Synopsis:
He’s infuriating…

Dempsey Jones has been a nuisance my entire life, the straight-laced Boy Scout grown up to be a firefighter, of all things. He was the one helping kittens out of trees and old ladies cross the road while I was lighting cherry bombs with my best friend in abandoned buildings, and now that we’re all grown up—even if my Dad doesn’t agree—he’s still just as annoying.

She’s impossible…


Taite Ridley has been a constant my whole life, the curly haired mischievous daughter of the police chief, charming and devious and alluring. She was wild in ways I never dared to be and too big for our little town. But she’s here, a small town cop, and I can’t avoid her, even if I wanted to.


And I don’t want to.


It’s like mixing fire and gasoline and when these two collide, someone is gonna get burned…


      


*Excerpt*
Im fine,I call, waving, wincing when the move tugs at the gouges the demon kitten left behind.
Dempseys lips twitch and I glare at him.
Does the Chief know?I ask.
He inclines his head and says, Its protocol to inform the department if theres an officer down.
I curse and huff, Im going to shoot Miguel with his own service weapon.
Dempsey lifts an eyebrow.
Fine, you win,I sigh, Check me out. Might as well get it over with. The Chief will make me when he gets here anyway.
Im a little surprised he isnt already here, except I know he was checking out a call about vandalism over at the River Bridge. It means Daddys only twenty minutes away, or less by now. Im pretty sure Dempsey will be done with me by the time he gets here and Ill look less like a drowned rat in the light of his flashing blues.
God willing, anyway.
Dempsey follows me up the three steps and into Mrs. Rudolphs den. Its cozy, floral, and hot enough that Im absurdly grateful for the lack of coat.
Would you like some coffee?she asks, directing the question firmly at Dempsey. I want to bitchIm the one wet and bleedingbut I know better. I snarl under my breath and Dempsey wisely chooses to shake his head.
If you could just point me to your bathroom?he says, the usual charming inflection in his tone that grates against my skin.
And because shes a traitor, Mrs Rudolph smiles, this girlish thing that looks weird on a face thats pushing eighty, and points him down the hall toward a fucking pink bathroom. I had to rescue her damn cockatoo from that monstrosity when I was a rookie, and Ive never gotten over the hideousness.
Miguel says I have issues. I maintain that they are well earned.
Coffee sounds fantastic,I say, digging my heels in.
Dempseys hand clamps down on my arm and he hauls me along behind him like Im some kind of errant child. Im a cop. Being manhandled like this is not a good look for me. It makes me want to hiss and scratch at him until he lets me go.
It makes a completely differentidioticside of me want to purr and arch under his touch.
He pushes me against the pink counter until I take the not so subtle hint and hoist myself up.
You gonna be good or a pain in the ass about this?he asks, opening up his first aid kit.
I flash him a cheeky smirk. You wouldnt know what to do with me if I wasnt a pain in the ass,I answer as he snaps on a pair of rubber gloves.
