Blurb

When Maren Bernabe stops by the office to update some paperwork, she’s not looking for love. Then sparks fly during an awkward meet-cute with a stranger in the bathroom, and suddenly anything seems possible.

A seasoned air tanker pilot, Maren battles fires across the rugged Montana wilderness. With firefighters for roommates, she’s no stranger to tough guys—or tough situations. Ozzy Laster is the helpful stranger she meets, one of Cielo Aviation’s newest aircraft mechanics who’s faced his fair share of hardship too. Two years ago, his wife and father died in a car crash. Now Ozzy and daughter Lola shun cars in favor of bikes.

Maren and Ozzy fall hard, but guilt forces them to hide their relationship from Ozzy’s disapproving in-laws. And Lola. They all want to protect her from more heartbreak. But when tragedy strikes again, Lola’s reaction will surprise them all. And Ozzy could get a second chance at love after all…

Review

5 stars!

“It’s never the things I see coming that take my breath away. It’s the moments that come from nowhere.”

From Nowhere is the second book in the Wildfire series and another 5 star read that went straight on my favorites shelf. This author has flawlessly written a love story that consumed me and made me feel all the emotions. Maren and Ozzy’s romance is one that will stay with me and this story with all its layers deserves all the stars.

Ozzy wasn’t looking for love after tragedy struck his life in more ways than one. He lost almost everything in an instant and now he will do anything for his daughter Lola. His life is not easy and he faces a lot of challenges when it comes to taking care of Lola. They experienced such devastation that had lasting effects but he always puts her first. It makes it hard to open his heart to anyone else because his life isn’t exactly normal.

And then Maren walks into his life. She’s different. She’s strong, understanding, and patient. There’s a spark between them but there are challenges that make it difficult to find time to even explore what can be. They do find moments but not wanting to bring any more pain to Lola, they hide their relationship. Then real feelings sneak up on them and they have to face how they feel if they ever want to be more.

Ozzy and Maren are wonderful, well-developed characters. I wanted more of Maren when I met her in From Air because I was intrigued by her job as an air tanker pilot. She is so brave and lives her life to the fullest, taking risks and giving her all to the things she loves. She brings humor and heart to the story and I loved loved loved how patient she is with Ozzy and Lola.

Ozzy is a dream. He loves with his whole heart and knows how to make a girl feel special. I loved every moment between Ozzy and Maren. They made me laugh, cry, and swoon. I was frustrated at times and because their relationship is complex, they make us experience all the ups and downs; however, everything is worth it to get their HEA.

“There’s nothing more epic than falling in love with someone who loved my daughter first.”

I also loved Lola and her relationships with Ozzy and Maren. My heart broke for her and what she went through, and though I wanted to speed up her recovery, her growth comes at a time in the story that changes everything.

Seeing Fitz, Jamie, and Will again was fantastic and I desperately want more of this group! I hope Will gets his HEA!
