Jerrica was dying. She had found the bottom of the proverbial barrel and was now on death’s door because of her naivete. Never in a million years did she dream her ex-husband would blackmail her, nor did she expect the threat to come over some risqué sushi. She needed help and never expected the answer to all of her problems to come rushing in the door, like some charging hero… and her, the damsel in distress. Oh, she was in distress all right – mental and intestinal. Alec Winston had seen no one so miserable in his entire life. Called in for a kitchen fire, the ridiculous place had been closed twice in the last year for violations, and the woman before him looked like she was yet another victim at that moment. Her bloodless features were pinched, and she looked ready to cry, and the moment the other man grabbed her aggressively? He saw red – and it had nothing to do with the flames coming from the employee bathroom. Why did the cheesy pickup line ‘t he fire is in your eyes ’ suddenly come to mind when Jerrica met Alec’s gaze – and why was she falling for him? *** Step into the world of Disaster City Search and Rescue, where officers, firefighters, military, and medics, train and work alongside each other with the dogs they love, to do the most dangerous job of all—help lost and injured victims find their way home.
