発行者による作品情報
A sizzling new romance about a firefighter who reunites with an old flame and tries to rekindle the passion they once felt.
When firefighter Kal Donovan transfers to the Tactical Rescue Team, he's determined to succeed by giving work one hundred percent of his attention. This proves more difficult at his ten-year high school reunion when he runs into Hannah Clark, his first love. She's still the smart, funny, beautiful girl he loved in high school, but everything has changed. She's divorced, has a son, and has zero interest in exploring an old romance.
Hannah has moved back home after a disastrous end to a marriage that never should have been. Now her only focus is getting her hair salon up and running, and making sure her son is happy. She doesn't have time for love—especially not with Kal. She intends to look forward, not backward, and Kal is most definitely part of her past.
However as Hannah and Kal start spending time together, Hannah realizes that what she's feeling for him isn't nostalgia, but red-hot attraction. Kal's intent on showing her what it's like to be cared for, romanced, and consumed with passion—and Hannah loves it. But she wonders if she has the courage to risk her heart again, even as Kal vows not to lose her a second time.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Burton delivers her reliable blend of heat and sweet in the irresistible third Brotherhood by Fire romance (after Ignite on Contact). Kal Donovan is a proud firefighter and paramedic, following in the footsteps of his adoptive brothers and father. A new addition to the technical rescue team of the Fort Lauderdale, Fla., fire department, Kal's still contending with newbie hazing when he attends his 10-year high school reunion—and runs into Hannah Clark, the girlfriend he's never gotten over. After divorcing her first husband, Hannah returned to Fort Lauderdale with her seven-year-old son, Oliver, to open a beauty salon. Kal broke her heart when they were teens, and she's wary about getting involved with him again. But soon, their combustive chemistry overcomes them both—expertly characterized by Burton as she ratchets up the heat factor — and they must decide if they're willing to risk their hearts all over again. Burton has a fine touch with this second-chance romance, not shying away from the difficulties of dating as a single mother and believably depicting how Oliver and Kal bond. The taut plot, expert characterization, and raft of lovable supporting characters (especially Hannah's sassy mother, Paige) make this a winner.
