Su is confident she can keep the hot, younger search and rescue guy in his place.
They're both adult enough to have a fling while Ian is in town, and then walk away at the end of the three weeks with no strings attached. As far as Su is concerned, he can touch anything but her heart.
Ian never gets attached anyway. He never has, and for good reason. Why should Su be any different?
But Su wakes up in the middle of the night with nightmares, and not just from one thing. Ian Carello has locked away every memory that could possibly wake him at night.
When tragedy strikes, everything will be put on the line. Ian has to acknowledge the painful past he's been hiding, and he'll discover he's more attached to Su than he ever thought he could be. But that same horrific moment will make Su realize she can't afford to be tied to anyone ever again.
Once Forbidden is the third book in the steamy, angsty Jade River Sanctuary series. If you love rescue dogs, battered hearts in need of mending, and swoonworthy happily-ever-afters, you're in the right place. This series will have you turning pages and gasping out loud.
