Synopsis (Goodreads):
If you can’t stand the heat, don’t fall for a firefighter…Thoughts on Protecting What's Mine: Okay. I liked these two. They pushed and pulled against each other in the best way and...I just liked them.
Fire Chief Lincoln Reed is known for his heroics in the fire department and in the bedroom. Life is a never-ending good time. Until she lands in the middle of the accident scene he’s working…and then his backyard. Too bad she’s immune to flirty first responders.
Flight trauma surgeon Mackenzie O’Neil is on a crash course with burnout. She’s got a scar on her face and a shake in her hands. A temporary job as a small-town family physician is just the prescription. She’ll learn to meditate. Sleep more. Take up gardening.
She definitely won’t take her shirtless, firefighting neighbor’s hot body for a test drive.
But Linc and his tattoos are very persuasive. What’s a harmless little adrenaline-fueled fling between neighbors? It’s all naked fun and games until the shadows from Mack’s past find their way into her present. Can Linc be her hero when she needs him the most or will their scars ruin everything?
One thing is certain: Someone is going to get burned.
Author’s Warning: This small-town happily ever after is smokin’ hot, sweetly hilarious, deliciously suspenseful, and a one-two punch to the feels. One-click for a disaster dog, precocious kids, a good ol’ fistfight, nosy neighbors, high-adrenaline first responder heroics, firefighter bromance, and kitchen sexytimes.
Linc likes the ladies and he's not ashamed of it. He's also someone who's genuinely nice and who remains friends with his hookups after they unhook. Which was kind of hilarious when said former hookups were working on helping him and Mack get together. He's also pretty beloved in town seeing as he's an actual firefighting hero and all that.
As for Mack, she's skating on the edge of burnout and trying to find a happy medium between who she was and who she needs to be. Which means she's sort of sworn off men and hookups of her own. As you can imagine, Linc tempts her all too much in that regard. He's never pushy about it either. More flirty and fun and irresistible than anything.
Basically, he drives Mack crazy in the best way.
Romance in a small town, people who make big mistakes and have to figure out how to untangle their mess if they want a chance at happiness, and danger of both the professional and personal capacity. What can I say except I liked it all. Friends, family, and open heart surgery on the side of the road. Good stuff!
