    Summary

    Twenty years after the world fell apart, civilization is nothing but a ghost buried under snow and silence.
    You grew up inside the harsh walls of a FEDRA military school, trained to fight, to obey, and to survive.
    But freedom was something you could never stop dreaming about.

    One night, you run away from Boston, crossing a city of ruins-hungry and terrified-until you meet Tommy Miller, a kind man hardened by loss. Together, you travel through danger and emptiness until you reach a small settlement still under construction: Jackson.
    There, you meet Maria, and for the first time, you begin to believe that peace might exist.

    Years later, Jackson has become a safe place. You work in the stables, avoid patrols, and keep your distance from everyone... until Tommy's brother and a little girl arrive in Jackson: Joel Miller and Ellie Williams.

    Joel is broken in ways you understand too well. Between you, a connection begins to grow-quiet, fierce, and dangerous-something neither of you thought possible again.
    But when new threats rise outside the walls, you will be forced to face the ghosts you've tried to bury and the feelings you can no longer deny.

    Summary

    His nose brushed against hers as he took a deliberate step closer, his proximity overwhelming. He leaned in, his form practically enveloping hers. He exhaled softly, his voice a velvet whisper. "Beth," he began, his words laden with desire and longing. "Tell me..."

    Her voice emerged almost breathless as she responded, her whisper barely audible. "Tell you what?" The question slipped from her lips, tinged with curiosity. His eyes opened, and his left arm moved, supporting him against the shelves behind her. It created a cocoon around her, a protective haven that eased any trace of unease. In Edward's presence, she felt secure. He was her sanctuary.

    "Tell me to stop," he suggested, his tone heavy with a mixture of urgency and restraint. "Tell me you don't want this..."

    "What if I don't want to?" she countered, her voice barely above a whisper.

    Summary

    Joel Miller’s life has turned to ash—he's a year in a life after a ruined marriage, long work days at the fire station, and a four-year-old daughter who deserves better. He swears he doesn’t need help, but everyone else knows he’s drowning. Especially his brother and best friend.

    You—a teacher on summer break, broke, stubborn, and desperate enough to take anything. When Tommy recommends you a job, you figure it’s just another way to pay the bills. What you don’t expect is Joel—the same man who made your heart beat a million times faster. The same man who gave you everything, then left you with nothing.

    For him, you’re supposed to be the babysitter he happens to know. For you, he’s supposed to be just a paycheck with complicated feelings. But old hurts tangle with new sparks every time he looks at you. This feels dangerous, because it won’t just be your summer that burns.
