What We Keep

Heartfire Falls, Book 1

By: J.H. Croix

Narrated by: Austin Rising, Sofia Willingham

When the grumpy firefighter falls for the sunshine girl who turns his world upside down . . .

Elsa Whitney walks into my life like she owns the sun, all warmth and light, and shatters the quiet I've been clinging to. Not that I can blame her. She's impossible to ignore. And somehow, I'm the idiot who offered her a place to stay.

Brilliant move.

I’ve got enough on my plate—raising my son, rebuilding my family's resort, and trying to keep the pieces of my family together. The last thing I need is a distraction, especially one as tempting as Elsa.

Too bad my family is already smitten. Worse? They swear I'm less of a grouch with her around. They're not wrong.

Because the truth is, I don't just want her in my house—I want her in my life, in my bed, in every moment I can steal. And once I finally give in? There's no turning back.

Contains mature themes.
