Inhaltsangabe

What happens when two ice queens collide — and neither one melts first?
Shannon McAllister runs search and rescue in the Colorado mountains with iron discipline and zero tolerance for small talk. She hasn't let anyone close in five years. Not because she doesn't feel things — because she does, and that's worse. She's made herself untouchable. It's worked so far.
Tess Calder has been hired to decide whether Shannon's job should exist. She's the consultant nobody wants and everybody underestimates. Analytical, guarded, and so tightly wound she colour-codes her panty drawer, Tess doesn't do feelings. She does data. Data doesn't let you down, doesn't leave, and doesn't look at you the way Shannon McAllister looks at her when she thinks no one's watching.
Two women who've perfected the art of keeping everyone at arm's length. One six-month audit that puts them in each other's orbit — and neither of them is prepared for what happens when the distance stops working.
A wildfire tears through the mountains, and through every certainty they've clung to. Now Tess has a report to write that could end Shannon's career — or destroy her own. And Shannon has to decide what terrifies her more: losing her job or letting someone stay.
Meanwhile, Tess's mother Colette — part chaos agent, part unwanted life coach, and entirely without boundaries — has arrived uninvited, unpacked her crystals, discovered Tess's most private possession, and set her sights on a captivating eighty-three-year-old grandmother named Yaya. You'll either love her or want to lock her in a cupboard. Possibly both.

Wild Hearts is a slow-burn sapphic romance featuring:

• A fresh take on the double ice queen trope — two guarded women undoing each other
• Forced proximity and workplace tension with real professional stakes
• A wildfire rescue that changes everything
• Found family in a mountain SAR team
• A scene-stealing mother you'll argue about for days
• A dog called Kep who deserves his own book
• Steam that earns its slow burn
• All the feels. Bring tissues.

Wild Hearts is the third book in the Healing Hearts series and can be read as a standalone. HEA guaranteed.
