First Instinct

Best friend. Rescuer. Crutch. As Beth overcomes every college student’s worst nightmare, will she add “lover” to the names she has for Nick?

 

Life-long friends Beth Carlyle and Nick Hammond haven’t ever pushed the limits of their relationship, but in one shattering night, everything changes. Nick becomes Beth’s anchor as she pulls the pieces of herself together. With her trust fractured, there’s only one place she feels safe—in his arms. New desires ignite, but her heart is a tangled mess. How can she know what’s real?

 

Nick will do whatever it takes to help Beth recover, no matter the cost to himself, but in the face of undeserved consequences, he may be the one who needs saving. Protecting the man she loves means bringing her nightmare into the light. Will she find the courage to reveal the truth before Nick pays the ultimate price?
