Wildfire Season

Some fires can't be contained. Forest ranger Mara Delacroix has spent six years learning the rhythms of the Helena National Forest - its dangers, its secrets, and exactly which fires to walk toward and which to run from. She's never had trouble telling the difference. Until Cole Raines shows up. A hotshot incident commander haunted by a tragedy that cost him three of his crew, Cole has rebuilt everything: his team, his protocols, his reason for getting up in the morning. The one thing he hasn't rebuilt is any ability to stay. His life moves from fire to fire, season to season, and that's always been enough. When a wildfire on the northern ridge throws them together, Mara and Cole discover something harder to outrun than any blaze - a slow-burn pull that survives distance, deployments, and every rational reason to walk away. But learning to move toward something, instead of away from it, means confronting the things both of them have been carefully not wanting. Set against the breathtaking backcountry of Montana, Wildfire Season is a deeply romantic story about two people who are very good at their jobs and very bad at standing still - and what happens when standing still turns out to be the bravest thing either of them has ever done. Book One of the Helena Valley Series.
