After leaving the Army, Zamantha Kessel longs to fulfill the dream she once shared with her late fiancé. Instead, she finds a blistering hot firefighter she can’t seem to stay away from. Getting involved with him could incinerate everything she believes in. Can she turn her back on a man who sets her heart ablaze? “Barney” is one step away from living in his truck after the IRS declared him dead. Thankfully, he still has his job, which puts a roof over his head. As luck would have it, living next door is a frustratingly sexy neighbor who is hot enough to scorch the earth yet cold enough to put him in a deep freeze. Can a man who’s supposed to put out fires light a controlled burn in her wounded soul? For the flames of desire to engulf them both, they have to breach the control line.

Verlene was born and raised in the south. Thanks to the military, she's traveled the US, but now calls Sin City home. Self proclaimed zombie apocalypse enthusiast, word porn peddler, human canvas, Manowarrior, serial grammar killer, rabid Bama fan, accidental dust bunny population specialist, and abuser of the word f*ck. She's thrown live grenades, survived the tear gas chamber and forced road marches, but still thinks writing and publishing are more brutal. Lemmy said it best, "Born to lose. Live to win."
