School teacher Chera James wants only one thing from rugged forester Kade Morgan: permission to explore the acres of wilderness he owns. Walking the pristine land that holds her own family's roots stills the restlessness that has long consumed her, but it also holds the key to grant funding that can mean a huge difference to her professionally. Kade is all man...fiercely independent, and willing to sacrifice everything-even his life-to protect his mountain. Danger lurks everywhere-and Kade realizes they're not alone in the woods...someone else is there, watching them. It's life or death-can he trust Chera? Or is she part of the set-up to take everything he's worked so hard to build? Every moment Chera spends with Kade makes her blood race and her heart beat like a wild drum. But trust doesn't come easy. Kade wants the truth, but Chera makes him forget the rules of survival he's always followed. Now that she's come into his life, will they both be consumed by SUMMER FLAMES?
