This is an alternate cover edition - ASIN: B012U0OTQS Walking through fire will either burn them...or forge a bond that will last a lifetime. All work and no play has left hunky firefighter Cole Castillo's poetic soul floundering. Contrary to his meddling sister's fairy-tale wishes, romance is the last thing he deserves, and a week-long getaway at a luxurious mountain resort won't atone for the grievous mistake that haunts him. So he's ready to bail...until he finds a sexy little number jumping on the bed in his assigned suite. Free-spirited school teacher Ivy Bradford has issues—parent issues, phobia issues, work issues—but one look at her sexy, tormented roommate, and those problems fade to black. To get him to stay for the week, Ivy poses a bet that Cole can't resist. But bratwurst eating and beer drinking aren't the only things that will challenge the delicate bond they forge during the week. When obligations from Cole's past come a'knocking, will their steamy connection withstand the heat or go up in flames? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~The Noble Pass Affaire series includes five, stand-alone books that can be read in any order. Each author picked a different month for their couple to stir up mayhem, fun, and lovin' at a gorgeous mountain resort. So, pick a month, y'all, and get ready to FLIRT! ~ The Chick Swagger Chicks FLIRTING WITH FIRE by Misty Dietz (September) FLIRTING WITH DISASTER by Josie Matthews (October) FLIRTING WITH SIN by Naima Simone (November) FLIRTING WITH FATE by Jerrie Alexander (December) FLIRTING WITH THE DEVIL by Kym Roberts (January)

World renowned geoarcheologist Jackson Whiteside has come home to Colorado to care for his grandmother and teach at CSU…not to rekindle the passionate, but doomed love affair with gramma’s high-spirited neighbor whose memory has haunted him half-way across the globe. But the moment he sees his feisty, melodramatic ex, his cortisol levels spike. And he damn well knows he’s about to unearth more layers of their relationship…whether his neurotransmitters like it or not. If there’s one thing dancer and dispatch operator Mya Castillo can do well, it’s Tango. But dancing with her feet is one thing...dancing with her heart is another. Especially when she has no choice but to accept her ex—the world’s most unintentionally sexy professor—as her stand-in partner for the biggest performance of her life. Jack’s two-year scientific immersion has kept a tight lid on his dangerous right-brained proclivities, but his irritatingly illogical gut is telling him the attack on Mya’s dance partner jeopardizes more than just her dance studio. It bodes evil toward the woman he still loves beyond reason, so this is one dance he won’t sit out.
