Where There's Smoke. . .
by Barbara McCauley

Emily Barone could remember nothing about her near-death experience in a Boston fire — except for the rock-hard chest and strong arms of the fireman who pulled her to safety. She and Shane Cummings generated a heat hotter than any blaze.

Trapped in a family full of strangers, Emily was drawn to Shane's familiar face...and oh-so-virile body. Theirs was a liaison Shane enjoyed — for as long as it lasted. For while Emily tracked her elusive memory, Shane couldn't help but fear it was the one thing that could take her away from him.
