“Ye cannae keep me with ye day and night, ye monster! It isnae proper.”

“Ye didnae seem tae mind last night.”

Elara Lamont is a lass on a mission: find the man responsible for her parents' death in a fire and ruin him. Enjoying it whilst seducing him and getting locked up in his keep… was not part of the plan!

The last thing Kaden Stuart expects is for his tumble among the sheets with a scorchingly tempting woman to end up well, in a literal tumble. Facing Elara's burning accusations, Kaden is resolute to prove his innocence—which entails uncovering the real culprit together.

Yet, their sense of duty is not enough to extinguish their desire for one another.

The deeper they dig, the more secrets they unearth from the ashes, including that the one meant to burn in the fire was… Kaden. And someone will not stop until they succeed.
