At worst, they call her lazy or a liar.Better to just keep her secrets to herself and keep her distance from almost everybody.But this tiny town's sexy fire chief won't seem to accept her attempt at solitude. He keeps showing up all patient and witty and a great dad. Everything Hannah has ever hoped for if she allowed herself to admit it.He says he's ready to fight her battles with her.Will he still feel that way when he finds out the truth?
