About The Fighting Fire

The Fighting Fire trilogy follows a set of San Francisco firefighters as each navigates a high-heat contemporary romance alongside the demands of the job. Burn for Me (2014) opens the series, followed by Melt for Him and Consumed by You (both 2015), each pairing a different firefighter with a woman who challenges his guarded approach to relationships.

Written during Lauren Blakely's early run of interconnected contemporary romance trilogies, Fighting Fire established the workplace-adjacent, banter-heavy formula -- a demanding profession providing both the stakes and the meet-cute -- that recurs across much of her later catalog.
