Firefighter Sabina Jones is trying to get through the Thanksgiving holiday as best she can given that she's estranged from her family. She tore out of San Gabriel in her El Camino and headed for Reno to blow off some steam. She anticipated some drinking and gambling but not almost hooking up with a talk, dark, and handsome stranger who turns out to be the station's new training officer. After years of protecting her professional reputation by keeping fellow firefighters strictly in the "friends" category, Sabina isn't sure what to do about the attraction that flares between them.

Battalion Chief Rick Roman, one of the toughest captains on the East Coast, has relocated to San Gabriel, CA to give his teenage son new opportunities. He's expected to restore the dignity of the fire station by putting an end to the media hype around the "Bachelor Firemen of San Diego." When everything that can go wrong does, he starts wondering if there might be something to the bachelor curse. It doesn't help that he works with a woman he lusts after who has a secret that would keep the tabloids, bloggers, and gossips busy for weeks.

SEX AND THE SINGLE FIREMAN is a fun, frothy, sexy read that will entertain fans of contemporary romance. You can't go wrong with sexy firemen but there is much more to the story than that. Sabina's personal history was an entertaining twist on the dysfunctional childhood though it still explained the emotional obstacles she faced in her developing relationship with Roman. Roman is a caring father but is also a widower still struggling with the loss of his wife and the newest member of a crew that isn't sure it likes his tough attitude. I was completely pulled in as Sabina and Roman sorted out their personal and professional relationship in the midst of plenty of family and fire station chaos.

SEX AND THE SINGLE FIREMAN is the third book in the Bachelor Fireman series.
