This novel is smooth and easy to read, yet it still gives you lots to think about.  There are times when I was completely frustrated with the situations that the characters had to deal with (even though they do happen everyday).  I was offended on their behalf.  And then there are some parts of this novel that are so sweet that they'll give you a toothache.  This story is eloquent yet flows very naturally, never stiff or forced.  She paints a picture with her words, giving you a visual of not only the scenery but the characters and the action as well.  Also, the way that Lain works slang into the narrative and dialogue makes the story itself feel that much more personal.I am definitely in love with the characters in this novel.  Lain sets forth a brilliant pair of individuals to drool over in this one.  They are both very strong individuals that you want to see find themselves and each other.  They are exceedingly well and naturally developed.  That said, Lain is not one of those authors who throws every random detail about a character at her readers.  The supporting cast is also quite unique in its development.  I love how each character is at a different stage of development based on their role in this novel.  No one is underdeveloped to fill their role, nor do they overshadow our hunky leads.One of the best parts of this novel was the fact that, although tied in with the rest of the series, this novel can very easily be read as a standalone novel.  Everything required is found between the covers of this novel.  It was a frustratingly heart-warming novel that I'd recommend to anyone who'd like some time with two swoon worthy firefighters.Please note that I received this novel free of charge from the author/publisher/blog tour company in exchange for an honest review.
