Against the Fire

Once one of the ‘no-account Raines boys,’ Gabriel Raines has pulled himself out of poverty by his bootstraps to become a successful businessman — one who has become the target of revenge...

You can’t fight what you can’t see. And Gabriel Raines can’t be sure who’s setting the fires in his new real estate development. When two fires hit back-to-back, he knows it’s personal, but any number of competitors or ex-employees could be the arsonist.

The police suspect Angel Ramirez, a local teen who’s been in trouble before. But Lily Baker, a volunteer at the Family Abuse center, can’t believe the kid she’s been working with would go back to his delinquent ways.

Determined to convince Gabe that she’s right, Lily must get close to him and find out who’s putting their neighborhood in jeopardy. And as the arsonist’s flames continue to burn, Lily and Gabe find a heat developing between them. It might just turn into a full-fledged fire...if they can survive long enough.
