Falling for Him

Summary

USA Today and Wall Street Journal bestselling author Natasha Madison turns up the heat in this sizzling small-town, second-chance romance.

Twelve years ago, McKenna Lambert broke Hudson Tate’s heart when she left Montgavin in pursuit of dreams that were too big for their cozy hometown. He has always been content living there, working as a firefighter, and with his boss announcing his retirement, Hudson is about to realize his own dream of becoming fire chief. The only problem is the town committee is looking for someone socially stable, someone settled. And Hudson has a reputation.

McKenna is back in Montgavin to help her mom go through chemotherapy but has no plans on staying. She now has a successful career she worked hard for that allows her to travel the world, and a couple of big secrets she’s determined to keep in order to protect the people she loves—including the reason she broke off her recent engagement.

However, rather than focus on getting well, her mom frets that McKenna’s broken engagement has left her with no one to take care of her if the worst should happen. So, Hudson comes up with the perfect plan to solve both their problems. They’ll pretend to date, just until McKenna’s mom is well, and he secures his dream job. McKenna is clear that she’s not staying, their lives are on different tracks, and they’re in agreement. Because she is absolutely not falling for him again ... right?
