When Stacy is thrown out by her mom, she seeks help from the only person she has ever really trusted.

Ray only wants to care for and protect Stacy, but when she climbs into his bed in the middle of the night looking for comfort, they both find themselves falling prey to an overwhelming attraction neither of them can deny.

Ruby Carew is the erotica pseudonym of New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Opal Carew, whose books have won several awards, including the National Readers' Choice Award (twice), the Golden Leaf Award (twice), the Golden Quill (3 times), CRA Award of Excellence, and Silken Sands.

Hi! I’m Ruby Carew. You may also know me as Opal Carew, the New York Times bestselling author of erotic romance.

As Opal I write erotic love stories that push the limits, but as Ruby I don’t know what limits are. When you crave the titillation that only the fulfillment of your wildest fantasies can give you, look no further than my short, sexy stories.

I started publishing my Ruby stories under the name Ruby Foxx, but I am republishing all of them as Ruby Carew. It’s going to take me a little time to get them all up, so please be patient. I hope to do a couple a month.
