In this #1 New York Times bestseller, Nora Roberts delves into the world of elite firefighters who thrive on danger and adrenaline—men and women who wouldn’t know how to live life if it wasn’t on the edge. Little else in life is as dangerous as fire jumping. But there’s also little else as thrilling—at least to Rowan Tripp. Being a Missoula smoke jumper is in Rowan’s blood: her father is a legend in the field. At this point, returning to the wilds of Montana for the season feels like coming home—even with reminders of the partner she lost last season still lingering in the air. One of the best of this year’s rookie crop, Gulliver Curry is a walking contradiction, a hotshot firefighter with a big vocabulary and a winter job at a kids’ arcade. And though Rowan, as a rule, doesn’t hook up with other smoke jumpers, Gull is convinced he can change her mind... But everything is thrown off balance when a dark presence lashes out against Rowan, looking to blame someone for last year’s tragedy. Rowan knows she can’t complicate things with Gull—any distractions in the air or on the ground could be lethal. But if she doesn’t find someone she can lean on when the heat gets intense, her life may go down in flames.

Sexy firefighter Logan Bailey is an expert at putting the wet stuff on the hot stuff-on and off duty. But he just did the unthinkable, and it wasn't trading in his tube socks. He slept with his nemesis. His mortal enemy. The crazy redhead he loves to hate. Cara Goulding. And no matter how much he wants to lie to himself, he has to admit, it was mind-blowing. Cara will not be tempted by the one night she spent with prince dickhead-even if her traitorous body remembers every earth-shattering moment. It was a mistake and she's stronger than that. She'll just keep avoiding him and pretend it didn't happen. But the feuding small town of Tilikum might not be big enough for the both of them. Avoiding each other isn't working. And with every moment they're forced to spend together, the sparks get hotter, the flames grow brighter, and the tension borders on unbearable. Until they both reach their breaking point and their fiery relationship explodes. Author's note: a sexy firefighter and the sassy redhead who drives him crazy. All the banter, delicious tension, a heartwarming family, and plenty of steam. Enemies to lovers is as hot as it gets and these two are FIRE.
