About this listen

Fire. Flavor. Secrets buried deep.

Emilia Hart has poured everything into Firetrail Farm: her independence, her sweat, and every last dollar. Known for her rare and dangerously potent hot peppers, the land is her pride and only source of peace. But when a brooding chef with a short fuse shows up uninvited, claiming a deal with her missing cousin, her quiet life ignites in more ways than one.

Rafe Moreno has one shot left to save his career, and it starts with Emilia’s peppers. The Ember House is betting on him to deliver a breakout menu, and failure isn’t an option. But Emilia’s stubborn streak proves just as fiery as her crops, and getting her to agree is harder than taming a flame.

As tensions simmer into attraction, strange sabotage threatens both the farm and the kitchen. When a buried secret comes to light that could destroy everything Emilia thought she knew, they’ll have to decide if trust can grow where betrayal once took root.

In a world where the heat is constant and the stakes keep rising, love might be the one thing worth risking it all.
