July Dupree and Dean ‘PD’ Hargrove fell head over heels in love. When PD comes home to tell July the good news about joining the SWAT team as a tactical medic, everything changes.
July can’t fathom why PD would want to be a cop in this day and age. Wasn’t it enough that he already had a dangerous job with the fire department? Now he has to add another, even more dangerous, job to the equation? With so many cruel people in the world who make a sport out of hurting cops just because of the badge they wear, she has to make him understand. But when he refuses to listen to her reasoning, she feels she has no other choice but to issue an ultimatum: her or the SWAT team.
Dean doesn’t like ultimatums. He’s furious with July for putting him in the awful position of having to choose between a dream and her.
July never believes for a second that he’d choose the SWAT team over her, but she is wrong.
A year later, they’re both still in love with each other, but neither one is willing to budge regardless of their feelings.
July’s feelings for Dean haven’t changed, in fact her love for him has only grown. But seeing him living his life seemingly unaffected by the loss of what they had breaks her heart over and over each time she sees him.
Dean has a good poker face, though. He’s just going through the motions of his life until finally, the smoldering embers of his feelings erupt into a full-on blaze of emotion, burning through everything but his love for July. When the smoke clears, Dean wants to know if they can reignite the fire of their love or is he destined to live his life in a constant state of controlled burn?

5 out of 5 stars

Aaahhhhhhhhhhh!!!! Ms Vale does it to me every time. Every. Single. Time!!! July and Dean are the best couple of hers I’ve read to date!!!

This story sucked me in from the the very first page and I hated everything in my life that kept me from reading and seeing how it all turned out.

July & Dean seem to have their happy in their 6 months together, and then a friend of his shows her true colors and forces July & Dean apart. Their time apart is hell for both of them, but when they reconnect, it’s like nothing ever separated them.

I loved watching Dean try to hate her and try to keep his distance. Even when I was reading from July’s POV I could see Dean’s desire for her. This story just really had my heart...and the drama (like she has in every story) nearly shredded me. Not just for these two, but for her brother, Wolf, as well.

I love Ms Vale’s writing style and the way her characters are all interconnected, but yet each book is a standalone. I can’t wait to read more from her!
