A sizzling small-town romance where forced proximity turns up the heat between a stubborn chef and a protective firefighter.
Olivia Harper came to Anchor Bay for a fresh start-not a flirty distraction. After rebuilding her life, she has no time for complications, especially the kind that come with broad shoulders, a cocky grin, and a hero complex.
Jack Lawson knows how to keep his cool under pressure. As a firefighter, protecting people is second nature. But Olivia? She doesn't want rescuing, and she sure as hell doesn't want him getting too close. When a plumbing mishap lands him as her unexpected housemate, their battle of wills turns into something neither of them can ignore.
The problem? Olivia has spent years proving she doesn't need anyone, while Jack's instincts tell him to stand back before he wants something he can't have. But some flames refuse to die out...
A small town full of charm. A slow-burn romance packed with heat. A love story that proves the best things in life are worth the risk.
