Ignite

Winnie MacAllister, a 22-year-old hopeless romantic, has sworn off men. Then she moves in next door to Dex, a grumpy firefighter and single dad whose two young daughters take to her right away. Their first meeting, a smoke alarm mishap, is more embarrassing than charming, but the attraction is hard to ignore.

Dex is twelve years older and insists the age gap makes them a bad idea, even as Winnie sets out to change his mind. When a chance at a job in another state arrives, both of them have to decide what they are willing to risk.

Ignite is a contemporary romance and the first book of Melanie Harlow's Cloverleigh Farms Next Generation sequence, published in November 2021.
