Connor feels destined to live in the extreme, so he expects nothing more than drama when the latest annual game he plays with his brothers requires that he revisit part of his crazy past.
He's compelled to face Gabriela Miller—a girl whose heart he crushed in high school, and who'd probably slap him silly if she ever saw him again. But Connor feels a pull to her he can't deny. Besides, what he did to her—that was so long ago; she couldn't possibly still be holding a grudge, right?
Connor realizes he's usually a force of destruction but straps himself in for the ride, hoping that, instead of inflicting more damage, he can repair some part of their connection instead.

To Gabriela, Connor Wilde is like fire itself: entrancing and dangerous. She's been burned by Connor before; how many times does one need to stick one's hand in a fire to realize the damage it can cause?
When Connor pops up in her life again, she knows he's up to no good. At the very least, smoke is on the horizon, whether he means to start a fire or not.
Gabriela plans to fight Connor off for as long as she can, but if he finds his way in again, will she be left in ruins, like before?
