An ARC was provided to me in exchange for an honest review.
A really great start to a new series. Liam Knight is a firefighter that is having some issues and it shows in his work. When he misses work, the fire chief pulls him aside and suggests he seek professional help.
Dylan is part-time student, part time art therapy and part-time receptionist. He meets Liam in the craft store he works at, where Liam is a tenant of. The two feel an instant attraction for each other. Both parties have been hurt before and aren't quite ready to start anything. Even if they are they might not survive their issues.
I liked that there was room for growth for both MCs. The story was character driven and I liked the buildup of their relationship and that it was well paced. The focus on psychological problems and dealing with them was nice to see. It's not something you get to see a lot of in fiction and could have been easily brushed over.
