Kiss Me Hero
(2026)(The seventh book in the Thunder Valley Fire and Rescue series)
A novel by Callie Embers
Aiden doesn't say much. He's quietest man on the crew but a damn good firefighter.
Harper notices that he checks if she's eaten. That he fixed the funeral flowers when the arrangement was wrong. That he monitors her coffee through the crew so she won't know he's doing it.
He was in love with her before the grief. He just got better at hiding it when she needed a friend more than romance.
Harper isn't ready. She's barely holding it together and she knows it. The last thing she needs is to fall for the man who's been holding her up—because what if she ruins the friendship? She can't risk losing him.
Fair warning: Thunder Valley has dangerously hot firefighters, an unrealistic number of emergencies, and a small town that will absolutely be in your business. Come stay awhile.
