Fire and Rain

Since the death of their mother, Josten Applewhite has done what he’s had to do to take care of his little brother and keep their small family together. But in an instant, a stroke of bad luck tears down what little home he’s managed to build, and Jos and Isaac end up on the streets.
That’s where Officer Kip Rogers finds them, and even though he knows he should let the proper authorities handle things, he cannot find it in his heart to turn them away, going so far as to invite them to stay in his home until they get back on their feet. With the help of Kip and his friends, Jos starts to rebuild his life. But experience has taught him nothing comes for free, and the generosity seems too good to be true—just like everything about Kip.
Kip’s falling hard for Jos, and he likes the way Jos and Isaac make his big house feel like a home. But their arrangement can’t be permanent, not with Jos set on making his own way. Then a distant relative emerges, determined to destroy Jos’s family, and Kip knows Jos needs him—even if he’s not ready to admit it.

De la moartea mamei lor, Josten Applewhite a facut ceea ce trebuia sa faca pentru a avea grija de fratiorul sau si a mentine familia lor mica. Dar intr-o clipa, o lovitura de ghinion darama casuta pe care a reusit sa o construiasca, iar Jos si Isaac ajung pe strazi. Acolo ii gaseste ofiterul Kip Rogers si, desi stie ca ar trebui sa lase autoritatile competente sa se ocupe. lucruri, nu-si gaseste in inima lui sa le indeparteze, mergand atat de departe incat sa-i invite sa ramana in casa lui pana se vor intoarce pe picioare.
