One high school prank gone wrong shouldn't define the rest of former foster child Carly Lohan's life. But setting fire to Caldera Canyon isn't something townsfolk will ever forget. As the last part of her final act of restitution, she's among the group of volunteers assigned to keep a prescribed burn of underbrush and grass from "running over the rim" into the ranches ringing the park.
Local rancher and volunteer firefighter Jeremiah McCord doesn't trust the reformed firebug anywhere near the canyon's controlled burn--not after she nearly ruined him in the past. Determined to keep her on a short rein, he's everywhere she is, watching over her.
However, his plan to keep her close backfires when he discovers the secrets of Carly's past and a vulnerability that strikes him to the core. His long-held anger and distrust burn away as they fall deeper and deeper into the flames.

Once upon a time, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author, Delilah Devlin, lived in South Texas at the intersection of two dry creeks, surrounded by sexy cowboys in Wranglers. These days, she's missing the wide-open skies and starry nights, but loving her dark forest in central Arkansas with its eccentric characters and isolation--the better to feed her hungry muse! To Delilah, the greatest sin is driving between the lines because it's comfortable and safe. Her personal journey has taken her through one war, many countries, cultures, jobs and relationships to bring her to the place she travels now--writing romantic novels that hold more than a kernel of autobiography and often share a common thread of self-discovery and transformation.
