Too Hot to Handle (Hope Falls: Station 8 Book 2) by Melanie Shawn
One look...
That was all it took for Gabe Maguire to realize something was missing in his life. After beating cancer and returning to the cage to claim victory in the octagon, Gabe was ready to settle into his life in Hope Falls as a firefighter. The sexy MMA champion was grateful to be alive but still felt like he was just going through the motions until he laid eyes on her.
One promise...
That was what Adriana Hale was determined to keep. As a young, single mother raising her twin girls and her late cousin's son, Adriana was willing to sacrifice anything for her kids, including her heart.
One night...
That was what brought them together, but could it also be what would tear them apart. After realizing a connection that will change everything, will Adriana and Gabe find the happiness and love they both deserve or will fate have other plans for them?
Author's Note: Too Hot To Handle is a love-at-first-sight, small-town, single mom, mistaken identity, firefighter, stand-alone Hope Falls romance. It features a cancer-surviving hero and a tragic loss-surviving heroine who find comfort, hope, and...more (cough*sexy-time*cough) in the most unexpected place. Rounding out the cast is fun-loving family and friends who, while well-meaning, might be a tad on the meddling side. This tale of true love is brought to you by the letter H for heat, heart, humor, and, of course, happily ever after.
*Too Hot to Handle was previously published as Fire and Foreplay*
