All she's ever wanted is a place to call her own-a life that is wholly hers that no one can take away. She thought she finally had it, but with the strike of a single match, everything she worked so hard for is reduced to a pile of smoking ash. And she almost is too. Now she's being stalked by someone who's decided it's her time to die. The only thing standing in the path of her blazing death is sexy firefighter Holt Arkain. Katie's body might be safe with Holt... but her heart is another story. As the danger heats up, sparks fly and the only thing Katie knows for sure is that her whole life is about to go up in flames.
