Editorial Review:
A love that has smoldered for years ignites when two women and one little boy come together in the aftermath of tragedy. An early morning hotel fire turns out to be anything but routine, and firefighter Reid Webb's best friend and partner, Jimmy Grant, dies. Guilt-ridden and grieving, Reid feels responsible for her partner's young son, Chase. She would do anything for him, even if that means spending far too much time in the company of the woman she's harbored feelings for since high school. Isabel Grant doesn't know anything about raising children. But when she returns to her hometown to assume custody of her orphaned nephew, she gets a crash course. Isabel's struggle to keep her footing in the midst of chaos is further complicated by her growing attraction to Reid, a woman whom Isabel blames for her brother's death.

Rating:  - Well Developed
This was the third of Dutton's books I've read and this one is very well written. The characters are complete, the story has just the right amount of angst, heartbreak, and romance. There was very little insecurity between the love interests, which is a nice departure from what you usually get in this genre. It was nice to see two people in a difficult situation facing it like adults and exploring their feelings. This one is really worth a read.
Rating: - A good solid book
Reid Webb and Jimmy Grant had been friends since they were children. Where you saw one, you saw the other. It was only natural that they would decide together to become firefighters and that they would end up in the same station. They depended on each other for everything and their families formed one extended family. When Jimmy's wife died in an accident, Reid and her mother stepped in to help raise Jimmy's young son, Chase. What they didn't count on was Jimmy dying in a fire under circumstances ... Read More

Reid has made the mistake of falling in love with her best friend's sister, Isabel, who is straight. When Reid's best friend dies while putting out a fire, Isabel is left to raise her nephew, Chase. Moving back to her home town is easier than Isabel thought, and since Reid is her next-door neighbor, she offers to help with Chase. The two women grapple with their feelings of atraction, guilt, regret and loss and eventually establish a relationship that grows into love.
Rating: - Dutton Delivers Again
It's really nice to see a new voice in this community deliver not only on her first novel, but on her second novel as well. I could easily become an avid fan of Erin Dutton if she continues to deliver this level of quality writing.

Rating: - Totally enjoyable and fast paced with good character development
This was a nice change of pace romance to read. I especially liked the diversity of characters. Having one be a firefighter was out of the ordinary and I enjoyed that aspect very much. The story flowed for me and I devoured the book in two days while on vacation. The resolution was delightful and I thought it was great that the novel had a host of interesting characters.
I am looking forward to reading the author's other novels -
