Age gap romance has never been this scorching.
Get ready for the captain who's about to discover that sometimes the most beautiful masterpieces are created when you throw out the rulebook.
Gilbert Ross has spent years putting everyone else first -- his daughter, his crew, his duty. But when a free-spirited artist with wild curls and an even wilder imagination walks into his firehouse, everything changes.

Harper's here to paint a mural, not fall for the grumpy fire captain who thinks her artistic vision is "unnecessary." But there's something about the way Gilbert commands a room that has her heart pounding.

He's all discipline and duty. She's all passion and paint-stained fingers.

He thinks she's too young, too free, too much of everything he can't have.

She thinks he's uptight, stubborn, and absolutely irresistible.

When disaster strikes Station 9 and Gilbert's carefully controlled world starts crumbling, Harper becomes his anchor. But can a man who's spent his life following rules learn to love a woman who breaks every single one of them?

Perfect for readers who love:

• Age gap romance with emotional depth

• Grumpy/sunshine dynamics

• Single dad heroes ready for love

• Small town firefighter steam

• Artist heroines with big hearts

• Found family feels

• Station 9 brotherhood and banter

Warning: Contains one grumpy fire captain, a free-spirited artist who sees beauty in everything, and enough steam to set off the smoke alarms. Side effects may include: sudden appreciation for men in uniform, urge to take up painting, and the overwhelming need to visit your local fire station.

Read with One-Click Now to feel the heat!

Can be read as a standalone, but why stop at one Station Nine hero when they're all so freakin' hot?
