HEAT. Small Town Sizzle, #1.5

One unforgettable summer. One devastating goodbye. One last chance to set things right. Seven years ago, nurse practitioner Darcy Ryan fell hard for rising football star Jackson Carmichael-only to have him walk away without warning, breaking her heart. Now he's back in Florida, and fate throws them together on the planning committee for a holiday gala. She's still nursing old wounds and guarding her heart, but Jackson's determined to prove he's not the same man who left. As old sparks reignite and secrets come to light, Darcy must decide if the boy who broke her can ever become the man who heals her.
Heat is a steamy, emotional second-chance holiday romance that blends football, forgiveness, and all the feels under the mistletoe.
