Second Alarm by Annie Carlisle

One firehouse. One buried secret. And a second chance that refuses to stay quiet.

Hanna Larsen comes back to Copper Ridge for family—not for the firefighter she never quite forgot.
Ten years ago, Hanna had a reckless, secret fling with Ty Brennan… her brother’s best friend. It burned hot, ended badly, and was never supposed to be spoken of again. Then she ran.
Now she’s the new EMT at Station 7.
Same shifts. Same calls. Same man who still looks at her like she never left.
Ty has spent a decade pretending he’s over Hanna. He’s lying—to himself most of all. But this time, he won’t be her secret. He wants real. Public. All in.
Hanna wants him too—but risking her relationship with her fiercely protective brother, her reputation, and her carefully rebuilt life might cost her everything.

Between dangerous calls, stolen moments, and a truth ready to explode, Hanna must decide if she’s brave enough to stop running… and finally choose the man she never stopped loving.

Second Alarm is a spicy, laugh-out-loud romantic comedy featuring brother’s best friend tension, second-chance love, secret history, and a firehouse romance that burns hotter the second time around.
