About this listen
Losing her father to the 9/11 terrorist attack at the tender age of three, has Genesis Farris longing for what she feels is missing. Being that her mother never remarried or even introduced another man into their lives, it made her that much more curious about what it was like to be loved by one. She’s always wanted to know and experience what was so special or significant about a man’s love, but she was far from the point of desperation. Just from the stories she’d heard about her father, she knew that he wanted what was best for her, so she refused to settle for less than that.
While on the job as one of the most decorated firefighters in her city, she comes face to face with who she believes will be the man to school her on all the things she is ignorant about. The situation is extremely dangerous, and she’s hoping the attraction isn’t simply a trauma bond. She doesn’t plan to waste time on something that won’t have the potential to be permanent. Judge Patrick isn’t a man that easily accepts rejection, but Genesis knows her worth and refuses to accept anything less, regardless of status and prestige.
Kyrie Patrick is an educated man who believes in pulling yourself up by the bootstraps to get the things you want and deserve. He’s the youngest judge in the state and the first black judge from his hometown to ever be elected to office. Those facts have Kyrie thinking more highly of himself than he should and that ruffles some people’s feathers. He constantly looks over his shoulder, because he doesn’t trust people. He’s gained plenty of enemies along the way for being a presiding judge for the criminal court of appeals and for not always seeing beyond black and white.
While he would love to have a woman to share his life and all of his successes with, he isn’t in a hurry. He didn’t have the greatest example of how a man should love a woman growing up, so he is learning on the fly. He believes the love of his life will eventually cross his path if fate has its way. That fateful day comes when he faces a matter of life and death. The angel of mercy pays him a visit in the form of a gorgeous firefighter that leads him to the light in more ways than one.
Although sparks fly between Genesis and Kyrie, they chalk it up to their emotions being high and their traumatic vulnerability due to the situation. Commonality brings them closer, causing them to reevaluate their chemistry. However, egos get in the way and jeopardize their chances of reaching the heights they’d hoped for, not to mention constant threats on Kyrie’s life. Will they be able to tread through the dangers faced and get beyond their own vices and insecurities to establish something special, or will they choose to cut their losses and focus their efforts on their individual safety, careers, and futures?

August Hanson was the silent type, the kind who spoke through his actions and not his words. He possessed enough power to make me feel safe and secure. I was ready to open up and share the parts of myself I’d never shared with another, and then I got hit with a truth that changed everything. There was a slight chance he’d still want me, only he had to accept our baby, too.

I knew I wanted her since the first time I saw her at that kitchen counter sobbing. I could see the pain in her eyes, and I knew she had never been loved right. She probably never had someone console or love her the way that I knew I would. I couldn't love her then. My heart wouldn't allow me to, knowing that everything or everyone that loves me ends up leaving this earth.
