The Malone Brothers

He can do all kinds of dirty things to her… That’s the first thought in songwriter Dylan McCoy’s head when she sees firefighter Grady Malone. Her second? A rebound has never looked so good. But she’s been burned by a number of people lately. A famous ex-boyfriend she still has to work with. A binding contract. A demanding agent. She needs a break from them all. A place to go to nurse her wounds. When she finds herself in the small town of Sunnyville, she refuses to let her new firefighter roommate burn her too. Unless…. it’s with their sizzling chemistry.

I never thought I’d see Grayson Malone again. Then again, it seems life happens when you least expect it. It’s a long story, but I messed up at work. Big time. To earn back my boss’s trust, I over-promised and now hope I can deliver. The promise? That I can save our fledgling magazine by holding a Hot Dad contest. Silly but viable. And if my plan is successful, I’ll have a shot at my dream job. The only catch? Dealing with Grayson again. How was I supposed to know he would be Hot Dad Number 10?

“I hate you. I never want to see you again.” It’s been twenty years since I said those words. Since Grant Malone’s smile fell hearing them seconds before I walked out of our third-grade classroom thinking I’d never see him again. He’s not the reason I moved back to Sunnyville—at least that’s what I tell myself. I thought time had healed all wounds. I was wrong. Nothing could have prepared me for how I’d feel when I finally saw him again. The little boy I once knew is now a grown man. A grown man who hits all my buttons—sexy, funny, attractive, and kind.
