Studly firefighter Jamie Banner is looking for a change of pace in Milltown. When they meet, fireworks are guaranteed. The Fourth of July is my absolutely least favorite thing. An entire day dedicated to thundering explosions and crazy-making lights that drive my clients wild (well, wilder than they already are, given that they’re cats and dogs)? Thanks, but no. The only thing I like less than the Fourth is my ex, and good riddance to him. I gave him seven years of my life, and in the end he gave me an eyeful of his cheating ass in my bed with some brunette. Said he wasn’t ready for long term, that he needed something explosive. I hope the fact that I had a moving van and team at the house within the hour, moving his shit the hell out of there, was explosive enough for him. So sure, while I’m not exactly thrilled about this year’s fireworks show — the one that puts my town of Milltown, Colorado, on the map — I’m ready for something new. Something fresh. Something . . . well, something explosive. In a good way. This year, I’m celebrating the Fourth by making a fresh declaration of independence to bring me back to life after seven years of gathering dust on the arm of a guy who didn’t deserve me — or, hell, even want me. It’s time to focus on me. When firefighter Jamie Banner walks into my life, I know exactly what I’d like to do with him. And it’s not exactly ladylike. Happy 4th of July! Welcome to Milltown, Colorado, population 15,000, where the only things hotter than the annual fireworks show are the men in uniform and the women who want to light their fuses. Join the authors of Flirt Club in The Fireworks Series of stories that celebrate small-town summers, BBQs, and all things that end with a bang! Where will you be when the fireworks start?

    So, when members of my former sorority initiated a resolution pact for the new year, I jumped right on that. My resolution was to break out of the shackles of my boring and safe life and do something bold and daring. But I had no idea how to do that…until he came along. As luck would have it, Nathaniel Leeds, a brilliant research scientist, was looking for a temporary assistant to help him collect and document data. The job itself didn’t sound all that exciting until I learned that it would involve a road trip. And then I met my new boss. And Lord help me, my handsome, Brainiac boss made me hotter than the jungles of Costa Rica. If I can survive this road trip with my heart intact, I’m resolving never to make another resolution for as long as I live.

    Is that so bad?Maybe not, if I had at least asked for help.

    Ryan grew up hot. And his perfect kiss just saved my life.Teasing eyes. Tempting lips.

    Success, women, money. The name Walker Holcomb meant something. I was on top of the world. It was a damn long way to fall. My third album tanked, and I looked for answers in a whiskey bottle. I went from the top of every sexiest man list to the butt of every joke on late night. Only thing in worse shape than me is the family farm. Old place is as ramshackle and beat up as I am—another damned lost cause. Until I open my screen door one day and find her on my front porch. Luscious and fiery. Stubborn as hell. Irresistible. Nothing’s had me this fired up in a long time. She makes me crazy. I want to shout and cuss at her. I want to get my hands on that body. Part of me wants to throw her off my porch, tell her to keep walking till she crosses the property line. The rest of me wants to back her up against the rail and hike up her skirt. Even bloodshot eyes can see she’s just what I’ve been waiting for.

    Gold held my career—and my heart—in the palm of his hands. I wasn't a wild child. I kept my head down and focused on my job. My one teeny-tiny nod to rebellion? I never backed down from a dare. So when my sister challenged me to kiss the sexy stranger who’d been staring at me all night long, I marched right up to him and pulled him in for a long, slow kiss. And then he pulled me upstairs where he kissed me all over. One night, no last names. And when I woke up, he was gone. Two months later I came face-to-face with my new boss—billionaire mogul Patrick “Trick” Gold—and I was assaulted with the memory of his lips on my skin. Now, no one at work can know what we did. Or what we keep on doing ... over and over and over again. ********** Feeling a little blue? Flirt Club is tickled pink to bring you fourteen new hot and steamy short stories.
