He's reckless. She's hiding behind a lie. They seem destined to be, but could easily crash and burn.
Dylan
His past made him notoriously reckless and, as a New York City fireman, that could prove fatal. After barely escaping a burning building with a victim, Autumn’s beautiful face was the last thing he expected to see, and their instant connection intrigued but terrified him.
Around her, he felt alive for the first time in over a decade. If he wanted to learn how to love again though, he’d have to let go of his past, and that was much easier said than done.
Autumn
She was still licking her wounds from her previous relationship when Dylan Hogan crashed into her life, doing things to her heart (and her body) that she never thought possible. He made her feel like the person she'd always wanted to be, though she feared he’d run if he knew the truth.
She had to let him go before her past destroyed them both, but she didn’t want to extinguish their fire. What he didn’t know couldn’t hurt him, right?
Dylan might be the savior that Autumn never knew she needed, but first she’ll have to save him from himself.
Find out if love conquers all in this sexy romance with a twist that'll take your breath away!

He'd never had a problem getting what he'd wanted...
Until her.
Ryan
As the baby of the family—and being blessed with heart-stopping good looks—Ryan Hogan was used to getting what he wanted, especially women, and his career as a New York City fireman only made him more of a chick magnet.
Until one day on the job changed everything. He found himself in a hospital bed, and his nurse captivated him, but she seemed to be the only woman to ever be impervious to his charm.
One thing to know about Ryan Hogan, though: He doesn't give up.
Zoe
Her job as an emergency room nurse provided more than enough excitement to keep her distracted from the anchor around her ankles. So when one of her patients, a sexy fireman, seems determined to make her his, she fights against her attraction with everything she's got. Because the last time she allowed a man to distract her, her life went up in flames.
She wouldn't make that mistake again. She left North Carolina for a fresh start in New York City, and that's what she was going to get.
One thing about the past, though: It always catches up.

He's exactly what she wants, and everything she can't have
Lana
She's dated her fair share of New York City firemen, but after having been burned one too many times, she swore she'd never date another one. Enter Jesse Hogan—tempting her to bend her rules for one night. He was just a volunteer fireman, that had to be a loophole, right?
Wrong.
He was also a lieutenant in the FDNY. A fireman twice over. So she told herself to forget about that feeling in her chest (and that mind-blowing orgasm) and move on before he bulldozed her heart. Easy, right?
Wrong.
Jesse
One nighters were his specialty. After meeting Lana though, he was left wanting more. Except she refused to date him. But he was determined to wear her down. His "let's be friends" routine seemed to be working. Great, right?
Wrong.
He discovered something that threatened to not only destroy his chances with the only woman to ever make him want to settle down, but also send his career up in smoke. He could keep that secret from getting out though, right?
Wrong.

"Kaye Kennedy has a gift for writing. This book drew me in from the very first page and didn’t let me go until the very end. I was engaged the whole time and honestly had a hard time putting it down to do the sensible thing and go to bed at a reasonable time. This book has it all. You get plenty of feels and it’s hot and sexy. Jesse is the perfect book boyfriend. He’s hot, sweet, reliable, and goes after what he wants. You won’t regret the purchase." - Amazon Reviewer
"Kaye Kennedy has a very relaxed writing style that sucks you in and doesn't let go. Her style is very engaging, and doesn't insult your intelligence. (Yes, she uses the occasional big word and expects you to know what it means!) I've read other books that made me feel like a high schooler wrote them. Not Ms Kennedy!! For that, I like her books. Because the stories are engaging, I love her books. You will not regret purchasing this series, trust me." - Amazon Reviewer
"From the beginning, you can feel the electricity coursing in the connection between Jesse and Lana. There is this thick sexual tension that vibrates off the pages. I was sucked into this book from page 1.

When fate forces these enemies to collide, what could possibly go wrong?
Jace
After having been burned by a woman in his past, fireman Jace Palmer avoided heartbreak at all costs and played the field as though it was his profession. One night, he accidentally called a hookup by the wrong name in the middle of...hooking up. He didn’t have the space in his life for that kind of drama, so he decided to move on, even though he’d actually liked her.
When he shows up for his best friend, Dylan Hogan’s wedding weekend a few months later, he discovers that life was delivering him a cruel twist of fate.
Britt
As a sex and dating writer for Contemporary Magazine, Britt has seen and heard it all. Her past had her convinced that true love was a Hollywood construct, so she kept her relationships casual, but she still had standards.
When she arrives at her best friend's wedding rehearsal and finds out that she’s walking down the aisle with a former hookup gone bad, she is less than thrilled. In an attempt to hold onto her dignity, Britt invites her celebrity crush, who she’d interviewed for the magazine earlier that day, to be her date—a move that only adds fuel to the fire.
While she’s worried about surviving a weekend with her enemy, fate has other plans. Plans that involve a happily ever after with the one person she’s determined to hate.
P.S. This is the fourth installment in the Burning for the Bravest Series and this book gives you a seat at the table for Dylan and Autumn’s wedding! Haven’t read Dylan’s and Autumn’s story? Start with Burning for More.
