I fell for the grumpy fire captain who saved my son. I didn't realize how risky it would be to love him.
Boone Kallas is older, stronger, and too protective for a quiet teacher like me.
In the small town of Calloway Creek, avoiding him is impossible.
A flood traps us together. He repairs my son’s fort, remembers my coffee, and keeps showing up.
One kiss turns into one night. Sunday dinners are ours. My son starts to see Boone as family.
Two pink lines make that dream real.
Boone falls first.
I buried my husband after an accident on an icy road. Boone runs toward danger.
When a winter storm traps him on a call, every fear claws free.
I cannot survive losing another man.
I'm now carrying the fire captain’s baby. My son sees him as his hero. Losing Boone doesn't just break me. It breaks the family my son already claims as his.
