He’s has sworn to never live with another woman after raising his four younger sisters. He’s retiring—from worrying, fixing problems, and cleaning up messes. Yet when a fellow paramedic’s apartment burns down and she needs a place to stay, he can’t say no. Her penchant for poker and her ability to overhaul a transmission definitely make her different from his usual women—not to mention a total lack of interest in getting involved with him. With her sights set on medical school, his crazy mix of family and friends is the last thing she needs right now. But within forty-eight hours of moving in, she’s up to her eyeballs in a family crisis and he’s in uncharted territory with a girl he wants to rescue…who doesn’t need him at all. *This title was previously published as Up By Five, Counting on Love book five*.
