Trustworthy Companions: Trustworthy Companions

Iraq veteran Jaime Evanston is home, seeking a change in her life. Trying to forget a scarring army experience, she must also bury her anguish after a painful breakup with the man she thought was the love of her life. His betrayal and her wartime experiences have left her emotionally closed off, but when she inherits her grandmother's ranch in Texas, profound transformations are in store. Jaime joins the Calhoun Fire Department and endeavors to prove to her coworkers that a woman can be as strong and courageous as the traditional "macho" firefighters. As she battles gender expectations, she crosses paths with C.J. Handle, a young woman whose trust issues rival Jaime's, and Dr. Adam Colchester, a handsome, young emergency-room doctor. Can Jaime find an ally in the wary C.J.? And is she ready to open her heart again and take a chance on love? Complications-an arsonist deliberately setting a string of dangerous fires and an unwelcome face from Jaime's Iraq unit-galvanize the physical action. Jaime will have to trust again-her new friends and her own inner strength-to face the flames ahead. Firefighting, mystery, friendship, and romance combine in Trustworthy Companions-a real five-alarm thriller!
