He’s home to shed his destructive past. She’s back to make him atone for it.

Arson. Secrets. Betrayal.

And when a series of deliberate fires injures an old friend, he’s forced to stay until the arsonist is caught.

For Mel and Ross the sparks fly in more ways than one. She despises how he’s made his money, and she’s stirring up trouble for both of them. She also unearthing secrets best left alone.

But as things heat up between them, Kentucky burns. Mounting evidence points to Mel, and Ross discovers she may have a reason to commit arson.

“If you’re looking for the next book you just can’t put down this is it. Smoke & Secrets isn’t just a great romance, it is equally as great a mystery with a plot that is eerily relevant in today’s world.” 5 star review
