It takes a certain kind of man to stand out among the Bachelor Firemen
of San Gabriel.
Firefighter Derek "Vader" Brown is one of a kind--six feet of solid
muscle with the heart of a born hero. It's that protective streak that
has him pursuing a promotion to Captain to pay for his mother's home
care. And it's why he intends to figure out why his sometime girlfriend
Cherie Harper runs hot as hellfire one minute and pushes him away the
next.
Cherie's got it bad. Vader sweeps her off her feet--literally--and their
chemistry is combustible. There's just the little problem of a nightmare
from her past she was desperate to escape. And then her sister Trixie
arrives, causing havoc for Cherie and the male population of San
Gabriel. Cherie doesn't want her past to complicate Vader's life or his
career. But there's nothing like a firefighter to break through all your
defenses, one smoldering kiss at a time . . .
