Synopsis

Two fierce leaders. A city in turmoil. Will their love rise from the ashes?

Fire and desire collide in this scorching enemies-to-lovers Sapphic romance from Phoenix Ridge.

Legendary Fire Chief Becky Thompson has faced down raging infernos—but nothing prepared her for Dr. Lucinda Everett. When the brilliant trauma surgeon from London rolls into Phoenix Ridge with bold ideas and a no-nonsense attitude, their fiery clash is instant. As the town's emergency services collide, so do Becky and Lucinda, locked in a battle of wills that ignites far more than just sparks.

What begins as professional tension soon turns into undeniable chemistry. Becky and Lucinda are forced to confront not only the dangers of their jobs, but the risks of falling for someone just as strong—and stubborn—as themselves.

Will they burn brightly together? Or will they burn out?

Contains mature themes.

[Arc Review] Thank you to Netgalley and the publishers for the Arc copy. All opinions are my own. I was really excited by the blurb for Phoenix Rising.
