Trying to ditch her past, Doris Macon is about to step into her favorite role: that of Dorienne Maçon, primped and perfect socialite. To complete the transformation, she needs to return to her hometown to get rid of the remaining vestiges of Doris Macon, town slut. But when the only man whod ever held her heart shows up in Quartzton, she inadvertently opens the door to her past.
Fourteen years earlier, Leo Savage, Romeo to Doriss Juliet, had abandoned and hurt her. Now, to be Dorienne Maçon, Doris must push away all that her heart once longed for, and that includes Leo. Wildfire fighter Leo, now a grown man, is driven to atone for his past, but finds he wants more than forgiveness from Doris. Like a forest fire, passion and love build to raging flames within, and Doris finds herself faced with either shoving her past back into a closet or embracing her true desire.
