BLURB.

Anika Jones has her future carefully plotted out and is checking the boxes, one by one, despite the bumps thrown in her path. This last one is a challenge, but she manages to stay on track; her salon is thriving, and she just bought a house. Unfortunately, when one of her employees runs into trouble, she inevitably gets sucked in, throwing her carefully paced life off-balance. It doesn’t help a friend, who’s been ghosting her for a year, suddenly makes an appearance.

He was born to pig farming, but for Noah (Hog) Hodgekins fighting fires is his calling. He wasted too many years honoring a legacy he wants no part of. But now that he’s finally free from family obligations, there’s nothing holding him back from pursuing the life he’s been dreaming of. The first step is mending bridges with the one person who is central to that future, but she comes with her own challenges, family and otherwise.

Instead of treading carefully to gain her heart, he ends up throwing caution to the wind when her recent string of bad luck lands the FBI on her doorstep.

MY REVIEW.

4.5 Stars from Renee!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I was pulled right into this story. The story has laughs, suspense, twists & turns, secrets, pain, and heartbreak.

If you have not read the below I would recommend reading those books(s) first.

Burning for Autumn (On Call #1)
Covering Ollie (On Call #2)
Tracking Tahlula (Police and Fire: Operation Alpha)

This is Anika and Noah (Hog)’s story. Hog has been drawn to Anika for a while and finally decided to take a chance on forming more than a friendship. She has a lot going on and has a life plan. But when someone from her work is hurt she steps up. But now the danger is after her. Can they figure out where the danger is coming from before she really gets hurt. Seems like it is coming for all angles. Is she ever safe? The more time they spend together the closer they become but are they building a forever or is he just protecting her? When the danger gets too close will they end up losing everything?

I highly recommend this book.
