When attraction leads to her heart's desire, she knows she's in trouble.

Music instructor Ruby Haynes is ready for the night to be over. Her Halloween plans are ruined, so she's handing out candy to kids at her family's music school, a converted Victorian with a mysterious history. Then Brad Emerson and his feisty grandmother show up with a wild story on their lips—there's a secret room in the attic, which presumably holds Gran's long-lost childhood doll. Though reluctant, Ruby lets them tour the house, never expecting she would get stuck in the attic with Brad, a man hot enough to melt through her defenses.

Are they destined for one steamy night together, or is it the start of something more?
