My Grumpy Firefighter Hero
I was supposed to save her. Not fall for her.
Pulling Jules from that wreck wasn’t easy.
It dragged me right back to the loss that changed everything.
She’s chaos wrapped in sunshine—loud, stubborn, impossible to ignore.
And thanks to her overprotective friends, I got voluntold to stay with her while she recovers.
One roof.
One bed.
One very bad idea.
She doesn’t know how close I came to walking away.
One mistake on my watch already cost lives—
And if the department finds out I’m breaking protocol to take care of her, I could lose the only thing I have left.
But she laughs.
She trusts me.
And every time she looks at me,
I forget the rules I swore to live by.
And for the first time in years, I want something just for myself.
I just never meant for it to be her.
Because if I’m not careful,
Loving her might be the one fire I don’t survive.

OMG! I read this as an ARC read. What a wonderful story of loss, sadness and love.
I fell in love with this book and finished it in a day.
When Lucas found Jules on the side of the road in a car accident after a wedding he saves her and knows right away she is the one for him.
He stayed in the hospital and then cared for her while she was healing and helped with her PT.
They fell in love and rest is history.
