They call me a hero. Every day, I risk my life to save others and wouldn't trade it for anything else. Fighting fires is my passion and a job I love more than anything. There is no better feeling than the adrenaline that rushes through me when I step inside a burning building. The one thing I'm not is a hero in the eyes of the women I sleep with. I'm nothing more than a one-night stand and a confirmed bachelor who happily walks away the next morning. Even a hero can be a womanizer and a partier. Challenges are my specialty, and I thrive on them. My newest challenge is a beautiful and sexy doctor named Sara Davis. She's complicated, but so am I. I was willing to break my one-night stand rule for her until my past came back to haunt me, reminding me why I had become the man I am and why I chose never to find my happily ever after. I didn't trust men, and for good reason. I moved to New York City to be closer to my ailing mother and for my new job as an ER doctor. The last thing I expected was to meet and fall for a handsome firefighter named Mason Wolfe. He was a good man, and the demons he battled weren't too far from mine. We both held onto past issues that prevented us from moving on with our lives. We lived together as roommates, which blossomed into a friend-with-benefits relationship where we set rules. The problem started when I broke one of those rules, let my guard down, and fell in love with him. But the scars of his past ran too deep, and he went running for the hills, leaving my heart shattered into millions of tiny pieces. 18+
