Temptation from the Past — Cindy Gerard

An Outlaw's Heart and a Bad-Boy Grin...

Michael Hayward was the most blatantly sexy man January Stewart had ever seen! His sure, cocky smile made her insides throb with fiery need, but she knew the renowned journalist was more trouble than she could handle. Intrigued by the enigmatic lawyer who defended abused children with abandon but who seemed untouched by his seductive charm, Michael wanted to thaw January's cool demeanor and light the fuse of the a dynamite he suspected lay under her skin. Was this confident, intimidating man her worst nightmare come back to haunt her, January wondered -- or the man she could escape no longer...the one who would break down the defenses of a lifetime and cast away her pain? Michael vowed to slay her dragons and satisfy her hunger with searing embraces, but January feared that admitting the truth would mean betrayal. Could she show the warrior who'd conquered the fortress of her heart that he knew all her secrets, that she trusted in his love?
