Not Him (Firebrook Valley Book 2)

About this book

In the heart of Firebrook Valley, a thirty-year feud between two powerful families threatens to destroy everything in its path. Nora Burke returns home to navigate a storm of family drama, finding herself caught between two brothers and a legacy of bad blood. While her father expects her to align with his interests, Nora is harboring a secret: she is falling for the one man who has been her silent guardian since childhood—Evan Holliston. Evan is nomadic, jaded, and deeply conflicted. He knows he should stay away from Nora, especially since she is currently entangled with his own brother. He struggles to suppress his growing desire, convinced that his inevitable departure will only bring her pain. Yet, as the tension between their fathers reaches a boiling point, Evan finds it impossible to remain a bystander. This high-stakes, slow-burn romance captures the agony of loving someone who feels off-limits. With the pressure of a small-town rivalry closing in, Nora must convince Evan to look past their families’ history and the chaos surrounding them before he disappears once again. Will they choose to defy their legacies, or will the fires of Firebrook Valley consume their chance at happiness?
