Burning up

Jennifer Blackwood

Unemployed schoolteacher Erin Jenkins is back in Portland, the town she hasn't called home for more than a decade. It's not the way she wants to spend her last days of summer, in between jobs and avoiding her mother's snooping by escaping to the ice cream aisle. But when the opportunity arises for her to accompany her brother's best friend to a wedding, summer gets a whole lot more interesting. Firefighter and single dad Jake Bennett has built a nice, safe wall around his heart. That doesn't mean he's ruling out a fling. Considering Erin's visit is temporary, they're the perfect fit for a scorching no-strings one night stand. Until the worst thing happens" Erin and Jake are feeling more.
