Rachelle did another amazing job writing this book. I always fall in love with her books because they are so well written and so descriptive that I feel like I'm on the book and can see everything. So I loved this book just as much as her other books.
Who doesn't love a hero firefighter especially one with such a huge heart and loves animals? I mean Larry is a perfect package even with his scars which only add to his beauty and sexiness. The only part I wanted to jump into the book and slap and kiss Larry was his self pity and his low self esteem because we all knew how sexy he is to us girls yet he doubted everything. So glad he finally accepted his scars as honor badges and loved himself again.
Jenna is this feisty designer who is used to being fawned over and center of all the attention and drama. She was beautiful and I hated she starved herself to fit into her world but that is reality in that area of the field. I loved she was able to show Larry how beautiful and important he was. Together they were a power couple. Jenna and Larry are the cutest unmatched couple ever then add in the cute little matchmaking hound dog Harley and you got one amazing family.
Such an amazing book! I definitely recommend it and all of Rachelle's books. So pick it up today you won't be sorry!
