Review: Even though this is a series each book can be read individually or in any order just fine.
When Steven stays behind to find a little girl and has to stay behind alone in the middle school with the waters rising quickly, his only regret is his fight with his lover that morning.
Derrick being a fire chief in a small town has to choose between his duties and his personal feelings of rescuing his lover. Will an argument be the last thing he gets to say to him?
For a short story, there is a lot of drama and passion in both the words and between these two men. You can feel the pain in the air as well as the approaching floods.
I will say that it did start a bit slow and a few things in the first couple chapters felt a bit repetitive but once the storm hit so did the pace of the story.
If you like a good series based on natural disasters, drama, suspense, and romance this is for you.
