But when Blythe and Ethan disappear while Billie is visiting them in New York, the last thing Billie wants is to be mistaken for her sister, or be falsely accused of a crime Billie knows Blythe did not commit. So when Heath suggests they work together to find them, Billie agrees. But a life of luxury, personal shopping sprees, and private jets cannot hide the years of unresolved differences between sisters, nor the decades of lies that have left the Kheiron family divided. And even as Billie slowly falls for Heath, she knows that until they all settle their differences, they're just pawns in someone else's game of power - where some of them are more expendable than others.

It's too bad one of the men on my team keeps challenging my every move. Only, it's not a man.

***Note: There is no cheating in this story*** Interview with the author What makes the Big City Heat series special? This series is special to me for several reasons. I set out to write a firefighter romance series about an alpha chief who ran a tight ship, and Chance was born. While I was mulling through the story in my head, the character of Alexandria came along. I suddenly had a strong female heroine to keep him on his toes. More than anything I wanted the series to reflect real life situations that people sometimes find themselves in, while still keeping it an enjoyable read. At the same time, it’s full of action, suspense, and romance – the kinds of things that keep me turning the pages. What order should I read the books in? Big City Heat is a serial. To get the most out of your reading experience it's best to read them in the following order: • Light My Fire • I’m On Fire • Ring of Fire There may be more titles coming in the series depending on where the characters take me. Maybe Chance and Alexandria have more of their story to tell, or maybe one of the other characters in the station house will warrant a spin-off in the series. Why should I buy this book? If you love firemen and you’re looking for a romance with twists and turns, this is it. There’s action, drama, love, and the list keeps going.
