Fireproof

The newest barista at the Busy Bean is about to steam the place up . . . Former Marine Mason Rye can make a cappuccino with military precision, but he finds it much harder to serve up a smile. It's not that he doesn't like people. But he knows from experience that once you let someone in, it hurts like hell when you lose them. And Mason's lost too many people already. So it's pretty damn inconvenient when his old Marine buddy shows up on Mason's goat farm with his younger sister in tow. Heather's work in Washington D.C. has turned dangerous, and she needs a safe place out of town. Mason doesn't need a new roommate, especially not a pretty, single one who insists on rearranging his spice rack and giving his chickens cute names. Although there's no denying the haunted look in her blue eyes. Every time her fear shows its face, he wants to reach for her. The problem is that she wants him, too. And when Mason breaks all his rules, they practically burn down his bed together. But her life is in D.C. And the threat against her is over. Unfortunately, neither of their hearts is fireproof . . . Contains mature themes.
