Wild Embers

I swore I’d never come back to Evergreen Falls, Wyoming. But when I’m warned that if I don’t return, people will die—I don’t hesitate.

The plan is simple: slip in unnoticed, find the source of the threat, fix the problem, and disappear before anyone realizes I’m here. Evergreen Falls doesn’t need me. And I don’t need the memories buried in its snow.

But that plan shatters the second I’m arrested by Sheriff Walker Maddox—my dad’s best friend, my childhood protector…and the one man I’ve never been able to stay away from.

And he isn’t the only one.

They’ve always been off limits. That never stopped me from crossing lines I shouldn’t.

Santiago Ramirez—the reckless cowboy with a wicked smile

Levi Harding—the quiet town vet with a steady, grounding presence.

Men I grew up around. Men I trusted. Men I was never supposed to want.

Now they look at me like they see it too.

They make it harder to remember why I ever planned to leave.

When the danger shifts toward me, these three men—loyal, lethal, and completely off limits—refuse to let me face it alone. And the closer I get to them, the harder it is to pretend I don’t belong right here, between them.

Because Evergreen Falls is hiding something darker than old secrets and small-town gossip. Someone is hunting the town’s heroes…and exposing them for the monsters they really are.

And the deeper I dig, the clearer it becomes—these aren’t the acts of a deranged killer.

This is the past coming back to collect its debt.
