WAITING FOR YOU ( McKinney/Walker Series #5 )
When ER nurse Nora Sellers is hurt in a hospital scuffle, firefighter Zach Walker blames himself. Blaming himself is nothing new. He’s been blaming himself for years for the trauma his baby sister endured as a teenager. Though with his happy–go–lucky attitude no one would know it. He’s good at his job, he’s a good brother, and a good friend, but Zach decided long ago he wasn’t husband and father material.
Even so, when Zach learns Nora is a single mother with a house that needs his help, he can’t walk away. After a few days with Nora and her ten month old son, he knows he doesn’t want to.
But Nora’s wary. She learned at a young age that the only person she can count on is herself. Now with a baby, a job, and a fixer–upper house, the last thing Nora wants is a sexy firefighter, making her heart flutter. But Zach is more than what he seems, and the more she gets to know him the harder he is to resist.
She’s been brave all her life. Can she be brave one more time and take a chance of a lifetime with her heart?
ZACH WALKER
ONE OF MY FAVORITE SCENES *tears*
She was just about to turn and leave when she felt Zach behind her. He stood
quietly, looking down at Will, which ratcheted up the feelings swirling inside her
for this man.
She watched, barely breathing, as he reached out to touch Will’s small head.
His hand looked enormous next to Will’s as it moved in slow, gentle strokes over
his forehead then up and over the wisps of dark baby hair.
“My mom used to rub my head like this,” he said after a moment. “So I had
good dreams. But I don’t know, babies probably don’t have bad dreams.”

Claudia Connor is one of my top 5 and favorite authors. I have read and re-read all of her books a few times already. So I had some expectations for this but THAT WERE MET & SOME!
Zach Walker was here and there in the previously published books. I always wondered about him and hoped he would get a story, when I found out he would IT WAS LIKE CHRISTMAS FOR ME! I will say that you can read this as a stand alone, although the previous books are equally freaking awesome that i'd definitely suggest reading from the beginning.
Zach Walker is the brother of Hannah, and a dedicated hard working firefighter lieutenant. Zach is tall, handsome and good with the ladies. He doesn't have to try hard due to his position and profession alone, helps. When Zach escorts a drunk-driver from the scene, he leaves for one second and everything happens.
Nora is a ER nurse that just moved there. Her job is new, new life is new. Being a mother for an almost one year old, she had her plate full. When the very same patient that came with with Zach attacks her, she not only keeps her cool but catches the eye of the sexy firefighter that came to her rescue.
What started off as a friendship and a kind gesture from Zach, seems to be turning into something that just seems natural. Sadly Zach harbors feelings and fear and so SO MUCH regret from his childhood, is it even possible to over-come that? Well, all i can say is that Nora may be an only child, but she knows how to be there for a person more than anything. With her own hang-up's about her father, she struggles daily to understand what is happening between Zach and her. Watch this beautiful story morph into a lot of fun, sexual tension, passion and love. Zach is strong and alpha but with a heart of gold and Nora, sweet Nora...she tries to be strong...on the outside but on the inside she may be more broken than anyone. Beautiful story, amazing writing and I want to say something else but I don't do spoilers so, gotta read this!
