Hard Habit to Break

Book excerpt: In this classic story from celebrated romance author Linda Cajio, a good girl and a devilish rogue discover a passion that’s impossible to give up. When Matt Callahan arrives in the peaceful town of Hopewell, Vermont, he immediately turns heads. But most people believe that the handsome stranger, with his obscure motives, is nothing but trouble. Any respectable girl would do well to keep away from him—but the combination of devastating good looks, cocky confidence, and passionate intentions make Matt difficult to resist. Smart, respectable bank manager Liz O’Neal is a model citizen in the Hopewell community. Her upright image would forever be tarnished if she got involved with someone like Matt Callahan. But when an instant attraction leads to an illicit rendezvous, Matt leaves her senses tingling with every stolen kiss. Although she’s tormented by the thought of ruining her hard-won reputation, Liz is certain of one thing: Matt leaves her breathless and hungry for more. Includes a special message from the editor, as well as excerpts from these Loveswept titles: The Escape Diaries, The Devil’s Thief, and The Magic.
