There's No Place Like Home...
Grace Mulcahy thought she'd finally gotten Apple Grove, Ohio, out of her system. Then she's lured back for a family barbecue and spies a broad-shouldered hottie hanging out at the grill. He somehow seems utterly at east, whether flipping burgers or horsing around with her hellion nephews. Why didn't her brother-in-law tell her he had such gorgeous friends? Suddenly her mouth is watering for more than her best friend's famous pie.
Some fires aren't meant to be fought
When firefighter Pat Garahan sees Grace, it's like a five-alarm bell goes off and he's the one ablaze. She says she wants to leave Apple Grove, but he will do whatever it takes to keep her around. The life of a firefighter isn't an easy one though, and he'll have to prove their immediate spark can have a lasting chance at love..
HUBBY'S REVIEW:
This was a story about a girl who is the youngest of
three daughters and moves away from home because she is tired of living in a
small town in Ohio. She is still close enough to go home for it is about a 90
min drive. But she likes the museums, concerts, restaurants and other things
of a big town. Not everyone knowing everything that goes on in your life. She
still calls her best friend and her father. Her sisters talk as well. She
comes home for a weekend not knowing that her sisters are trying to fix her
up with one of the local firemen. He is fairly new to the town and comes from
New Jersey. Where his family is all fire fighters. He has only told a few of
the guys why he moved. When they meet there is an instant connection it just
takes them a while to work through that part. Then when her father asks her
if she could help out at the store she finds that it is a mess. She doesn’t
know who to tell her father that she wants to quit her job and move back home
to help him. When it comes up one day and they both agree. She still wants a
relationship with the firefighter but he is not opening up to her. When a big
fire breaks out and he gets hurt he still does not want to talk to her. It is
not until some of the guys come around and talk to him that have known her
and tell him she is a strong Irish girl who you need in your life to kick
your butt. They let her in and they leave. They talk and work it out. This
was a good book because a lot of it was more real, her talking to a doctor
about PTSD trying anything to find a way to get him to open up. Also the way
guys talk to one another not just guys but firefighters, law enforcement.
There is a certain speak and she got it. A good book and a good story.
