He runs into burning buildings for a living. She's the one fire he can't put out.
Fire Chief Jack Lockwood is done with love. The last woman he gave his heart to is serving life for murder. Since then he's kept his head down, his mouth shut, and every woman in Whisper Cove at arm's length.
Then he walks into Tess O'Malley's shop for a haircut.
Tess is a tattoo artist with blue-and-green hair, three dollars in the bank, and a talent for packing up and leaving town before anything can hurt her. One last chance keeps her in Whisper Cove: six months to bring the town's abandoned library back to life. On her first day in the drafty building, something in the dark whispers her name.
The ghost stories turn out to be the least of it. Someone has a key to her building. Someone is going through her drawers, throwing bricks through her windows, and leaving menacing warnings: PUT IT BACK. When the town's tow truck driver dies in a fire that was no accident, Jack realizes the danger closing in on Tess is real. And it's buried deeper in Whisper Cove's past than anyone wants to admit.
Tess has never stayed anywhere long enough to call it home. Jack has never told a woman he loves her. Out on the dark cove waters, somebody is digging up a secret this town swore to forget. They'll burn down everything Tess loves to keep it hidden.
BLAZE is book six in the steamy, heart-pounding Whisper Cove series, where one small town on the coast of Maine keeps its secrets close and fights for its own.
Don't miss DEFY, the explosive conclusion.
Genre: Romantic Suspense
