Description

A fire department lieutenant falls for a Hollywood movie star who’s filming on-location. Their lives are incompatible and he’s lying to her big-time. Still…

Widowed Noah Keaton, one of the good guys, sends his four kids to vacation in California with his sisters twice a year. He’s more than glad for the break. He needs a breather in his personal life. His career as a firefighter lieutenant is going great but it’s the responsibility of his family that sometimes overwhelms him.

Chloe Logan is a famous movie star. She loves her job and her life in Hollywood. She knows something is missing, a good relationship with a man, but her job takes precedence. Then she meets Noah Keaton on a fire call to the set. Their attraction is immediate.

They both know their relationship is temporary because she’ll be leaving at the end of the summer. And Noah goes after his second chance at romance even though he’s keeping something from her: the fact that he’s the single dad of four little boys. But they can’t control their feelings.

Will Chloe forgive his deception--and accept a life with four active children—or will she give up her soulmate and send them both back to their lonely existence?

    I received a complimentary copy of this book and I am voluntarily reviewing it. While this is a part of a series and the Brothers of Fire appear in all of the books, you don't have to read the prior one to fully understand and enjoy this book. I would highly recommend it though as it follows the first book and brings more understanding of the dynamic relationship of the men who serve as firefighters. I adore how Ms. Shay writes in a multiple POV format. It just helps to weave the story together more cohesively. Can a widower with 4 young children who fights fires for a living connect a beautiful Hollywood actress? Chloe is only in town for the summer to film her latest project. Noah is enjoying a rare time when his children visit his sisters in California. Chloe is attracted to the handsome firefighter. Noah is keeping a secret from Chloe. Can they overcome the logistics of her living on the opposite side of the country? How will she react when it is revealed that Noah is part of a package deal? This story will just draw you in! It is hard to put down. It flows so well that before I knew it, it was over!!!! NO!!!! I really need to slow down when I read. I become so invested in the story that the pages just fly by and then when it is over, I'm depressed! It's like saying good-bye to some really great friends. This is a sexy read but not overtly graphic in detail.

    This book brings back characters Noah and Chloe that we briefly met in Book 1 of this series. Chloe is an actress filming in Crystal City. An accidental fire during filming causes sparks to fly between Noah and Chloe. Since Noah’s four young sons are out of state visiting relatives, he is free to pursue a relationship with Chloe. Things are great until she finds out he didn’t tell her he has children. Of course, since this is a romance, they work things out in the end. This is a great story

    The Rescue is the second installment of the Brothers of Fire. Noah seems to have a challenging life being a firefighter and a single father to four young boys. He meets Chloe Logan a few weeks before being called to a fire at her work location. From that chance meeting the journey begins. Life is full of complications for both of them. Can they navigate through? Kathryn Shay provides a short and sweet story with a beautiful ending. It certainly left me wanting more of these characters. Highly recommend The Rescue.
