Still Fire

Love, Lust, and the Fire They Knew Had Burned Out Two years ago, Ryan Carter made the "right" choice. He walked away from Amber Collins, went back to his wife, tried to be the good man… and lost everything anyway. Now he's back in Alabama on contract work at the company where it all started, trying to keep his head down and do his job. Then Amber calls him to her office. She's not the same woman he left behind. She's sharper, higher up the ladder, and still beautiful enough to ruin his focus in a single look. Their history is complicated, messy, and violently unfinished… and the second they're in the same room again, the chemistry snaps back to life like it never cooled. But Amber has a deadline. In three weeks, she's leaving the U.S. for a major promotion overseas. Spain. A fresh start she built brick by brick to escape the exact pattern Ryan dragged her into the last time. Ryan should let her go. Instead, he does the one thing he never did before: he fights for her, with a plan big enough to change both their lives. Still Fire is a second-chance romance packed with sharp banter, intimacy, and real emotional fallout, where love doesn't arrive clean. It arrives late, loud, and determined. Ryan and Amber have to figure out whether this time they're building something real… or just burning down what's left.
