description: Sometimes to control a fire you have to start one. A string of arsons has Detective Marissa Cortez willing to pair up with an old flame in order to find the firebug. Ignoring the rekindled chemistry proves more difficult than she imagined. She’s been burned too many times in the past to dare to hope. Seasoned fireman, Dave Metcalf, has a sea of regrets. With a new lease on life and a chance run-in, he has no intention of letting Marissa go again. No matter what obstacles flare up. Fighting a battle she can’t win, his ex-wife drops their son off for good. Metcalf will have to prove the two of them are better with Marissa than without her. As the fires grow more dangerous, Metcalf and Marissa will have to work together to find the culprit and end the wave of destruction sweeping Lakeridge.
