Book Description
DonBeing a firefighter is not just a job for me. It's a mission. As soon as that bell rings and I put on my protective gear, I'm all business. One false move could cost a life. Rescue Four is the best in Williamsport.One night a deadly fire almost kills my best friend and squad mate, Corey. A fire I know is the result of arson. As the squad investigator, it's my responsibility to get to the bottom of what happened that night. When the leading investigator at headquarters shows himself useless, I resort to working with Jocelyn, Corey's twin sister. It's enough figuring out how I'm going to solve this case while also keeping her safe. The biggest challenge is figuring out how to get her to trust that I won't hurt her like the men in her past.JocelynMen can't be trusted when it comes to matters of the heart. That's not me being bitter. It's a reality that I've learned from experience. Now, I use my skills as a private investigator to help women find out the truth. I'm happy doing it, and it affords me a good living.While I don't hate all men, I do believe most are unapologetic cheaters. As such, I don't have any false notions of riding off into the sunset with one or getting my happily ever after. It's an easy stance to keep up as long as I stay away from the one man who brings out a longing in me I didn't know was still there.Distance proves difficult when I discover someone is after Rescue Four, and that same someone is responsible for my brother's injury. Once I step in to help Don, I have to remind myself falling for him is not an option. No matter how many nights he ends up in my bed.Love only leads to heartbreak.Unfortunately, I soon have to contend that Don is not only good at putting out fires. He's adept when it comes to starting them too. The fiery blaze of want and desire he ignites.

Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
In Dundas' assured hands, one man's search for answers makes for a lyrical, riveting meditation on memory.--EW One man knows the connection between two extraordinary acts of arson, fifteen years apart, in his Montana hometown--if only he could remember it. Having lost much of his memory from a traumatic brain injury sustained in Iraq, army veteran Matthew Rose is called back to Montana after his father's death to settle his affairs, and hopefully to settle the past as well. It's not only a blank to him, but a mystery. Why as a teen did he suddenly become sullen and vacant, abandoning the activities and people that had meant most to him? How did he, the son of hippy activists, wind up enlisting in the first place? Then on his first night back, Matthew sees a house go up in flames, and it turns out a local college student has died inside. And this event sparks a memory of a different fire, an unsolved crime from long ago, a part of Matthew's past that might lead to all the answers he's been searching for. What he finds will connect the old fire and the new, a series of long-unsolved mysteries, and a ruthless act of murder.

Book Description
If you can't stand the heat, don't walk into the fire. Danny knew his sophomore year would be stressful . . . but he didn't expect his school to burn down on the first day. To make matters worse (and they were about to get a lot worse), he -- and his three best friends -- receive an email in their inboxes from the principal of their rival, King's Academy, offering full-rides to attend the town's prestigious boarding school. Danny wants nothing to do with King's Academy and says no. Of course his mother says yes. So off he goes to be bullied and picked on for not being part of the popular and rich "in crowd." From day one at King's, Danny encounters hazing, mocking insults from girls at the "popular and pretty" table, and cafeteria food that, for such a prestigious school, tastes as if it were purchased from a military surplus supply warehouse. If he survives, Danny will have to overcome his fears of failure, rejection, and loneliness--all while standing strong in his beliefs and walking into the fire.
