description: Savanna Thompson knows what it's like when you blink and your life shatters. She's been hiding her divorce from her best friend Cassie, but she knows she can't any longer. Cassie's husband, a firefighter, just died. Savanna rushes home, along with her one-year-old daughter to help, and now she's staying with Cassie in a nursery meant for a baby that won't ever exist. She will fix their relationship, but it's complicated with Jason around. He's the firefighter who saved Savanna's life two and a half years ago. He just lost his best friend, and like Cassie, he blames himself for Mike's death. When he convinced Mike to remain with the department, how could he know Mike would die fighting a house fire? Though hurting herself, something deep inside her won't let her walk away. Jason needs her but she's off limits on so many levels. She's falling for this sexy firefighter but he confuses her to no end. Being stuck in the middle is enough stress, plus her own problems are festering behind her helping smile. Can Savanna find the balance between loving Jason, helping Cassie, and taking care of herself and her daughter? Or is she going to lose this bet and her best friend?
