Rescue the Night
A Hartley’s Nest Romance Book 1
by Christine DePetrillo
Genre: Small-Town Contemporary Romance


Picture

Touching Spencer—even for a millisecond—did things to my body. Wild things I could barely control.

I hate dentists. Except for Dr. Spencer Holland. It’s hard to hate him when he smiles at me, and those adorable crinkles appear at the corners of his big, brown eyes. I’m nervous as hell when he’s aiming sharp dental tools at me, but I’m also imagining how his lips would feel against mine. How his arms would feel wrapped around me. How our bodies would fit together perfectly.

I can’t actually have this sexy dentist though because he’s my brother’s best friend and totally off limits. Actually, Spencer is friends with all of my brothers—all five of them.

Oh, did I forget to mention I have five brothers? Five brothers who circle like me like a pack of protective wolves. Yeah, so anyway . . .

I’ve managed to hide my attraction to Spencer for fourteen years ever since he came to my rescue on my prom night. Lately ignoring my feelings for him, however, is a full-time job. One I’m failing at. Epically.

And there are these . . . moments when I almost believe Spencer wants me too. But that couldn’t be.

Could it?

I’m tired of being underwhelmed by every relationship I attempt with other guys. None of them measure up to Spencer, and it’s time I did something to make him mine.

Just don’t tell my brothers.


Rescue the Night is a small-town, brother's-best-friend, steamy, contemporary romance.

​ “Spencer?”
He looked up at hearing his name, hesitated for a moment, then gave me one of his warm smiles.
Don’t look at the eye corner crinkles. Don’t look at them.
But I, of course, looked at them. Because I loved them.
“Hey, Vanessa.” He shifted in his seat and rested his right hand on his knee. His suit-pants-covered knee.
Hot damn. He was wearing a dark gray suit. Looking sexier than ever and taking me back to the first time I’d seen him in a suit on that prom night. How come I felt the exact same tingle now as I did then? Shouldn’t that reaction have worn off by now?
He wasn’t wearing a tie. Just a plain, white, button-down dress shirt under his suit jacket. The first button was undone. His legs were long and muscular in the tailored pants and the urge to crawl onto his lap exploded inside me.
Down girl. Why did I always have to tame the wild beast inside me that desperately wanted a taste of Spencer Holland?
“What are you doing here?” I asked in lieu of the question I wanted to ask which was Where can we go to get naked?
Spencer pointed to the stage. “Watching a musical. What are you doing here?”
Exercising restraint, apparently.

Christine DePetrillo
can often be found hugging trees, conversing with dragonflies, and walking barefoot through sun-warmed soil. She finds joy in listening to the wind, bathing in moonlight, and breathing in the fragrances of things that bloom. If she had her way, the sky would be the only roof over her head.

Her love of nature seeps into every story she tells. As does her obsession with bearded mountain men who build, often smell like sawdust, and know how to cherish the women they love. Today she writes tales meant to make you laugh, maybe make you sweat, and definitely make you believe in the power of love.

She lives in Vermont with her husband and many woodland creatures who defend her fiercely from all evils.
