Fifteen years. One rule. Never fall for his own crew. Captain Callum Rhodes has run Station 6 the same way since the fire that took his husband: love the crew like family, but never in love. He already buried one man he sent into the smoke. He won't do it twice. Then Gabe Delgado transfers in — quick-mouthed, reckless, and running from a rookie he couldn't save — and charges into a burning boardwalk shop on his very first shift. No backup. No fear. Nothing left to lose. And Callum breaks his one rule in front of the entire crew to haul him back out. What starts as forced proximity — same firehouse, same twenty-four-hour shifts, same desperate fight to keep the county from shutting Cutter Cove down — turns into something neither man is brave enough to name. A grumpy captain who's forgotten how to want. A sunshine lieutenant who's forgotten how to stay. And a coastline that keeps trying to take them both, from fire to rip current to the storm bearing down on the cove. Falling is easy. Staying is the part that could get you killed. The Rule He Broke is a slow-burn, grumpy-sunshine M/M firefighter romance with hurt/comfort, a found-family crew you'll want to move in with, explicit heat, and a guaranteed happy ending. Book 1 of The Cutter Cove Crew — every book a complete standalone. [Read More]

He says I'm his light. But loving him feels like drowning in shadows. At UC Wisteria, I'm supposed to be chasing my future: books, scholarship, and a life I've fought tooth and nail to earn. But instead, I'm being chased by Branwen Atthill, the campus hockey star with sharp edges, hidden scars, and ice-blue eyes that track my every move like I belong to him. When his obsession transforms into something that looks like love, I fall headfirst into the dark fairytale I always craved—until I start losing myself in its twisted pages. Branwen is dangerous. Possessive. Beautiful in ways that make me forget to breathe. When the violence starts, I convince myself I can fix him. That if I love him hard enough, my light will chase away his darkness. But as secrets unravel and the campus grows more dangerous, I'm forced to confront the question I've been too terrified to ask: if I survive loving him, will I still recognize the girl I was before he consumed me? He's everything I was warned about, and the only boy I've ever wanted to burn for.
