Delaney Newell knows what it means to be powerless. Against the family who wouldn't support her. Against the man she loved who betrayed her. Against the gossips who won't let her forget it. But after years of struggling, she's finally getting her life together.
Sean Murphy has spent years fighting forest fires. The former hotshot turned forester knows the growth that can sprout from unfathomable destruction. That's what he sees in Delaney-someone who got leveled by life but didn't stop growing. He's spent the past several months watching the shy red-head blossom, and he really likes what he sees.
When Delaney is accused of a crime she didn't commit, everyone is willing to believe the worst of her. Everyone except Sean. The woman he knows couldn't possibly be behind the rash of fires that are keeping the volunteer fire department hopping. Someone is deliberately framing her. Will Delaney trust him enough to help her find the real culprit?
