Life can change in an instant, but with found family and forever love, hope is never lost.

Adam didn’t think twice before risking his life to save a child from a car wreck—but the injuries he sustained cost him his career and left him battling chronic pain. At his lowest, it was his friends and family who refused to let him give up, reminding him that even when dreams shatter, hope remains. When Cameron and his son, Finn, arrive at his doorstep, Adam never expects to fall for the small family—or to find a new purpose that just might make him a hero again.

Cameron’s world crumbles overnight, transforming him from a devoted husband to a single dad. With his carefully built future in ruins, he’ll do whatever it takes to give his son a fresh start—even if it means moving across the country. Renting a room from Adam is only supposed to be temporary, a step toward rebuilding. Falling for the former firefighter? That was never part of the plan.

But when the past comes calling, threatening Cameron’s fragile new beginning, will he have to face it alone? Or will Adam and Finn show him that love, family, and hope will always be worth fighting for?
