Scorched Hearts: Phoenix Ridge Fire Department, Book 2

Firefighter Elle Rodriguez is used to walking into the line of fire, but nothing prepares her for the sudden, searing heat of seeing Dr. Maya Monroe again. Years after a devastating betrayal brought their relationship to a bitter end, the two women are forced back into each other’s orbits when Maya returns to the city as a trauma surgeon. For Elle, the sight of her former love is a painful reminder of the past, but the old attraction still burns just as bright. For Maya, the feelings are far more complicated. Haunted by the sting of Elle’s past infidelity, she harbors a deep-seated resentment that makes professional collaboration feel like an impossible battle. Yet, as a series of harrowing emergencies grips the city, the boundary between their personal history and life-or-death duty begins to blur. Thrust together on the front lines, Elle and Maya must navigate a treacherous landscape of professional pressure and unresolved heartbreak. As the city faces escalating tragedies, the pair is forced to confront the demons that tore them apart. In the shadows of the Phoenix Ridge Fire Department, can they move past the ashes of their history, or will the sparks between them be extinguished by the pain of yesterday?
