The Boy Next Door
by Adrianna Dane

Side by side, heart touching heart, until the day he left without a word...
After fifteen years, he comes back to the street where he grew up, to the memories of the girl he loved passionately, and the terrible secrets of the house he hated. Yet he could never forget the angel who shielded him from his living hell, and the treehouse, their safe haven.
The treehouse still stands, but will her love have survived his abandonment after all these years, even if he’d had no other choice?

Read what the reviewers are saying...
"5 Stars!...This poignant tale of lost love is one that tugs at your heart. Ms. Dane masterfully weaves a variety of emotions into a story that is short enough to easily read in one sitting (which I did!) and long enough to keep your interest...an emotional roller coaster of a story that is full of pain, betrayal, loneliness and love. What more could you ask for?"--Trang Black, Just Erotic Romance Reviews
"5 Flags!...Nothing I say can do this story justice. It is an absolutely beautiful story that is masterfully written. I was deeply touched by the love between Jo and Reed and their desire and ability to communicate after fifteen years of grief and sadness. The passion between them was also intense and the love scenes sizzled. This [is] a very mature story about two people possessing a deep and profound love for each other--the depth of their emotion was enough to bring tears to my eyes...Thank you for sharing their story with us, Ms. Dane. I recommend that everyone read this story--it truly warms the heart and soothes the soul."--Kerin, Euro-Reviews
"4.5 Blue Ribbons!...An emotional story that deals with the sensitive subject of abuse—both physical and psychological...The one endearing thing during the entire story is the tree house that was Reed's haven as a child and is still present when he comes back. The love scenes have a certain romantic yet poignant aspect to them. Adrianna Dane has penned a great book that readers are sure to enjoy."--Angel, Romance Junkies
"4 Kisses!...Adrianna Dane has done it again with this short tale of love that lasts through time...These characters more than make up for the fifteen years they've been apart...What a delightful story of a love so strong it lasts through years of absenteeism."--D.D. Blackman, Romance Divas
"3 Cups!...Ms. Dane did a terrific job conveying the anquish of her characters. Josie and Reed's pain threaten to squeeze your heart from the first page...Not to mention that...blisteringly hot pages are sure to keep your eyes glued to the screen."--Jen, Coffee Time Romance
"5 Hearts!...This is a fascinating short read, and I highly recommend it. I was caught up with both main characters immediately, and impressed with their depths and insight. The situations are realistic and true-to-life, and every reader, I am sure, will be hoping and praying for a happy conclusion."--Annie, The Romance Studio
Read a short excerpt...
“Reed Barnett,” she said again, trying to convince herself he really stood there.
It had been the eyes. When he took off the dark glasses and she’d seen his eyes, she’d known. They were the same eyes that had haunted her dreams over the years. Eyes she would never forget—dark midnight blue rimmed with thick, velvet black eyelashes.
There’d been times when he looked at her she’d felt like she was enclosed in a thick velvet cloak, soft and warm, wrapped around her, stroking against her skin.
He was older, and there were fine lines near his eyes and at the corners of his mouth. His thick, wavy dark hair was sprinkled with silver lights. Maturity had added depth to the boy. Solid, hard muscle stretched the leather coat across his broad shoulders. Her gaze traveled downward to lean, narrow hips encased in black, figure-molding jeans. He’d always looked great in his worn blue jeans; now was no different.
“It’s been a long time, Jo.” His deep, raspy voice reminded her of autumn late night walks through the fallen leaves, the smell of burning logs and crackling bonfires. And his warm hands exploring her body beneath a bulky sweater as she sat between his hard thighs.
For the first time in a very long time her body responded in ways she’d only ever experienced with Reed. Desire gripped her. Her nipples beaded beneath the old, faded T-shirt she wore, and liquid heat flooded her pussy as a burgeoning fire began to spark to life in her belly. She grasped the open door more tightly, to keep herself from reaching out to him, to see if he was real or just a figment of her vivid imagination…
