The last time Daryl gave his heart away it was stomped on and destroyed. Can a younger sunshine cop inspire a grumpy fire marshal to risk all for love?

Romance is not on Daryl's list of things to do. As a matter of fact, the less people he's forced to deal with, the better. Social interaction is overrated anyway, right? Too bad he can't get the hot cop from his weekend softball league out of his dirty little fantasies.

Zach just sailed past thirty and is sick of meaningless hook-ups. But finding a decent guy he can click with seems impossible. When a friend suggests he give the surly fire marshal a try, Zach wonders if his buddy has been standing out in the Arizona sun for too long. No way is the ruggedly handsome, cranky Daryl potential relationship material.

Apparently, opposites really do attract, and after a bumpy start it seems as if the road to love is paved with sunshine and rainbows. Or is it?

A tragic fire, Daryl's emotional fortress and a whole lot of danger conspire to keep them apart, but Zach won't give up without a fight. But first, he has to survive the threat of death staring him down...
