...Walking swiftly, she rounded the corner to see the partial devastation of her complex. Her steps slowed. The burned-out shell on one end contrasted the waterlogged end before her.

In front, a lone fire engine hummed on the parking lot. Its occupants appeared to do a sweep to ensure flare-ups remained contained. ZeLisa darted forward. Yellow tape roped the whole building, keeping her barred from entering her condo. A surreptitious look and she fondled the tape, prepared to raise it up.

“I wouldn’t do that, if I were you.”

Bent to sneak beneath, she halted at the voice of caution at her rear.

ZeLisa pivoted to look at Hank. He had shed his outer jacket, and stood in front of her in his suspendered over-pants and boots. The storm in his eyes lessened. She felt a calming effect as he walked over. “This is a salvage expedition, Hank.”

“Do you see those people over there?” He pointed to the crowd surrounding the Red Cross van. “They have that same request, ZeLisa. But, due to safety concerns, the answer is the same. No entry is permitted.”

ZeLisa let the yellow ribbon drop. “Was anyone hurt?” Just saying the word “hurt” reminded her of the discomfort. Baited, she readjusted her broken arm.

“I’m happy to say no. No one was injured.” ZeLisa noted something different in the sound of his voice. A tinge of relief overshadowed the edgy clip it held earlier.

It was cold outside. But Hank’s expression made her swelter. Stammering, she confessed, “I-I’m glad you’re okay.”

He hooked his thumbs in his suspenders, his gaze intense. “What’re you going to do now?”

Blurb:
Now that Dr. ZeLisa Tobias has survived an IED attack and a stint of homelessness, nothing will prevent her from achieving her goals (her “Three B’s”). Then, the veterinarian makes a house call on Halloween night. Face to face with a man from her past, she must deal with his feelings of betrayal and, later, a series of rash misfortune that threatens her newfound stability.

Firefighter Hank Streeter knows his call to the animal hospital is a mistake the instant he answers the door. The doctor has arrived. And—heartbreak is her name.

Will deception, doubt, and a run of bad luck curse their accidental reunion? Or will Hank convince ZeLisa that a marriage of convenience is love’s ultimate balm?
