About this listen

From New York Times Bestselling author Kristen Proby comes When We Burn, a single-dad, friends-to-lovers, small-town romance, and the first in the Blackwells of Montana series, set in Bitterroot Valley!

Bridger

I’m her safe place. I always have been. The torment that Dani Lexington went through at the hands of her father was something no child should have had to endure. But I was the lucky one she turned to. Our age difference and the fact that her brother was my best friend kept her off-limits, even though something was always there, lingering under the surface. But when she was old enough, she left Bitterroot Valley, and I was forced to move on with my life. I got married and had my little girl. Now, I’m a single dad, focused on my job as fire chief and making sure my daughter stays healthy after a mysterious illness has plagued her for the past year. But after Dani’s father dies, she returns to Bitterroot Valley and is now living across the street from my daughter and me. Dani’s no longer a child. No longer off limits. This time, I won’t let anything or anyone stop me from being her safe place again.

Dani

I’ve been in love with Bridger Blackwell for as long as I can remember. He’s a smoke show, kind, and gives the best hugs in the world. But best of all? He’s everything my sorry excuse for a father wasn’t. Now, I’m back in Bitterroot Valley, living across the street from Bridger and his adorable daughter. It doesn’t take long for all those old feelings to come rushing back, and every cell in my body knows that I belong with them. That they’re mine. Bridger’s arms are where I feel safest. They feel like home. I’m growing to depend on him, to truly love him and his daughter. But I have deep-rooted baggage, and Bridger’s past has decided to rear its ugly head. Will we survive this, or is our relationship doomed from the start?

Okay

Was hoping this was as good as the Wilds but was disappointed that a story line didn't get started until the other half of the book. Also having Bridger use the f--- word ten times in a sentence isn't necessary. Also the graphic sex every five minutes in the book also is not necessary to make a steamy book good. I hope the next book in the series has a little more of a story line. Always love these narrators.

LOVED!!!

Such an amazing, sweet book!!! And the filthy mouth on the MMC was 🔥🔥🔥🔥. No spoilers but I sobbed at the end, and I haven’t listened to a book in a very long time that has made me cry. I loved it!!

Swoony MMC

The plot is great. The MMC works hard to show the FMC how he feels about her & that he’s not going anywhere. I love that there isn’t a third act break up & the book didn’t need one. I keep using my credits for this authors books because she doesn’t use the lazy act 3 break up & still has enough story to tell without having to use one. If there is a book with one I haven’t read it yet. Both narrators were great. The character growth was great also.
