Fault Lines: A Grumpy Seismologist, A Reckless Filmmaker and the Rift Stripe Between Them

Some disasters can’t be measured on the Richter scale.

Dr. Everett “Rhett” Cole knows one thing for emotions are unpredictable, and optimism is a liability. Still reeling from a catastrophic forecasting mistake, the brooding seismologist is forced into a partnership with Piper Riley—a daring, infuriatingly cheerful documentary filmmaker chasing the perfect disaster shot. Their enemies-to-lovers romance is anything but subtle as sparks fly during a forced proximity road trip across California’s volatile fault lines.

What begins as a battle of wills soon spirals into a high-stakes, romantic suspense adventure when a series of escalating quakes traps them in a shattered town. As nature’s fury rips the earth apart, the grumpy scientist and his relentless sunshine must confront buried traumas, impossible decisions, and an undeniable, forbidden pull between them.

In this disaster romance novel brimming with danger, wit, and searing attraction, Rhett’s iron control and Piper’s reckless hope clash in the most treacherous terrain of all—their hearts. It’s a romance with natural disaster themes, an emotionally wounded hero romance, and a love story forged in the fault lines.
