Ratings1
Average rating5
After a night of too many drinks, smokejumper Tony Warren and his best friend, photographer Kayla Gladney, come to the realization that they’re both bad at love. They even tried dating each other, but that crashed and burned, too. Now he’s got the hangover from hell and the certain conclusion he’s just a shit boyfriend. But Kayla thinks he’s a straight-up commitment-phobe. So they make a bet—they’re going to hunt down his exes and decide once and for all why he’s so unlucky in love. Terrible boyfriend or commitment-phobe. Why does either answer feel like he’s still losing? But between roadside burgers and late night detours, they discover some fires never burn out—like the one slowly smoldering between them. And suddenly losing feels a whole lot like winning again. Each book in the Where There’s Smoke series is STANDALONE: * The Two-Date Rule * Just a Little Bet * The Best Kept Secret

Ever since meeting these two in “The Two-Date Rule”, I've been wanting to read Kayla and Tony's story. I simply loved watching their friendship evolve into (so much) more!
As is also the case in the first smokejumper book, there is a lot of not-so-happy backstory and some tough issues for both to work through. It really tugged on my heartstrings, and I felt deeply for both Kayla and Tony.
But there is still enough of the lighthearted banter I am used to in Tawna's stories, as well as some truly snort-laugh-worthy moments. And, of course, there's Fireball who gets his very own HEA too!
5/5 hot and heart-melting stars
