BLURB
What do you do when your cheating business partner/boyfriend (bad, bad idea) announces he’s selling your software company on Thursday to fund his new life with his other girlfriend?
You hurry back to stop him, of course. He’s not getting rich on my dime! Or that would be the plan, but I’m currently lost in the Klamath Mountains, access to my car cut off by a California wildfire, and there’s no way I make it back in time.
Desperate times call for desperate measures, so I come up with a backup plan: putting the six-plus feet of hot, sexy, mountain man who crash-lands at my feet to good use (no, no that).
Bane Wilson is a very cocky hotshot firefighter with a dirty attitude. He never shuts up and he always jumps in feet-first. We clash over life choices, the value of having a good plan, and who’s the boss of who, but it turns out we both sing loudly when no one’s listening, love junk food, and have really lousy exes.
We make a deal. He’ll be my guide down the trail, and I’ll be his chauffeur back to San Francisco. Traveling together disrupts all my carefully laid plans—and no matter how many times I tell myself I don’t even like this guy, the California wilderness isn’t the only thing on fire. Bane and I have serious chemistry. He’s not Mr. Forever. He’s just Mr. Fun. There’s no future for us and we’re supposed to part ways as soon as we reach San Francisco, exactly as I planned. We’ve both been scarred by our pasts and I don’t take chances. Turns out, I never should have let him into my car, let alone my life—or my heart.

MY REVIEW
When a gorgeous firefighter literally falls into her life and rescues her, a trip down the mountain and back to the city just might change Peony's life. But is Bane really the answer to everything? Or is he only a #boytoy as social media about him suggests?
Once Peony's delivered back to the city, she's hoping Bane will get into contact with her again. But as the days, weeks, months go by without a word or response to her texts, she realizes she's better off without him, without a man who will leave her behind as if she means nothing. But what Peony doesn't realize is that Bane has his own demons to fight, and that he needs to work them out if he wants a chance to be with her.
This is a sweet, really hot insta-love/lust story. I liked how Peony stood up for herself at the end, made Bane work his ass off to get a second chance. The only thing I didn't like was that they weren't a couple for long enough for my tastes. I wish this were more of a full length novel, so I could enjoy them being happy together.
