Heidi Morgan is off limits. As a resident at my hospital, working with me as her attending, she is – by my rules – the definition of forbidden. She’s also an unwelcome reminder of a ghost from my past. That reminder makes it easy to push her away; to convince myself not to trust her, or worse, give in to the intense pull I feel whenever she’s around. Or at least, it should. Instead, her seductively sweet smile and perfect curves keep me up at night with dirty thoughts I really shouldn’t be having. I should hate this woman. I should hate the way she tests me, and challenges me, pushing every limit of my restraint. Yet with every word we exchange, every touch we share, the fire she’s ignited in me is shifting from frustration into something else. Something far more dangerous. It’s starting to feel like only a matter of time before I lose control and let her in my heart. I just have to find a way not to lose myself at the same time.
