Summer Love Puppy: The Hart Family

If you love sweet romances (PG-rating), look no further than Rachelle Ayala's Have a Hart series. The Harts are a family of San Francisco firefighters. Their family motto is: Heart comes first.

A story of second chances and haunting secrets. Can love heal the scars of the past?

Former smokejumper Linx Colson hasn’t forgiven wildland firefighter Grady Hart for something she regrets. Linx keeps her hurts while rescuing stray dogs, including one she’s desperate to keep secret from Grady.

Grady is back to rebuild his life and turns Linx’s carefully orchestrated life upside down. When a suspicious character reemerges in their lives, Grady and Linx must work together to protect the little girl and her family. With a missing puppy, a little girl in need, and secrets that could destroy them, Grady and Linx must learn to trust each other and overcome their past to find true love.

As they navigate their complicated relationship, they must also deal with the aftermath of a devastating fire that threatens to tear them apart. Can they heal each other’s wounds and find happiness with a new furry addition (or more) to their family?

What is Linx hiding, and what will Grady do when the woman he distrusts is the one he can’t live without?

Summer Love Puppy is Book #6 of the Have A Hart Romance Series. It can be read standalone, although characters from the previous books appear here in supporting roles. Please note that Grady and Linx are edgier than the usual Hart characters, but in keeping with the sweet designation of the series, any steam is off-screen and fade to black.
