love this author!
Kathryn Shay knows her subject. I loved all of her novels about firefighters and policemen. This was a particularly inspirational read. Wonderful characters and lots of actions.
I enjoyed it very much, learned much about the firemen and women, and how they handle very tough situations. A very good read.
I have enjoyed reading several books by this author.
Awesome book. Awesome writer
Have enjoyed several from this series.
You can’t help but love these firefighters!
I really like this author. I even go out of my genre to read her books. This is a great story with believable characters with real problems. Sexy firefighters don’t hurt either. I love a story with brothers and this doesn’t disappoint. Lots of action and it really showcases the life of firefighters. Definitely worth a read.
Love the family series. The characters are strong, yet sensitive. Ms. Shay does it again!
Great story of a fire-fighting family and the challenges they face in finding (and maintaining) love in the face of their jobs. Shay’s research really shines through in this story. Warning for strong (but realistic) language.
Love all of her books
Loved the characters and how the story wove around the family
Wasn’t easy to pick out who the ‘bad guy’ was.
Loved all the intertwined stories and the attitude about infidelity. Great characters. Want to read another one!
I will always pick up a Kathryn Shay book with her wonderful fire fighter stories. This one, too, did not disappoint! This book is a best friend who becomes more type of book, and is done with respect to the parties involved. Of course, there are fires and there is romance among the characters, but it is handled respectfully and does not …
Love her books!
There was a story line for 3 different family members and you felt you knew them.
I love the fact that two best friends since they were 5 years old finally get together romantically. I also, love the main characters getting together in the end and the twist of the lawyer brother having an affair with the main characters wife
Good story and so detailed.
Wonderful story of what fire fighters go through in everyday life..really enjoyed this book.
