(2025)(A book in the Willowbrook Ridge Fire Rescue series)
A novel by Julia Stone
She’s all grown up, barely dressed, and completely off-limits. Doesn’t matter. She’s his now.
Knox:
The call says a broken doorknob and someone needing rescued—nothing new for this rundown building.
What I get is Alina Reyes—wrapped in nothing but a towel. Wet. Flushed. All grown up.
I haven’t seen her in over a decade—not since she was my best friend’s little sister.
Now? She’s temptation in bare skin and wide eyes. Off-limits.
She’s gorgeous. Untouched. Somehow, I’m the one standing in her doorway like fate handed her to me on a silver platter.
One look, and I know—I’m not walking away. I’ll fix whatever breaks in that apartment.
But I’m not leaving until she’s mine.
Alina:
All I wanted was a hot shower. What I got was trapped—door knob broken, soaking wet, and nothing to wear but a towel.
Then he shows up.
Knox Payne.
My brother’s best friend. The one who disappeared from my life years ago.
Now he’s back, older, broader, rougher—and staring at me like he wants to devour every inch of me.
He says he’ll fix anything I need.
I don’t think he means just the door.
With the way he growls my name, the way he looks at me like I’m already his…
I’m falling apart like the rest of my belongings, ready to be handled by him.
