In the Path of the Flames
Sadie Hart

He Was the Only One Who Stayed.
I told myself I didn’t need saving
Then he walked into my life—inked, infuriating, and off-limits.
Aidan Reed was supposed to fix my barn and leave.
He wasn't supposed to make my dog like him, or break through the walls I built to survive.
He definitely wasn’t supposed to kiss me like the world was ending.
But in Maple Ridge, the world is ending—one ember at a time.
With wildfire on our doorstep and my past closing in like smoke, I can’t tell what’s more the fire outside… or the one he’s lit inside me.
Because when everything burned, he was the only one who stayed.
