When a small-town firefighter falls for the arsonist's ex-wife, love becomes the most dangerous risk of all.

Fire Chief Calvin "Murph" Murphy came to Elken Grove, Georgia to rebuild his life—not to fall for the notorious arsonist's ex-wife. But innkeeper Moira Henley is being systematically destroyed by escalating attacks, forged permits, and a town convinced she was in on her husband's crimes.

Moira thought divorcing her criminal husband was the end of her troubles. Now someone's targeting her bed and breakfast with anonymous threats, fake online reviews, and suspicious fires. In a close-knit community where gossip spreads faster than wildfire, she's fighting to save both her business and her reputation—all while keeping everyone at arm's length to avoid their pity.

When Murph discovers the guarded divorcee is in real danger, everything protective in him refuses to walk away. But their forbidden attraction threatens his hard-won position as fire chief, while Moira risks losing everything she's worked to rebuild—including the walls she's built around her heart.

In a town where everyone knows your secrets and second chances are earned through fire, can their love survive the flames—or will it destroy them both?
