As I scurried out of the firehouse, I wondered what kind of moron I was. Max was handsome, charming, friendly, sexy, kind, and a freakin’ firefighting hero that saved my dog.
How could I turn down a date with him? It would have most likely been the romantic highlight of my entire life, and I said ‘no thanks’ to it.
Even Bruiser was glaring up at me as if I had just lost my mind. I had to glance away from the dog’s unrelenting stare, but I could still feel him judging me, so I said, “I know. I know. I made a huge mistake.”
I plopped down on a bench just outside the fire station. Feeling the need to justify my decision, I added, “But it might have been an even bigger mistake to go out with him. He’s obviously irresistible. If I fall for him, I’m bound to get my heart broken.”
