Introducing Annabeth Albert’s Hotshots series: the emotions and intensity of Chicago Fire with the raw, natural elements of Man vs. Wild.
Danger lurks everywhere for central Oregon’s fire crews, but the biggest risk of all might be losing their hearts …
Smokejumper Lincoln Reid is speechless to see Jacob Hartman among his squad’s new recruits. Linc had promised his late best friend he’d stay away from his little brother. And yet here Jacob is, and almost instantly, the same temptation Linc has always felt around him is causing way too many problems.
Jacob gets everyone’s concerns, but he has waited years for his shot at joining the elite smoke jumping team, hoping to honor his brother’s memory. He’s ready to tackle any challenge Linc throws his way and senses the chemistry between them—chemistry Linc insists on ignoring—is still alive and kicking. This time, Jacob is determined to get what he wants.
Close quarters and high stakes make it difficult for Linc to keep his resolve, let alone do so while also making sure the rookie’s safe. But the closer they get, the more Linc’s plan to leave at the end of the season risks him breaking another promise: the one his heart wants to make to Jacob.
