This series just keeps getting better!!!

Rosie treats her sister to a Galentine's spa day to celebrate her sister's promotion at work. The day is supposed be full of pampering and relaxing, but when the floatation pod that Rosie is "relaxing" in malfunctions and won't open, Rosie is anything but relaxed. As firefighters arrive to help get her out, one firefighter in particular works overtime using his charm and wit to help Rosie relax long enough for her to be rescued. 

I've only read one other Sally Thorne book, and I didn't love it, so I was skeptical about this one. I am so glad that I was proven wrong. This book made me laugh and made me feel quite a few emotions in just a short amount of pages. I'm thoroughly impressed with how much Thorne was able to do with only one setting as well. Rosie and her mystery firefighter had instant chemistry and I loved reading about them.
And, again, the audio was PERFECTION!

This one felt shorter than the first two, though I didn’t check the page count. Still a good, quick novella.
