BLURB:
Russell Walker’s life
was spared when his truck veered off the road and flipped. When he wakes after
surgery, he can only assume the medicines are making him see things, because
the woman he loved—who broke his heart—is taking his vitals.
Chelsea Quinn has spent the past four years keeping clear of Russell Walker after she married another man and had a baby. Now she is thrust back into his life as his caretaker, and living with his family when her ex-husband is let out of prison.
Some heartbreaks are too severe to recover from, and Russell is fighting every feeling he has as not to get his heart broken again. But sometimes the pull of love is just too strong, especially when the lives of those you love are threatened, and someone is looking for revenge.

EXCERPT
Every time they touched his IV it made him sick. They said
anesthesia would do that to a person although he was distinctly under the
impression that when they gave you anesthesia it was so you wouldn’t feel
anything. Why the hell did he still hurt so much and why was he throwing up?
He lurched again just as the door to his room opened and
Phillip Smythe walked in.
“Bad timing, man,” he said as he laid back against his
pillows.
“Food isn’t that bad here,” Phillip joked.
“I hate this. I freaking hate it,” he said taking the wet
rag the nurse had brought him and wiping his mouth. “The only good thing in my
day was my nurse. Well one of them.”
Phillip smiled as he pulled a chair closer to the bed and
sat down. “Chelsea?”
“How’d you know that?”
“I talked to her. Her car died. I jumped it.”
Russell squeezed his eyes shut. “She knows how to do that. I
taught her.”
“Sure, but she was in a hurry,” he said. “That’s what
friends are for, right?”
Russell set his bucket on the bed table and rested back.
“She didn’t seem to want to be friends with me,” he admitted. “She transferred
to another floor just so she didn’t have to be in here.”
“I don’t think she knew what to do when you told her you
loved her.”
Russell winced. “I did say that, didn’t I?”
“She said you did.”
He looked at the IV bag to his side. “Truth serum pumped
right into my veins huh?”
