Abby Williams lost her husbandβand the future she envisionedβto a roadside bomb in a foreign land, so a kitchen fire is no big deal. When the local firemen show up to put out the blaze, the army widow finds herself attracted to one hot volunteer firefighterβ¦until she realizes itβs Justin Donovan, a man five years her junior.
Justin has long carried a torch for Abby. But after she got married ten years ago, he put her out of his mind, left Ardent Springs for Chicago, and got a job as a real estate developer. Now heβs backβfor reasons heβd rather not shareβand he wants to prove to Abby that age is nothing but a number. Will Abbyβs reluctance and Justinβs secrets extinguish any attempts at romance? Or will the sparks between them ignite a second chance at love?
