Knight Ridge Fire & Rescue. He walks into fire. She walks away from wreckage. In Knight Ridge, neither of them can hide.
COLT MASTERSON is the fire captain everyone trusts.
Third generation. First through the door. The man who brings his crew home—except the one time he didn't. Three years ago, his partner died ninety seconds after Colt followed orders instead of his gut. Now he calculates every variable, controls every outcome, and never lets anyone close enough to become another ghost.
Then the new EMT steps off the ambulance, and his carefully constructed walls start to crack.
JESSE HART came to Knight Ridge to disappear.
In Denver, she trusted her captain—in the field and in her bed. When a call went wrong and a patient died, he threw her to the wolves to save himself. She lost her career, her reputation, and her faith in men who wear the uniform.
Six weeks in Knight Ridge. Boxes still packed. Exit strategy ready.
She wasn't planning to stay. She definitely wasn't planning to fall for another captain.
But Colt Masterson doesn't look at her like a liability. He looks at her like she's the fire he's been waiting to walk into.
Someone is setting fires in Knight Ridge.
Old buildings. Isolated properties. The kind of fires that look like accidents—until you know what to look for. When the department forces them apart for "professional optics," the separation costs critical minutes on every call.
And when Colt goes down in a collapsing structure, Jesse has a choice: follow orders and let him burn, or defy the chain of command and save the man she loves.
She's been thrown under the bus once. She won't stand outside and watch him die.
