After a very public breakup, a summer at her family’s lake house is exactly what heiress Rachel Henderson needs.
But after setting her mother’s expensive curtains on fire, Rachel is saved by a very handsome fireman. Too bad he’s also the grumpiest guy she’s ever met.
Rachel keeps running into the fireman around the lake, and when she breaks through his tetchy façade, she finds herself totally falling for him. And it seems he feels the same.
But as summer draws to a close, Rachel must decide: Will she head back to the city, or stay by the lake forever.

PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Bestseller Murphy (You Were Never Not Mine) scorches the pages of this steamy small-town romance. After a tremendously embarrassing breakup, pampered Manhattan socialite Rachel Henderson retreats to her parents' lake house in Foxglove Bay, Calif.—and accidentally sets the house ablaze with an errant candle. Coming to her rescue is straitlaced firefighter Wyatt McKinney (whom Rachel dubs Captain Grumpy Pants), single father to adorable, scene-stealing six-year-old Dot. When Rachel's furious father cuts off her access to family funds, a local woman named Paige Lawrence offers her a place to crash. To everyone's surprise, Rachel falls in love with small-town life and begins a sexy fling with Captain Grumpy Pants himself. Wyatt and Rachel's explosive chemistry ignites fast and burns hot, but their conflicting priorities—and Wyatt's dangerous profession—may keep them from forming a lasting relationship. Murphy's playful prose complements her taut plotting and the sex scenes smolder. Meanwhile, an endearing supporting cast—especially Wyatt's playboy brother, Nate, Paige's longtime crush—adds emotional ballast. Readers are sure to be titillated.
