Laurel Springs Emergency Response Team

If you don't love, you can't get hurt.... Nick Kepler One thing my childhood taught me was never show my emotions. Don't make memories. Don't count on other people. Don't hope for the best. All that changed when I was adopted by Ryan and Whitney Kepler. Begrudgingly, I let them into my life, along with my new sister and a best friend I would lay down my life for. But giving up my heart and accepting love in return from Kelsea Harrison? It's the hardest thing I've ever tried to do. And the truth is? I'm not sure if I'm that strong. Kelsea Harrison From the very moment I met Nick Kepler, I knew he would be the love of my life. Problem is I haven't been able to convince him of that yet. When our best friends get married, Nick and I spend a drunken night letting our walls down and losing all our inhibitions. In one moment I'm given everything I ever wanted. Then, in the blink of an eye, it's taken away from me. The question is, can I be strong for the both of us? The answer? I have to be.

It's not how we make mistakes, but how we correct them that defines us… Karsyn Fallaway Tucker didn't stop my car as it drove away from his house that summer night, and the sting of rejection hasn't gone away. Over a year has gone by, and I find myself looking for him in all the places he'd been before. It doesn't help, he's still an enigma I have yet to figure out.
 My friends are the only thing holding me together. Work is the one thing keeping my mind busy.
Until my life threatens to tear completely apart.
 Tucker Williams She drove away and my pride wouldn't allow me to stop her. A year later, regret keeps me up at night, forcing me to replay the moment in my head. Working with the K-9's is the only thing keeping me going. Becoming close with the former MTF is a perk I hadn't counted on.
 When a child is kidnapped, all the hard feelings have to be put aside to save a life. 
Secrets are unearthed, and this time as Karsyn threatens to break, I know I'm the one to put her back together.
