Once burned is all it takes...
Twelve years ago, Fire Captain Raul Montenga left Rancho del Cielo--and Penelope Gibson--far, far behind, desperate never to end up trapped in a life his parents planned for him. Haunted by erotic dreams of a night that had never happened, he finally comes home for good, only to be confused by Penelope's cold shoulder and icy rejection. So imagine his shock to answer his door one day and find her tomboy daughter standing nervously on his porch...claiming to be his child.
Dr. Penelope Gibson overcame just about every obstacle in her life to become the new town doctor--her father's death, her mother's indifference, her ridiculous crush on a boy she'd never wanted her back and finally, the pregnancy that changed her life for the better. But now Raul’s back, thanks to her daughter's sly plans, and the feelings she’d thought frozen solid are melting in his wake. Along with her inhibitions, her clothes and all her better judgment.
No matter how hard Penelope tries to hold on to her old way of life, everything is changing. Raul might tempt her, her daughter might be determined to have the family she's always wanted, and the town might be cheering for a happily ever after she wants more than she can ever say, but no one knows the secret she hides. And if the truth ever gets out, all Penelope's dreams may just go up in smoke...
