About this ebook

A sizzling new romance about a firefighter who reunites with an old flame and tries to rekindle the passion they once felt.
 
When firefighter Kal Donovan transfers to the Tactical Rescue Team, he's determined to succeed by giving work one hundred percent of his attention. This proves more difficult at his ten-year high school reunion when he runs into Hannah Clark, his first love. She's still the smart, funny, beautiful girl he loved in high school, but everything has changed. She's divorced, has a son, and has zero interest in exploring an old romance.
 
Hannah has moved back home after a disastrous end to a marriage that never should have been. Now her only focus is getting her hair salon up and running, and making sure her son is happy. She doesn't have time for love—especially not with Kal. She intends to look forward, not backward, and Kal is most definitely part of her past.
 
However as Hannah and Kal start spending time together, Hannah realizes that what she's feeling for him isn't nostalgia, but red-hot attraction. Kal's intent on showing her what it's like to be cared for, romanced, and consumed with passion—and Hannah loves it. But she wonders if she has the courage to risk her heart again, even as Kal vows not to lose her a second time.

Ratings and reviews

Kal Donovan and Hannah Clark were high school sweethearts, since they were fourteen years old, but he broke up with her before he left for college. He stupidly thought that you didn't find your soulmate when you were that young and she needed to live life a little first. Thinking he could get her back later, Kal's surprised when he finds out she is with someone else and ends up marrying him. Flash forward ten years.....their high school reunion. It seems Hannah is back living in town after her divorce with her seven year old son, Oliver. Kal and Hannah spend time together at the reunion and it's like the past ten years hadn't happened. Hannah is hesitant because of just coming off of her divorce, but Kal is persistent. Of course the more time these two spend together the more they realize that old feelings are still there. When Kal decides to take things to the next level, Hannah freaks. It will take some soul searching for Hannah to realize that what she really wants is her happy ending with Kal. She gets her perfect happy ending.
