Burn by Stephanie Rowe

Book 4 in the Alaska Heat series. Contemporary Romantic suspense.
Can be read as a stand-alone. Previous events and characters are mentioned in this book so it might feel like you want to know their stories or more about an event. I have not read the previous books and had no problem following the story. I do want to go backwards and read the previous books in the series after reading this.

Fast paced, engrossing and a thrilling story. Romantic and inspiring.
The heroine has had a lot of trauma in her past. She’s scared but strong enough to overcome those events and grow and be comfortable in trusting friends.

Excerpt:
“Protectiveness surged through him, a fierce need to keep her safe, to free her spirit to soar again.
A smile flickered across her face. "You look so intense right now."
"I've decided to keep you safe." He hadn't meant to say it, and he sure as hell hadn't intended to say it like he was staking a caveman claim on her well-being, but that's what came out.
She stared at him, then suddenly, a smile flooded her face, lighting up her eyes with a sparkle that seemed to reach right into his core and rip all his shields away. "Thank you for saying that. I have the same goal for myself.”
