She cost him his career. He's got no plans to give her a second chance.

Firefighting is everything for Penn Griffin—his job, his family, and his friends. When a hurricane roars toward San Amaro Island, he's called on a rescue and ends up face-to-face with Nadia, the gorgeous but frustrating woman he went on one interrupted date with months ago. Now, in one fell swoop, she's altered his life irrevocably.

Nadia Hamlin eats, sleeps, and breathes her career at her family's beachside hotel. As the storm approaches, she thinks nothing of making a last-minute stop at the hotel on the way out of town—until it's too late. Thanks to her careless decision, Penn's beloved career is over.

Nadia wants to make it up to him. Penn wants nothing to do with her or her well-intentioned "help." But the attraction that once sparked between them isn't easily extinguished, and soon Nadia wants more than her career—she wants a second chance with Penn. Can he find his way toward forgiveness and acceptance and a future with Nadia?

Up in Flames is a stand-alone novel with a happy ever after in the Island Fire series.
