Steele

He's used to putting out fires, not starting them.

Firefighter Blake Steele is living day-to-day, desperately trying to escape the guilt of his haunted past. He doesn't deserve love after what he did, but when the gorgeous Mary Franks moves in next-door, the conflict between what Steele believes in his head and what he feels in his heart just adds fuel to the fire.

For Mary, living next door to a firefighter should be comforting, except her handsome new neighbor insists on making a nuisance of himself by helping her—with everything. And though she can't deny her attraction, love isn't something Mary has time for. She has one goal: keeping her son safe, at any cost.

When Mary's abusive ex is granted parole and fights to get his son back, she relies on Steele for support. But as Steele uncovers all of Mary's secrets, he is forced to face his own troubled past before both of their lives go up in flames…
