Readers of spicy, high-heat contemporary romance with forbidden attraction and single parents will melt over this fiery love story.

Perfect for fans of firefighter and single-dad romance like The Au Pair Affair, found-family dynamics, and the hit TV shows Station 19 and Chicago Fire.

Rugged firefighter Riggs has made a career of withstanding the heat, but now the boss's daughter is his nanny . . . and it's all too hot to handle.

When Ryan Riggs discovers a forgettable one-night stand has left him with a four-year-old daughter he never knew existed, he becomes a single father overnight. Exhausted and fumbling through parenthood, he hires a younger, free-spirited live-in nanny. Relying on Lila isn't ideal, but he needs all the help he can get to manage the fires in his personal life.

Lila Morgan's eager to prove she can be independent. Maybe being a live-in nanny isn't the most glamorous, but it's a job-and it'll surely show her father she's capable of adulting.

How hard could it be?

Apparently, pretty hard.

Mainly because Lila's father is Riggs's boss-which complicates, well, everything. That promotion he wants? Made all the more difficult because Riggs is developing feelings for Lila, and having the hots for his new nanny is not on his career ladder. Plus, after getting burned in the past, Lila's sworn off all firefighters.

With so much at stake, neither of them can afford to cross professional lines . . . but as secrets and hidden rendezvous bring them ever-closer, it's only a matter of time before everything goes up in flames.
