When confronted by the raging fires or deadly accidents, volunteer fireman Taylor McAden feels compelled to take terrifying risks - risks no one else in the department would ever take - to save lives. But there is one leap of faith Taylor cannot bring himself to make. He cannot fall in love. For all his adult years, Taylor has sought out women who need to be rescued, women he leaves as soon as their crisis is over, as soon as the relationship starts to become truly intimate.
Then, one day, a raging, record breaking storm hits his small southern town. Denise Holton, a young single mother, is driving through it when her car skids off the road. With her is her four year old son, Kyle, a boy with severe learning disabilities for whom she has sacrificed everything. Taylor finds her unconscious and bleeding, but when she wakes, the chilling truth is clear: Kyle is gone.
During the search for Kyle, a connection between Taylor and Denise takes root. Taylor doesn't know that this rescue will be different from all the others, demanding far more that raw physical courage. That it will require him to open doors to his past that were slammed shut by pain. That it will lead him to the possibility of his own rescue from a life lived without love.

sending to blueangel24 as a suprise RABCK - hope you enjoy!!!
Just got this book as a nice surprise from Kera. I haven't had the time to check BC since I'm busy preparing for my professional licensure examination so I didn't know that someone did a RABCK for me. Thank you so much.
The book was mailed to me and actually came at a good time. I was feeling depressed but it really made my day when I came home from work and someone told me that there's a package for me. It actually changed my mood for this week since I've been feeling a bit downcast from the pressure and stresses of studying for my licensure exmaination.
Hopefully, I'll be able to read it as soon as my licensure examination is over. Again, Kera thank you coz you've made me feel better. ^__^

This book will be on loan to my cousin in China.I still haven't read it. Hopefully by the time my cousin returns from China I will have more free time to read it.
My cousin blueangel24 lent me this book. And as much as I have the time to read it 2weeks ago, i was able to finish it the whole weekend.
I like the book, though not as much as I love The Notebook (from the same author). But still the passion, the complexities of life is still caught in this story, The Rescue.
