Her Firecracker
Laney Powell - 2019
Join the authors of Flirt Club in The Fireworks Series of stories that celebrate summertime, BBQs, and all things that end with a bang! Where will you be when the fireworks go off? Serena Nothing like being the only one standing at the altar to make you want to move somewhere new and start all over. That also means no more men - I'm going to be all business, all the time. The perfect opportunity comes to me via a friend - I love my Spar Island girls - and I end up going for a dream and buying my own bakery in Milltown, Colorado, just in time for the town's big fireworks celebration. And everything is great until he walks in. Nate I thought the fireworks show and the various fires were the hottest things I had to deal with after coming home to Milltown. That is until I met Serena, who just bought the bakery that's right down the street from the firehouse where I'm working. Calling her a distraction is an understatement. And her buttercream frosting isn't the only thing that melts in my mouth. It won't take much to light this fuse. #flirtclub #fireworksseries #Bighotbang #toohottohandle #HEA

Her Declaration of Independence
Poppy Parkes - 2019
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.
