Blazing Hearts Short Romance Series

He puts out fires for a living — she's the fire he didn't know he needed. Event planner Ember Harper arrives in Peachwood Grove for a much-needed escape, a chance to breathe, regroup, and help her best friend plan a local fundraiser. What she doesn't plan on is a rainstorm, a deer in the road, and ending up in the arms of the most devastatingly handsome firefighter in Georgia.

Captain Ryan McCallister has seen plenty of emergencies — none of them looked quite like her. What starts as a rescue turns into something neither of them saw coming, a connection that feels less like coincidence and more like fate. But Ember's carrying more baggage than the suitcases he helped unpack, and staying means trusting someone again. That might be the scariest emergency she's ever faced. Good thing she's got a firefighter in her corner.

Embers of Fate is the first book in the Blazing Hearts Short Romance Series by C. K. Darling, following the McCallister brothers as they each find their match in Peachwood Grove. Standalone, but better with the brothers.
