Captain Casey Ryan had no idea that he was about to embark on a life of hurt and pain over love. He never expected to fall deeply in love with his FEMA instructor. He had spent the weekend with her and had never felt such closeness and love for another person before her. Unfortunately, she did not feel the same way. Her memory and desire for her consumed him since the day they said goodbye. When an earthquake struck western Colorado, all federal, state, and local government services were activated. It would reunite Casey and his long-lost love. She'd be in charge of the entire operation, and he'd be working for her. Is fate giving Casey a second chance at love? Will she finally give in this time?
