Ainden Callaway is still reeling from the death of this best friend and fellow firefighter smokejumper Kyle. If only he could remember clearly what happened in the fire that took his friend's life, but he couldn't be sure of all the facts so clearing his name was not possible. He needed time to clear his head. Maybe time with the family. For sure what he didn't need was to jump into another fire and into the nearness of beautiful, sweet Sara. Sara couldn't give up on her dad and their nonexistent relationship. Since her mom's death it's been just the two of them. He was all she had left even if he refused to acknowledge her. Still, having his house in flames minutes after surprising him with her arrival was far from what she expected. Having Aiden brake down the front door and save the day was the icing on the cake. Aiden was the last person she ever wanted to see again. Seeing him was the reminder of all the humiliation of her high-school love gone wrong. One night. One kiss. The biggest rejection she could ever have. The man who would go with any girl refused her when she was ready to give him her all. Keeping him away was what she needed the most. Yet when he needed her, staying away was not an option. She would live her fantasy of Aiden even if it killed her. Falling for Sara was far from possible, yet the peace and understanding she brought him was all he craved amidst the chaos. The past still haunted them, but the present could save them both. A sweet love story of second chances introducing the Callaway siblings and the possibilities of new stories to come. I enjoyed this book about Sara and Aiden. Sara has always had a crush on Aiden. Something happened back when they were younger to cause a bit of stress between these two. Now, Sara is back home and Aiden has just suffered a tragedy in his life. This is the story of how they find friendship first, and then love seems to find it's way into them. I also loved the other characters in this story. No cliffhanger. Dual point of view. There is a book 2 that keeps this series about the huge Callaway family going.
