Flashpoint Nights by Penny Fox

When loyalty becomes a cage, love becomes the key.

JJ
I’ve spent years holding on to a man who barely held my hand.
I keep hoping my loyalty will mean something—that maybe one day, he’ll choose me.
But when I meet Miles, that loyalty starts to fray.
He’s warm where my husband is cold. Open where he’s guarded. And for the first time in years, I feel seen.

Miles
I didn’t expect him—this quiet, guarded firefighter with eyes full of sadness and a heart too full of love for someone who doesn’t deserve it.
He’s killing himself to save something that died a long time ago.
And as much as I hate how he’s hurting me in the process, I can’t seem to pull away.
Because some love burns quietly.
And some will consume you.
