A second chance born in fire…

Mallory Littman is the only human born child in an Elect family, but she's far from normal. She can call fire, control it, mold it. As an arson investigator, she has a life separate from the Elect. No reason to live in their compound, or to try to mend the rift with her estranged husband.

Until a case involving an Elect mate forces her to return to the home she fled three years ago. Her nursing background makes her the best choice to infiltrate The Stirling Institute. It'd be an easier job if her ex didn't insist on shadowing her every move—to keep her "safe".

It's not her body she's worried about. It's her heart.

Zach Littman made one major screw-up in his life. He let Mallory go. As long as she stayed away, he was willing to leave her be. But now she's back in his territory, and he has every intention of making up for his past mistakes.

If she lives long enough…

Warning: Take one sexy, alpha scientist, add in an estranged wife, and he gets very creative winning her back. Contains make-up sex hot enough to singe, a little light bondage, a dangerous undercover mission, and a heroine who doesn't quite breathe fire.
