A new family life, and an unexpected connection

After becoming guardian to her siblings, the protagonist sets aside dating and romantic hopes to focus on their care. Griffin, described as gruff and reckless, unsettles that resolve; the two share a sense of brokenness that draws them together. Their developing relationship unfolds alongside a threat to the life she is building, placing family responsibility, desire, and personal safety in tension. The description frames the romance around the demands of sudden guardianship and the risks of letting someone new close.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in contemporary romance involving family caregiving and a new relationship.
  • Readers who enjoy romance premises where a couple’s connection develops amid an external threat.

Book overview

One night was all it took for everything to change.

From college student to guardian in a single breath.

My siblings became my world.

 

No time for date nights or romantic dreams.

I traded quiet weekends for sleepless nights.

Giving my all to make sure they were cared for.

 

But Griffin had a brokenness that called to me-one that mirrored my own.

Gruff and just a little bit reckless.

He was the last thing I needed. But everything I wanted.

 

Only someone isn't happy about this new life I'm building.

Deciding to set fire to everything I hold close.

And when the smoke clears, there might be only ashes left behind...
