There's an arsonist in the city, and he means business. But Captain Nick Calhoun, a fourth-generation firefighter, can't seem to keep his mind on the game. He's too busy trying to drink away a bad memory. When his behavior puts his department-and his men-in jeopardy, the fire chief has no choice but to give him an ultimatum: work with a co-captain until he can regain control, or lose his job. When Nick agrees, he is ready for anything but Danni O'Brien. Danni is a female firefighter, and the most beautiful woman Nick has ever laid eyes on. There's something about her that Nick is instantly drawn to, and he wants to get closer. But Danni is hiding a dark secret of her own; a secret that forces her to keep Nick-and all men-at bay. As the sparks between them fly, a fire hits close to home, and they are forced to work against time to try and stop a madman. When tensions smolder, can Nick and Danni let go of their pasts long enough to stop the destruction? Or will they crash and burn in the fire of their own memories?
