From The Wild Rose Press...

Firefighter Patrick Barre is determined to hide away in the woods
of Vermont. He's content to do his job, remodel his house, and enjoy the company
of his arson-detection dog, Midas. Scars from the fire that destroyed his family
keep him from letting anyone into his life. 

Gini Claremont uses her camera to celebrate the beauty of life.
Nature soothes her, while anger is dangerous for Gini--and anyone near her. If
she doesn't guard her emotions, her surroundings could go up in flames. Living
alone, keeping busy, and letting her family keep watch on her is best for
everyone. 

When an arsonist declares war on their town, Patrick and Gini
reluctantly band together to sift through the ashes, each holding a secret close
to the heart. As the arson escalates, so does their mutual attraction. Will
teaming up put out the fires, or start a whole new one?

"
This story takes you on a interesting journey....the reader goes through each emotion; sadness, loss, love and happily ever after. The cast of characters in this story just makes it that much better...love Midas he's my favorite."

"A good book, in my opinion, will always make you feel an abundance of emotions and Firefly Mountain was no exception to that idea."

Excerpt:
One nail. Two. Three. Bam. Bam. Bam.

Patrick wielded that nail gun as if it were part of his hand. The compressor roared to life, and Gini jumped.
Patrick laughed as he nudged Gini aside so he could drive some nails into her end of the wall. She leaned against the closet he’d framed and wondered if he had a smooth or hairy chest. She had a feeling she’d like either on him. She also had a feeling she wouldn’t ever know which was hiding under that T-shirt.

She needed to go. Now. Right away.

“All set?” she asked when Patrick stopped nailing. Gini set the safety glasses and earplugs on a sawhorse and edged toward her purse on the floor.

“She’s not going anywhere.” He blew on the tip of the nail gun as if blowing smoke from a pistol. That one movement of his lips was enough to set off a chain of images in Gini’s brain. Images of their bodies entangled, hands sliding along smooth flesh, mouths exploring curves and angles. She blinked several times, but the images remained.

“Think it’s time for a muffin break,” Patrick said. “C’mon.” He walked past her into the kitchen.

Gini looked to the front door and back to the door Patrick had gone through. Her head swayed from one to the other as if she were watching a tennis match. Beyond one door was her quiet farmhouse where only Saber, Nyx, and Moon waited for her return.

Beyond another was a man who built things with his capable hands, who was at this moment, fueling his libido with blueberry muffins.
