Colorado Fireman (Creature Comforts, 4)

Colorado firefighter Adam O'Malley risks his own life to rescue Carly Spencer's young son and a dog named Molly from a burning building…and assumes that's the last he'll see of them. But Spruce Lake is a small place, and Carly and her four children are new to town. Before he knows it, Adam's mother has invited Carly, her children and the dog to stay at the O'Malley ranch!

As the widow of a firefighter, making a good life for her kids is Carly's number one priority. Meeting—and falling for—another firefighter is not. Adam, meanwhile, has been avoiding relationships because of a painful secret he's kept from everyone, including his brothers. But the more time he spends with Carly, the more he wants to move past it.

C.C. Coburn married the first man who asked her and hasn't regretted a day since--well, not many of them. She grew up in Australia's Outback, moved to its sun-drenched Pacific coast, then traveled the world.  A keen skier, she discovered Colorado's Rocky Mountains and now spends part of the year in that state. Currently she's living in England with her husband, as well as a Labrador retriever and three cats. She loves hearing from readers: visit her at cccoburn.com.
