Book excerpt: Teagan Tremayne had once hoped to go to college and pursue a career as an artist. Things hadn't gone as planned, and she now co-owned the Tremayne Tavern with her brother. She was content in her small town and had no desire to meet a man until two newcomers caught her eye. It irritated her that a few of her friends had advised her against looking at the two firefighters. Maybe that's why her gaze kept straying in their direction. Emile and Blake De La Fuente, cousins who were only two years apart in age. They did everything together: became firefighters, EMTs, ski patrollers, and even lived together. One thing they loved doing together was something that made others uncomfortable, women. Teagan Tremayne had caught their eye on arrival into town; now all they had to do was persuade her that they wanted more than one night.
