My sister and Sean Leigh had been rivals for over ten years. Whenever they crossed paths, sparks would fly. Sean was the fire station chief, and she handled PR for the team. The only one they'd ever give in to was me. Everyone else just teased them about it. I was the one who kept them from tearing each other apart. But then, when I was six months pregnant, I was organizing Sean's emergency kit in the family quarters and stumbled upon a locked wooden box. When I pried it open, I found it stuffed with farewell letters he'd written before every mission. I picked up the top one, the handwriting still rushed, and my heart ached. But the moment I saw the first line, a chill ran through me. The salutation wasn't mine.
