He's a single dad with a hero complex and a dangerous smile.
She's the no-nonsense vet who's sworn off men in uniform.

But when a mischievous puppy crashes into their lives, sparks fly?and hearts are on the line.

Jack "JD" Dawson thrives on danger?charging into fires with his crew and wrangling his wild twin boys at home.

He's Cedar Springs' most incorrigible flirt... until one scrappy rescue puppy and an emergency vet visit throw him into the orbit of the one woman who doesn't swoon at his swagger.

Dr. Riley James plays by her own rules: quiet life, steady work, and zero firefighters. After a childhood marked by loss, she knows better than to fall for a man with a high-risk job and charm for days.

But she never planned for a pair of giggling boys, a puppy with no off switch, or a firefighter who seems hell-bent on tearing down her walls with kindness and dad jokes.

What starts as reluctant puppy parenting soon turns into late-night calls, baseball games, and tension hotter than any four-alarm fire.

He's all heart. She's all armor. And neither one is prepared for just how fast love can burn when fate?and two kids?won't take no for an answer.

She's guarding her heart. He's already all in.
In Cedar Springs, love isn't just found?it's fought for.
