For once, I wanted to be something more than just a hookup. I wanted to be. . . worth more.

Most days, Andrea Walters doesn't know whether she wants to kiss Tanner Hammond or punch him in the gut. He's been hot since the day they met, with insane bedroom eyes and that firefighter's body of his - but he's also a major player, and the two of them have never been able to get along for more than a handful of minutes at a time.

Tanner knows he and Andrea are infamous for their love/hate relationship, but lately, he's found himself wanting more love than hate from her. He wants her, period. But the more he gets to know the girl behind the fiery mask, the more it becomes obvious that Andrea has a problem. She's teetering on the edge of disaster, and every time he tries to catch her, she slips through his fingers.

Between her drinking and the demons beneath it, Andrea's life is spiralling out of control, and it doesn't matter that Tanner wants to save her - because when everything falls apart and she's speeding toward rock bottom, only she can save herself.
