Who will save a man who saves the world?

Paramedic Mickey Kendall hasn’t slept a full night since his return from Iraq. He rescues victims by day and protects the innocent after dark. Mickey doesn’t do it for glory; he wants absolution, not admiration. He lives by the rule: No personal contact after a rescue. That code meets the ultimate test when Mickey saves a child’s life on a roadside and declines the parents’ invitation to dinner at their upscale restaurant.

Master chef Amanda Greer lives by the principle that delicious food and good company build bridges. When she learns Mickey has refused her business partners’ hospitality, she persuades him to change his mind. The handsome paramedic visits her restaurant and Amanda joins him at his table. Their unexpected chemistry turns kinetic and leads to a passionate kiss.

In Amanda’s arms, Mickey finds relief from the stressors that haunt him, but resists falling in love. When Amanda challenges him to face his demons and accept the love she offers, Mickey arrives at a crossroad. The war-weary paramedic must first save himself to claim the woman who reignites his passion for living and revives his wounded heart.

Mickey Kendall is a paramedic who after returning from his tour in Iraq has been dealing with his own demons. Amanda is master chef at “Organics Fantastic” a restaurant co-owned by her friend Elena and her husband.Β  Mickey saves Elena’s son from near chocking to death and is invited to her restaurant to show her graditude there he meets Amanda and there is a connection they both feel but Mickey has a no contact rule that he does not have contact with people he has helped/rescued. As Mickey is fighting an internal battle with his attraction to Amanda and his no contact rule he is at a lose as to how to proceed. This is a sweet romantic story about two people trying to overcome obstacles/demons to get to there happily ever after.
