Rekindle the Flame by Kate MeaderMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Three and a half stars.
Prequel novella to the Hot in Chicago series.
Beck Rivera and Darcy Cochrane had a romance as teens. He was the Puerto Rican son of a gangbanger fostered by firefighter Sean Dempsey, full of rage and violence. She was the heiress to millions. He broke their romance off and she fled Chicago heartbroken. Now she's back to look after her grandmother and they run into each other again in Dempsey's bar.
Beck's rejection was a pivotal moment in Darcy's life and she used it to brace herself against her father's controlling behaviour to forge a new life for herself, very different to that of the society princess Beck remembers. She doesn't want to go back but one glance is enough to confirm she never stopped loving Beck.
Fairly typical second-chance wrong-side-of-the-tracks romance complete with controlling father and curmudgeonly gran.
