There was only a foot between us. He casually brushed the hair away from my face, then fingered some of the strands. I took a step back. My hair weaved through his fingers.
"I figured it would be as silky as it looked, and I was right. You're a beautiful woman Fiera Murphy. It's going to be damned hard to keep my distance, no matter what your rules are. We just might have to make an exception."
And then he was gone, closing the door behind him.
For a moment, I couldn't move. My cheek still tingled where his fingertips had brushed across it. Had he felt the electricity that arced between us?
Fiera:
I came to Texas for one reason - closure. But I don't know if I have the courage to face my past, to finally say good bye when my heart feels as if it's splintering into thousands of tiny pieces.
New town. New job.
I'm a damned good paramedic. I don't want to be your friend. I don't do close relationships. I just want to do my job. But dammit, Layne is breaking past all my carefully erected barriers. How many times can I be hurt without it destroying me? He makes me feel things I don't want to feel. He makes me feel alive.
Layne:
Just because I'm a paramedic doesn't mean I have to fix everyone, but when Fiera hires on, I can tell she's broken, even though she hides behind a tough exterior. I certainly don't want to get involved in anything long-term. I should stay away. Keep my distance.
Yeah sure, like that's going to happen when she's pushing all the right buttons. She's sexy and she's beautiful... and she needs help. I have a feeling I won't be her knight in shining armor, though.
But as Fiera begins to unravel her past, she uncovers secrets and betrayals. Will she be able to face the lies that surround her?
At times intense, but with moments that will make you laugh out loud, and others that tug at your heartstrings. Rescue Me can be a standalone book in the Hayes brothers series, #4, but it's still better when you read them in order.
#1 Dangling ... Participle?
#2 Take A Hike!
#3 Nailed It!
#4 Rescue Me
Genre: Romantic Suspense
