In finding each other, will they lose themselves?

Paramedic Lance Patterson knows you can't save everyone. Still, when he notices an injured dog limping along the outskirts of a car accident, he decides that maybe he can save just one more. A visit to the vet and a big bill later, Lance has another problem-the beautiful veterinary assistant that he can't get out of his head. But even if he could get her to remember his name, he's not sure that now is the time for love. After all, he's got an unexpected new dog, a demanding job, and a mother who's recovering from a recent stroke.

Becca Williams has plans much different than her life as a veterinary assistant, or her sister's editing assistant, or any kind of assistant at all. The truth is that she likes helping people, and she's good at it. Still, it's time to pull away from her hyper-successful, animal-loving family and find her own way. Which doesn't involve any hot paramedics, especially of the puppy-rescuing variety.

But when Lance needs help teaching his dog to use her paw fully again, how can she say no?

A little time leads to a lot, and soon Becca is being pulled away from her dreams. Again. And Lance is sure he can save everything. Again.

When is it time to let go, and when is it time to hold on?
