hero whose powerful body awakened a hunger too strong to resist, Kristen insisted on joining his fight to keep kids out of trouble. Could a woman who'd always played by the rules help a renegade battle the odds and win? Capturing hearts with a tale as fiercely passionate as it is wildly sensual, Pat Van Wie celebrates the mysterious gift of hope that is love's unexpected treasure. She was his equal in courage and determination, a woman as stubborn as she was beautiful, but could he ask her to share a desperate struggle that risked their future, even their lives?
