But when he meets Kayla Dienner, he is smitten. Kayla tries hard to deny her attraction to Jamie. The death of her older brother in a fire is fresh in her mind—and she can’t bear the idea of putting her heart on the line every time the sirens blare.

Room on the Porch Swing Less than a year after her mother’s death, Laura Riehl finds herself burying another loved one: her best friend, Savilla, who dies after a brief and sudden illness. Laura feels heartbroken and alone, but her pain is nothing compared to that of Allen, the husband Savilla has left behind. When Laura offers to help Allen with his baby, he jumps at the opportunity. She’d do anything to lend a hand and to honor her best friend’s memory. Rudy, Laura’s boyfriend, is initially supportive of her plan, but the more time Laura spends with Allen, the more jealous Rudy becomes. As Laura and Allen face hardships together, their friendship takes a surprising yet comforting turn. Would falling for Allen betray the people she cares about, or would denying those feelings betray her heart?
