Midnight Dreams

My fake date with the grumpy single-dad firefighter turns dangerously real when sparks fly.

He’s a grumpy, single-dad firefighter who’s vying for a promotion to fire chief. I’m the woman who shows up at the fire house in a curve-hugging red dress and a box of baked goods. After one fake date, we both get what we want… or so we think.

​​​​​We play our parts a little too well. So well, in fact, that his boss insists we keep up the charade. Kisses linger far longer than they should, and every touch leaves me wanting more.

Then there’s his little girl—sweet, bright, and determined to wedge her way straight into my heart. Suddenly, pretending isn’t just about fooling the town. It’s about protecting feelings that are starting to feel dangerously real.

Because the more we fake it, the harder it is to remember what’s pretend…and when desire ignites, the line between make-believe and forever goes up in flames.
