Book Description
Bridger
I always have been.
The torment that Dani Lexington went through at the hands of her father was something no child should have had to endure. But I was the lucky one she turned to.
Our age difference and the fact that her brother was my best friend kept her off-limits, even though something was always there, lingering under the surface.
But when she was old enough, she left Bitterroot Valley, and I was forced to move on with my life.
I got married and had my little girl. Now, I’m a single dad, focused on my job as fire chief and making sure my daughter stays healthy after a mysterious illness has plagued her for the past year.
But after Dani’s father dies, she returns to Bitterroot Valley and is now living across the street from my daughter and me.
Dani’s no longer a child. No longer off limits.
This time, I won’t let anything or anyone stop me from being her safe place again.
Dani
I’ve been in love with Bridger Blackwell for as long as I can remember.
He’s a smoke show, kind, and gives the best hugs in the world. But best of all?
He’s everything my sorry excuse for a father wasn’t.
Now, I’m back in Bitterroot Valley, living across the street from Bridger and his adorable daughter.
It doesn’t take long for all those old feelings to come rushing back, and every cell in my body knows that I belong with them.
That they’re mine.
Bridger’s arms are where I feel safest. They feel like home.
I’m growing to depend on him, to truly love him and his daughter. But I have deep-rooted baggage, and Bridger’s past has decided to rear its ugly head.
Will we survive this, or is our relationship doomed from the start?

My Thoughts
I discovered this book through a Facebook audio group I am in. I could not wait to listen to this book. I downloaded it as soon as I could and was so happy I did.
Dani is back in the town she grew up in now that her father is gone. She has moved into the house across the street from Brisger, a childhood friend who was her safe place growing up. Dani has always loved Brisger but because of her upbringing never really got the chance to explore those feelings. Now that she is back and living across the street, maybe that can change. But can she let Brisger in or will her childhood trauma keep her from being loved? Plus, what about his daughter, can she learn to be a mother to that sweet girl?
Bridger is the local firefighter and a single dad. When Dani moves in across the street, he is reminded how much he has wanted her and loved her for years. Growing up, she was off limits because she was his best friend's little sister, not to mention the trauma she suffered at the hands of her father. But Brisger can't ignore his growing love for her and decides it's time to take what he wants. Can Bridger show Dani just how much she is loved? Can he still be her safe place and be the man that protects her? Or will Dani let her past keep her from being loved the way she deserved?
This book was so good. IT broke my heart, made me laugh and even had me saying aww so many times. It was a roller coaster of emotions. As I chose to go with the audio version, it was so good to hear it come to life. The narrators did a fabulous job breathing life into the characters. They were amazing together and the author did a wonderful job writing.
I loved how close everyone was in the story, from the siblings to the friends. I felt the author did a great job writing about the trauma and how she gave the female lead a safe space. This book was good from story to characters to the narration. It is a book you can revisit over and over and never get tired of it. For me it was a perfect 10.
