Chasing criminals, catching feelings.
When Alex Ross, a cop bruised by love, lands in New York's Homicide Squad, he's hoping for a fresh start. What he gets instead is Ramon Braxton: ex-SEAL, single dad, and the kind of man who might make Alex believe in second chances.
Ramon's life is a high-octane mix of chasing bad guys and raising the best mistake he ever made—his son. He's got his hands full and definitely doesn't need a partner, especially one who's as infuriatingly attractive as Alex. But in the city that never sleeps, fate has other plans.
Thrown together in the gritty underbelly of New York, where crime families teeter on the edge of war, Alex and Ramon find themselves in a partnership that blurs lines between professional and personal. As they navigate this complex dance, they discover that the most dangerous battles often require a partner-in-crime, in more ways than one.
Bring the Fire is not just a story about catching bad guys; it's about finding love in the most unexpected places. It's a tale where slow burns lead to explosive connections, and where being a single dad and a crime fighter can surprisingly lead to romance.
