The hardest rescue Buck ever made... was convincing Lia Hayes she deserved to be saved too.
Description
Lillian "Lia" Hayes has spent twelve years proving she belongs in a firefighter's turnout gear.
After losing her father in a warehouse collapse at sixteen, she built a reputation as one of Los Angeles's best firefighter-paramedics-calm under pressure, fearless in the face of danger, and always willing to put herself last.
When Captain Bobby Nash personally requests her transfer to Station 118, Lia expects another firehouse.
She doesn't expect a family.
She definitely doesn't expect Evan Buckley.
Buck is loud, optimistic, and impossible to ignore. Lia is sarcastic, guarded, and determined not to let anyone get too close. They clash from the moment they meet, turning every training exercise into a competition and every conversation into a battle of wit.
But somewhere between late-night rescues, impossible calls, and stolen coffees before shift, friendship becomes something harder to ignore.
As old wounds resurface and new disasters threaten everything they've built, Buck and Lia will have to learn that sometimes the bravest thing a firefighter can do isn't running into a burning building-
It's letting someone else carry you out.
