Inflamed

Debra Martinez doesn't believe in happy endings. Even if she did, she knows she doesn't deserve one, not after betraying her best friend in the worst possible way. Eight years into single parenthood, her life is a grind of exhaustion in between spikes of fatigue-an endless struggle to make ends meet-until Sean Orr, Havre de Grace's newest firefighter, shows her and her son, Aidan, a new and beautiful kind of "normal."But the happiness can't last-not for Sean who is on the run from his past. When it catches up with him, will it bring Debra's fragile normality crashing down around her, or will she find the strength to define her own happy ending?
