The Fire Chief's Desire - Lake Chelan Shirley Penick

Trapped in the friend zone.

Greg Jones has a great life. He's assistant chief of the town's volunteer fire department, he owns his own profitable tavern, he's got a pre-law degree, and never has trouble finding a willing female to spend time with. The only problem in his perfect life is the woman he's loved for over a decade has him firmly in the friend zone. Not just any friend, but the best friend of her younger brother.

Sandy Anderson is at the top of her career as a video game designer. Her creation Adventures with Tsilly has had three successful releases with plans for more. She's got a great career! Fortunately, when her mother has an accident and ends up with a broken leg, Sandy has the freedom to spend the summer in her home town helping run her mother's Bed and Breakfast. It's easy to work remotely and communicate with her team in Seattle.

Greg sees Sandy's return home for the summer as his chance to convince her that he can be more than her brother's best friend, and the three-year age difference between them is nothing but numbers. He's got three months to go from friend to lover. The time starts now.

Join Sandy and Greg as they circle around each other and their desires.
