When the Fire Settles

When she's assigned to Firehouse 51 as the newest paramedic, she's prepared for adrenaline, long nights, and the scars that come with the job. What she isn't prepared for is Kelly Severide - the brooding lieutenant with a reputation for running toward the heat and never letting anyone close enough to feel it.

She's got walls. He's got matches. And somewhere between smoke-filled shifts and quiet, stolen moments, the sparks turn into something neither of them expected.

But falling for someone like Kelly doesn't come without risk. Because loving a man who walks into flames for a living means learning how to live with the fear that one day... he might not walk back out.
