Midnight and Malice

Midnight and Malice is part of the Welcome to Kissing Springs Midnight Season. Tara, a driven 911 operator, has always kept her feelings for Levi, her older brother's best friend, hidden. But when a string of suspicious fires erupts across town, Tara finds herself working closely with Levi, the town's rugged arson inspector. As the flames of desire burn hotter between them, so does the danger. Levi is trapped in an engagement with a woman he doesn't love, haunted by doubts and growing feelings for Tara, the one woman he's sworn to protect, not pursue.
As the fires intensify and secrets come to light, Tara and Levi must navigate a web of deceit and danger, risking everything to expose the truth. In the end, they'll have to decide if they're willing to cross the line from friends to lovers.
