Anne Ashburn has spent her life in the shadow of her family. Anne is a
good firefighter, however, when your father is a dead hero and your
brother is the chief, it's very hard to be anything but the chief's sister.
Sister is exactly what her crew calls her and though they respect her,
Anne always has to work harder and never stops trying to prove herself.
It also makes relationships difficult, and she does not want to be
regarded as just a woman, and sleeping with a member of the team
would make that all but impossible. That is why Danny Mcguire is
making her life hell. She wants him and once she has him, it's almost
impossible to stop... Until the night when they both almost die in a fire
and her career as a firefighter is over.
Now Anne must start a new life. As she tries to leave the old one
behind, she leaves Danny too. But a new case brings up old memories
and they are once again thrown together.

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of
the popular Black Dagger Brotherhood series comes a
brand-new novel about arson investigator, Anne Ashburn, who
is consumed by her troubled past, her family's scorched
legacy, and her current case: chasing a deadly
killer.
Anne Ashburn is a woman
consumed...
By her bitter family legacy, by her
scorched career as a firefighter, by her obsession with
department bad-boy Danny McGuire, and by a new case that
pits her against a fiery killer.
Strong-willed Anne
was fearless and loved the thrill of fighting fires, pushing
herself to be the best. But when one risky decision at a
warehouse fire changes her life forever, Anne must reinvent
not only her job, but her whole self.
Shattered and
demoralized, Anne finds her new career as an arson
investigator a pale substitute for the adrenaline-fueled
life she left behind. She doesn't believe she will ever
feel that same all-consuming passion for her job
again--until she encounters a string of suspicious fires
setting her beloved city ablaze.
Danny McGuire is a
premiere fireman, best in the county, but in the midst of a
personal meltdown. Danny is taking risks like never before
and seems to have a death wish until he teams up with Anne
to find the fire starter. But Danny may be more than a
distraction, and as Anne narrows in on her target, the
arsonist begins to target her.
From the creator of
the bestselling Black Dagger Brotherhood, get ready for a
new band of brothers. And a firestorm.
