Burn With Me

BETRAYAL RIPPED US APART, BUT WE WERE ALWAYS DESTINED TO MEET AGAIN. Arrogant and a brat is how I would describe fourteen-year-old me until one night disaster and devastation took everything, including my family. I vowed I wouldn't stop until I found out who destroyed my life and made them pay. Nine years later I'm Violet Clarke the best fire investigator in the state of Florida. My focus has never waivered, not even with the emergence of a serial arsonist that barely lets me catch my breath before the next fire is lit. Or even when the all too sexy Asher West storms into my life with a presence that is all consuming. Will the ghosts of our pasts bring us closer together or burn us up in flames? If there were pictures in the dictionary then my family would've been beside the word toxic. The only semblance of safety I had was due to my brother Derek. He would step in and protect me even at the sake of his own soul. That was until I was forced to turn the only family I had left into the police. Nine years later I'm a captain of a busy firehouse and have purposely chosen to remain unattached to anyone by living a lifestyle that allows me to remain in control over every aspect of my life. That was until Violet Clarke decided to literally leap into my life and make me want things I never thought I would. But old demons and family have a way of sneaking back into your life when you least expect it, and this demon is looking for revenge.
