Inferno at Red Mesa

The valley is drying up, and Eden Mercer is holding on by a thread. As the owner of the Red Mesa ranch, she's fighting a brutal drought and the predatory reach of land speculators. But the greatest threat to her composure isn't the heat-it's the return of Wade Ashby.

Four years ago, Wade walked away from Red Mesa and Eden's heart without a word. Now he's back, tasked with inspecting the very creek that keeps her legacy alive. As they clash over water rights and old wounds, the friction between them sparks a fire more dangerous than the one threatening the horizon.

When a devastating wildfire rushes toward their borders, Eden and Wade must choose between the pride that divided them and the partnership that could save them both. Amidst emergency foalings and town hall betrayals, they discover that some bonds, like the red earth of the mesa, only harden under pressure.

H. Thorne delivers a sweeping Western saga of grit and desire, proving that even the most parched ground can bloom when the right heart returns home. Can Eden trust the man who left her, or will the secrets he brought back burn everything to the ground?
