The Line of Fire

By A.J. Ranney

Book Overview

Romance novels promise that friends who secretly love each other get a happily ever after.

That's not my kind of luck.

My luck looks more like waking up in the back of an ambulance after being run off the road by a crazed arsonist. Or birds pooping in my hair, slipping half-naked in a bathtub, and needing my best friend to rescue me.

That best friend? My partner. Adam Ricktor.

The man I trust with my life and the only man I can't afford to lose.

So when Adam kisses me and admits he wants more than friendship, it terrifies me more than any fire or near-death experience ever has. Crossing that line could destroy both our personal and professional partnership.

But every glance lingers too long. Every touch sparks something dangerous. And resisting him feels impossible.

I've been in the line of fire before.
But risking my heart?

That might be the one thing that finally burns me.

Author's Note: The Line of Fire is a full length, small town romance featuring a tattooed firefighter and the girl he secretly wants more than friendship with. If you love friends to lovers, workplace romance, forced proximity with a touch of suspense then this book is for you
