Giving Thanks (Fruit of the Forbidden Tree #2)

The smoldering second installment in the "Fruit of the Forbidden Tree" series! When her father marries Ben's mother, young Alexa yearns for her family to feel complete again. Ben has different ideas. Cold and distant, he keeps Alexa at arm's length for years, never giving her a chance to be a part of his life. By the time they hit college, it seems all hope for a civil relationship is lost.

But on her first holiday weekend home, Alexa finds herself at the mercy of unusual circumstances. Stuck at home alone with Ben, the pair are forced to confront each other, and Alexa finally discovers the reasons behind Ben's longtime hostility towards her. Soon she may regret knowing the truth...or will she be thankful to have her most burning questions answered at last?

GIVING THANKS is a searing glimpse at the thin line between hatred and passion, friends and enemies, and blood and water.
