He holds me like I matter, touches me like I’m cherished and kisses me like he loves me…
For as long as I can remember, Lachlan West has been my brother’s best friend and the love of my life. Trouble is, he kissed me four years ago and then never spoke to me again.
I was doing great pretending he doesn’t exist until I was assigned to write an article about former college athletes and I learn that the sexy single-dad is my first interview.
Determined to wow my editor with an amazing sportsball piece. (Have I mentioned I know nothing about sports?) I head to Ember Falls, ready to face my fears—and the man I love.
The grumpy quarterback turned fireman wants nothing to do with me or my article. Yet, somehow I persuade him to let me follow him around for a few weeks, and even if he said yes just to get rid of me, I’ll take it.
But the longer I stay in his small town, the more complicated our story gets. The boundaries we set fall to the ground—along with our clothes.
He holds me like I matter, touches me like I’m cherished and kisses me like he loves me.
We both know I have to leave Ember Falls, and he’ll never follow—I only wish I could write a different ending to our story.

EXCERPT:
I walk up to the door and knock.
I can’t imagine anyone actually paying to stay in this place, especially driving a new car.
“Who’s there?” a vaguely familiar feminine voice calls from the other side.
“This is the fire department. Can you please open the door?”
“No, thank you. I’m fine.”
I jerk my head back. Well, okay. “Ma’am, I need to check on the safety of the electrical panel as well as any fire alarms installed.”
“I see them. We’re good.”
Is this woman for real? I knock again. “Please don’t make me call the police department and have them come.”
I hear a grunt, and then the door flies open only to have me rock back on my heels. It’s been four years since I’ve seen Ainsley MacKinley. The woman I’ve loved for far too long. The woman whose heart I broke, breaking my own at the same time.
For four years I’ve kept away from her, pretending she was still the girl next door who was much too young.
This girl—this woman—is nothing like that image, and it knocks me on my ass.
Instead, Ainsley is slender with curves in every place a woman should have them. Her hair is long, pulled to the side in a braid, and she’s wearing leggings and a crop top with glasses perched on her nose.
Only they don’t make her look dorky. She looks smart and fucking stunning.
“Hi, Lach. Good to see you. Sorry, I’m working and I didn’t know that you were stopping by. As you can see, the place is perfectly lovely and safe. I’m sure I’ll see you around.”
Before the most beautiful pain in my ass can shut the door, I push my hand out to stop it from closing. “Why in the hell are you in Ember Falls, and what in God’s name are you doing staying in this shithole of a cabin, Ainsley?”
