Last Chance Fire and Rescue, Book 2

By: Lisa Phillips, Megan Besing

Narrated by: A. W. Miller

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.

It grabs you from the beginning!

I loved this story! Watching the characters grow and overcome their own fears and insecurities to help others was my favorite part. I was on pins and needle’s wondering where the author was going next and which character was going to find themselves in a stressful situation next. They learned to trust in each other and in God as they found themselves fighting for their lives and each others. Full of suspense, heartbreak, triumphs, joys, twists and turns.. this is an excellent listen!

the characterization

nothing. I enjoyed it all. Great plot, Interesting story lie. Scary scenes. Interesting information about firefighters and firefighting.
