“So, did you become a firefighter because chicks dig them, or do you have a hero complex?” Rafe Montgomery was the fire chief, and the man looked like he belonged in the movies. On the big billboard and everything. He had thick, dark brown hair that was almost black and light brown eyes that looked gold in some lights, especially when he was holding in laughter.

“A hero complex?” His lips curled into a charming smile I was sure set plenty of hearts on fire. “Haven’t you heard? I’m an actual hero.”

He was attractive and charming, but there was no damn spark anywhere in sight. Still, I tossed my head back and laughed. “So, you’re one of the guys Janey convinced to go shirtless for charity?”

Rafe leaned in and stole one of my nachos, deep rumbling laughter erupting when I smacked his hand away. “If I say yes, are you gonna go out and pre-order one?”

I tapped my chin and grinned. “Maybe. I mean, the rest of the heroes are pretty hot, too, so if there’s just one dud, at least it’s for charity.” Rafe was just what I needed after a long day of reminding myself that I didn’t do jealousy. Ever. At all. He was entertaining eye candy, which was, frankly, the best kind.

He laughed again and stole another nacho. “Damn, these are good. And the perfect way to make up for being so mean.”

I frowned. “I wasn’t mean enough to share my nachos with you, Chief.”

Rafe shrugged and ordered a beer as Buddy walked past. “Where’s a little thing like you gonna put all this food?”

“I’ll find a place, Rafe, don’t you worry.” I had a healthy metabolism, and running around Scott’s office all day was an excellent calorie burner. Not to mention the Tuesday and Thursday runs to local farms and ranches, which included plenty of physical activity.

“Am I interrupting?” Scott’s deep voice boomed between us, sounding jealous and unhappy. A quick look in the mirror behind the bar revealed he was both.

“Yes,” I said sharply.

“Nope,” Rafe said at the same time, giving me a look that said he didn’t want to get in the middle of whatever the hell was on Scott’s mind.

“Actually, we were in the middle of an entertaining conversation. How can I help you, Scott?”

He blinked, like he didn’t understand why his macho pissing routine wasn’t working. “We need to talk.”

Rafe stood with an apologetic grin. “Catch you later, Stevie.”

My shoulders fell, not because I wanted Rafe to stay but because I didn’t want any part of the thunderous expression on Scott’s face. “Next time, I might even share my nachos with you.”

He laughed and gave my shoulder a light squeeze as he passed, stopping to whisper in my ear. “Don’t be too hard on him, he’s a good guy. And if that picture on Facebook is anything to go by, you think so, too.”

Picture? “What picture?”

Rafe laughed and turned to Scott. “I’ll let Scott tell you all about it.” He grinned and walked away, joining Ty and a couple other men at a table nearby.
