Eleanor Rose Nash didn't grow up with anything close to a normal childhood. By fourteen, she had run from an abusive home and learned to survive on her own-fast, harsh lessons that shaped her into someone tough, guarded, and fiercely self-reliant.
At twenty, she met Bobby Nash at an AA meeting. Neither of them was looking for family, but they found it anyway, two broken lives quietly fitting together through shared loss, addiction, and survival. When Bobby moved to Los Angeles, he didn't leave her behind. He asked her to come with him.
She said yes.
Over time, Bobby became the father she never had, and Eleanor became the daughter he didn't get to have. They pulled each other out of dark places until adoption papers made what they were feel official. A family, chosen and real.
Ten years ago, she had nothing but survival. Now she had a home at the 118, a family in Bobby Nash, and a place she finally belonged.
And then a blonde-haired, blue-eyed firefighter joined the 118.
They became best friends almost instantly-easy laughs, shared shifts, an unspoken understanding that felt just as natural as breathing. For the first time in years, Eleanor let someone in without bracing for impact.
Until it hit her, quietly and without warning, that what she felt for him might not just be friendship at all.
And suddenly, everything changed.
