'I managed to acquire both my kid and my cat while on the job. Any chance you guys want to get into arson as a hobby so I can maybe find a husband too?'
When Ridge was the new guy in town, he didn't mind being the single one. After all, he's had his job and raising his daughter to distract him. But now that three years have gone by, he's starting to wonder if maybe something's wrong with him. Everyone else he knows has tripped and fallen into love. So why hasn't there been even a hint of romance for him?
Then his daughter's very hot, very straight, deaf mentor kisses him at a party in front of his family. But it wasn't for no reason. Oz confesses that his mom and sister have been trying to set him back up with his ex, and he needs a way out.
For Ridge, who has been nursing a crush on Oz for a year, this is the ultimate fantasy. But when Oz starts showing signs that he wants more than just pretend, Ridge isn't sure. Can he trust this man with his heart? Especially when his heart isn't the only one on the line?
Ridge has spent most of his life saving people, but soon he'll learn if there's a hero waiting to save him, too.
Saving You is the sixth book in the Words We Never Said series. It features a friends-to-lovers romance with a happily ever after. In this book you will find an exhausted single dad with a hero complex, a first-year teacher trying to find the balance between work, personal life, and a family who won't stop making things harder, fake dates, falling head over heels, and knowing that if it doesn't come from the existential crisis region of France, it's just sparkling anxiety.
