My landlord is a grump and good-looking to boot. I want to get along but I should never have become this firefighter's roommate.
My online jewelry sells like crazy but Maria wants us to open a shop in Lantana. So I rent a room in a nice house. But my landlord doesn't seem so nice. He's grumpy and has no time for my curious questions.
He's rarely around. Gone for two or three days at a time when not fighting fires.
With his good looks, short dark hair, and fit body, he probably has a girlfriend. But he throttles my efforts to find out.
And getting involved in the fire department's fundraiser doesn't help. He thinks my jewelry is gaudy. Why should I care what he thinks?
During a storm, we get stuck together and I think I'm finally cracking his crabby shell. But no such luck. He disappears. This man is not only grumpy but mysterious. And I'm being drawn closer to him.
Alone in my shop one day, I hear a noise and then smell smoke ...
