Healing Hearts

Brianna Denton walked the night and crawled the pubs searching for her sister's murderer. Drugs and alcohol drove her twin to prostitution in the shadows and rat holes of the underbelly of North Beach society.  Brianna lived her sister's life on the tight edge of the raw reality until she pushed someone too hard, too fast.

Tatianna's life drew Brianna into the bowels of the dark underground society, but to who's destiny—her own or Tatianna's?

Someone wanted her dead too.

He'd seen her on the streets, in the flea bag bars and pool halls the midnight scum frequented. She fascinated him with her Mediterranean beauty and her disdain. She was fast, unapologetic, but her curves were slow and yielding. He ached for her until one night slithered into the wee hours of the early morning at Blu's Balls. The smoke in the pool hall hung in the air like a noose from the ceiling.

She wanted a bath but she wanted the blond-haired, blue-eyed man with the heart-shaped face and the gentle mouth more, first.

Dr Ben James recognized Brianna immediately when the EMT's brought her into his ER. He hadn't seen her since that night—the night she picked him.

Can he save her life? If he can't, can he forget her?
