When love burns brighter than fear
Widow
Single-Mother
After losing my husband to the dangers of his first-responder career, I made myself a promise: never again would I open my heart to someone who risked everything for strangers. Needing a fresh start, my daughter Rosa and I escaped to the coastal haven of Midnight Cove with my sister, determined to build a life away from the knowing looks.
But fate has other plans.
There we meet Gunnar, a devastatingly handsome firefighter with gentle hands and a protective streak a mile wide. He sees straight through the walls Ive built around my heart and makes it his mission to show me that some risks are worth taking. With every stolen glance and tender touch, hes proving that the right man doesnt just heal your wounds, he sets your soul on fire.
I thought the best part of my life was behind me. Gunnar is about to show me its just beginning.
Sometimes the greatest rescue isnt from flames—its from a life half-lived.
