Don't Go

== Publisher Description ==
He has a son.
Ryan Matthews is a player. He's also the editor-in-chief of student-run Eyewitness News in Portland. But for all the women - and a few men - who have been in and out of his bed (and office, and the Green Room, and the newsroom couch), part of him has never gotten over the woman who left him three years ago.
And then she came back. Teresa Valdez. She came back, gave him his 3-year-old son, and left again. ICE says she's undocumented and want to put her into a camp: to send her back to a country she left when she was a baby and can't remember. She's on the run.
If Ryan wants his woman back, if he wants to care for his son, there are big changes ahead.
Book 3 in the series: Newsroom PDX.
Sex. Bad Language. Lots of politics. It's Portland - what can I say?
Released on 18 March 2021.
=== Author's Dedication ===
This is dedicated to Veronica Gomez Vilchis and to the amazing mentors of the Central Washington University Bridges Project, who taught me so much about Mexican American culture. Dreamers and the children without a country. And to all of those children I worked with, believe without a doubt that any sane country would be grateful to call you its own. May the United States regain that sanity soon.
