Book excerpt: Doctor Heidi Morgan is off limits. She’s the definition of forbidden and I hate that I want her anyway. I may be forced to see my new resident each day at the hospital where we work, but I won’t be forced into feeling something for the woman who is an unwelcome reminder of the worst day of my life. Heidi gets under my skin, testing the limits of my patience and my control. WIth our past, it should be easy to push her away; to convince myself not to trust her. It definitely should not be so hard to resist the attraction I’ve ignored for so long, especially since I’m her boss. Only restraint is never easy. Her brilliant mind, compassionate heart and seductively sweet smile that keep me up at night with thoughts I really shouldn’t be having about someone who works for me, let alone someone I have every reason to hate. Yet with every word we exchange, every touch we share, the fire she’s ignited in me is shifting from frustration into something else. Something far more risky. It’s starting to feel like a matter of time before I lose control and let her into my heart. I just have to find a way not to lose myself at the same time. Hate To Want You is perfect for fans of enemies to lovers, medical settings - with only one bed, forbidden romance, strong willed heroines and heroes who know when to admit they’re wrong. If you love steamy small town romance centered around a big family who love to get in each other’s business, spice and swoon and a guaranteed HEA, this is the book for you. It is a standalone, and the second full length novel in the Donnellys of Dogwood Cove series. Please note this book does contain scenes involving pediatric illness and death in a hospital setting.
