She battled every fire she ever faced.

He’s risking everything for the chance to belong.

Veteran and therapist Natalie Atkinson watched her Army career explode in her face. All she ever wanted was to help people carry their burdens. Seeking a new future in Last Chance County doesn’t start so well when she’s the one being rescued from a client’s burning house. To make matters worse, now she’s stuck evaluating the truck and rescue squads for the fire department. When the chief overhears why she left her last job, she’s determined to prove to him and her boss that she’s still the right therapist to assess his crew.

No matter if success takes everything she’s got.

Fire Chief Macon James is the right man for the job. He doesn’t need a therapist interfering with the running of his crew or putting his position in jeopardy when a counselor is what tore his family apart. He’s got to get his firefighters to be a team, and he can do it without Natalie’s help. After an explosion destroys her car, it quickly becomes clear she might need him as much as everyone thinks he needs her. If these two stubborn hearts will surrender, they could have everything they want.

Or it could all go down in flames.

My Review

Expired Hope

By Lisa Phillips with Megan Besing

Book 2 in the Last Chance Fire & Rescue series

Rating: 4.5/5

Having never read anything from Lisa Phillips, I was pleasantly surprised at how much I enjoyed this book she co-wrote with Megan Besing for Sunrise Publishing. I am a big fan of Sunrise and this series did not disappoint. The nonstop action and high stakes suspense was so well done and kept me reading. The characters were well written and fleshed out. The romance was believable and not rushed. Faith aspects were woven throughout.

Highly recommend this adrenaline-pumping Christian romantic suspense novel that can be read as a standalone although it’s part of a series! You will want to go back and read the first book and I definitely can’t wait to read what comes next!

My thanks to the author and publisher for providing me with an ARC of the book. All opinions expressed here are entirely my own. No positive review was expected and no compensation received.
