Vulcan Montgomery is a fire captain in the heart of New York City. He is no stranger to danger, and he faces it with unwavering courage every day. His life is a whirlwind of heart-pounding rescues and the heavy responsibility that comes with his role, leaving little room for romance.
Karina Reyes is an emergency medicine doctor, dedicated to mending broken bodies and calming uneasy spirits. Despite her nurturing nature, she carries the invisible scars of a past that makes her doubt whether she's truly worthy of love.
But then, life throws a curveball and brings them together in a surprising twist of fate. As Vulcan and Karina explore this new and unfamiliar connection, the boundaries between duty and desire begin to blur. What starts as a marriage of convenience slowly turns into a deep connection, going beyond just obligation. A slow-burning passion sparks between them, growing stronger and more intense, threatening to consume them both with its fiery heat.
