I’m living with my one-night stand
who doesn’t know he’s a father.
Six years ago, I had the ride of my life with a hotshot firefighter passing through town.

And the man I never forgot is living in my house.
He''s gruff. Relentless. And lives life on the edge.
I’m an ER doctor. A single mom. I know exactly how dangerous his job is. And why I should keep my distance.
But soon late nights, lingering looks, and watching him peel off his gearpretending I don’t feel it everywhereblur all the lines.
I tell myself this is temporary. That loving a firefighter means learning how to lose.
But watching him protect, stay, and bond with my son makes me forget why I stopped believing in love.
Until his job sends him running straight into danger again. And if he can’t stop the wildfire racing toward town,
I might not get the chance to tell him
Why my son has his eyes.
