Book Blurb:
He puts out fires for a living. She's the fire he didn't know he needed.Event planner Ember Harper arrives in Peachwood Grove for a much-needed escape — a chance to breathe, regroup, and help her best friend plan a local fundraiser. What she doesn't plan on is a rainstorm, a deer in the road, and ending up in the arms of the most devastatingly handsome firefighter in Georgia.
Captain Ryan McCallister has seen plenty of emergencies. None of them looked quite like her.
What starts as a rescue turns into something neither of them saw coming—a connection that feels less like coincidence and more like fate. But Ember's carrying more baggage than the suitcases he helped unpack, and staying means trusting someone again. That might be the scariest emergency she's ever faced.
Good thing she's got a firefighter in her corner.
Embers of Fate is a quick, swoony ride through small-town Georgia, where sparks fly fast and feelings burn even faster—the perfect read to devour in an afternoon.

Thoughts:
Ember (FMC) is on her way to help a friend in a small town plan an event when she ends up in a MVA, thankfully the handsome fire captain Ryan (off duty) saw the accident and was able to get her out of her vehicle and get her fast medical care.
The event that Ember has been asked to help with is the upcoming fire fighter fundraiser and this puts her in close proximity to Ryan, since this story is short everything happens quicker so it is insta lust/love and everything moves fast in a short period of time.
Ryan and Ember's romance even though it moved fast felt natural for the story, this was a cute and cozy small town romance with charming side characters and even had a bit of drama since Ember is in the middle of a legal battle over her business in the city with her shady business partner.
I would have liked to see more character development for both leads. But I did enjoy it for what it was the leads are likeable and I found myself hoping for a happily ever after for them but since Ember is in town for just a short time to help her friend could she make that huge move to a small town from her big city life? Or will their relationship be over before it ever really started?
The story also sets up the story line for the next book and I'm looking forward to checking out the next in the series.
The Narrators did a great job bringing this story to life Thank you to the Author and High Gravity ALC for this early listen copy!
