by Christa MauriceArden FD, #3 Sometimes a dream life is really a nightmare. Rebecca has big plans. She's going to be a famous artist, even if she has to sell her soul to do it.

Ducking into the local fire station during a rainstorm, she finds the perfect way to distract herself--a hot firefighter with a big ego begging to be toyed with. Dan would be the first to admit he has a big ego, but there's something about Rebecca... Hunting her down after that first kiss in the rain turns out to be the easy part. Making her happy might be impossible. But Dan is willing to do whatever it takes, including helping her buy back her soul. Maybe it was the rain, maybe it was the uniform.
