Saving John’s Heart by Leah Laurens

How could someone I barely knew cause my cheeks to flush and my temperature to rise?
There was no denying the attraction between us, but he was a dangerous man
He was brought to hospital badly beaten
I was the emergency room nurse attending to him
I had no idea what he’d done to land himself on his current path
As he poured out his heart to me about his hardships, there was a kindness in him that showed through his amber eyes.
I secretly hoped that I could be the reason he turned his life around
Whatever spark was between us, it could lead to more trouble than he might be up for
John has his past, which I could forgive.
Could he see past my secrets, though?
I’d never been able to outrun them.
