Overview: Fire Chief Hank Reed:
I’ve spent most of my life alone in Wildwood since my wife died just a year after my daughter was born. Guilt’s plagued me since then, knowing that my heart had never been hers, that I could have been a better husband. Should have been a better man. Instead, it’s always belonged to my first love, Katrina.
High School and then college sweethearts, I always expected that when she graduated three years after me, we’d finally be together after years of constantly being pulled apart by school and distance.
Only she didn’t come home to me. Instead, she sent me a letter and left to train with a world-famous pastry chef.
Heartbroken, I finally gave up on us and moved on…only to lose my wife.
When Katrina comes home to start a business and help her ailing father, I refuse to be tempted. I don’t care how many embers there are, I can’t risk the fire that burned me the first time.
Katrina Barker:
I made a huge mistake and it cost me the only man I ever loved. My mom told me to follow my dreams. She made me promise before she passed away my senior year in college. She always regretted that she settled. She said she loved me but sometimes I wondered.
Immature and sure I was doing the right thing, I didn’t even go home. Just sent a letter and ran. It was cowardly and unfair but it felt like the only way I could leave Hank. After six months, I came home for Christmas to find him engaged to another woman and I knew that we were through.
Now, my father’s sick and I have to come back to keep an eye on him. His memory is sleeping and after he wanders off and ends up in another town days later, confused and dehydrated, I know I’m out of time.
The first person I run into is Hank and he’s just as gorgeous as I remember. But he’s so angry. I still have feelings for him even after all this time. Has too much time and anger really destroyed all our feelings or is that tiny ember I feel whenever I’m around him enough of a spark to fuel the passions still hidden under mixed emotions and years of guilt?
