I fell for Hollis when I read the first book Finn, and I loved him just as much during this book 😍. Thankfully he won over fire daddy Ford, because his heart is just too big and beautiful to not have a love of his life 💜. 

Speaking of Ford, I LOVED him just as much, slightly stoic, but a big teddy bear under that grumpy exterior? Yes please and thank you 🔥. Fire daddy is exactly what he is for our guy Hollis, and the tension between the two is phenomenal! Hollis was definitely what the grumpy captain needed and when they finally come together... well it's a good thing he's a firefighter because sparks fly 😈💥. 

I adored everything about their dynamic and relationship! How it came together so peacefully and how they both wrangled each other in without even knowing they were falling 🥹. There's beauty in simplicity and I feel this book entails that so well. 

I truly cannot WAIT for Gentry's book, and Remis 😜 I've been anticipating it since we got to know both during the first book but this one enticed me soooo much more 😈. Plus what's not to love about cowboys falling in love? 🥵
