Samenvatting:

"I'll take them!"

That's what I tell the social worker when my pre-k student and his baby brother need an emergency foster placement. I'll do anything to keep the brothers from being split up. But my apartment's flooded and there's only one house I can take them to on such short notice . . . his.

Knox Daniels, my brother's best friend, offers his new place without hesitation. He's not moving back to our town until next month—that's when all our hotshot firefighters are returning for their only chance to rebuild our father's fallen, iconic crew.

It doesn't matter that I've been in love with Knox since we were kids. It can't matter that we pretend that prom night kiss never happened. It won't matter that my feelings for him could destroy his lifelong friendship with my brother and threaten the certification of their crew. Because I'll be out of his house long before he gets back.

Except Knox just walked in . . . a month early. He's gorgeous as always and I'm covered in baby puke. He takes one look at the boys and tells me we can make this work—we can temporarily fake a relationship to keep them from being separated by the system.

Suddenly, everything matters.

Contains mature themes.
