Here Comes the Smoke Again

I don't do small.I do heavy lifting, rescue carries, and ducking through doorframes.At six-foot-six, I've spent my whole life trying to take up less space.I'm too big, too strong, and too intimidating for women who'd rather not risk it.So when my crew books a spa appointment for me because they think I deserve a little pampering, I almost don't go.Then I meet Gwen Hartley—the sexy nail tech with calm blue eyes and the softest touch I've ever felt.She doesn't flinch when she sees me or my rough hands. And when she kneels to work on my embarrassingly big feet she makes me feel like my size isn't something to apologize for. I start to believe that maybe the thing I've hated most about myself is exactly what she wants. But when the world reminds me of how we look together, every old wound reopens. I do what I've always done…pull away to protect her from the beast everyone else sees.I'm a firefighter.I run into danger because I'm built for it.Now she's showing me that I'm not dangerous, I'm lovable.Here Comes the Smoke Again is a short, steamy, instalove romance featuring a blushing gentle giant firefighter, a quietly confident nail tech, size-difference sweetness with serious heat, and a soft HEA.
