Tori Fox’s Burnout is an emotional, enemies to lovers, sexy contemporary romance written in K. Bromberg’s Everyday Heroes Worlds project.

I have one rule. No distractions.
I’ve been burned enough to not let anything get in the way of my dream.
And that is what I am here to do.
I am at my family’s vineyard ready to revive it back to life.
But no one told me they hired someone to do my job.
I should know better than to let Everett Taylor get to me.
I hate him.
No matter that he looks like sex on a stick.
Or volunteers as a firefighter.
Or acts like a saint to my great-grandmother.
I try to hold myself back. But with every minute I spend with him I just want to get closer.
But I know the heat between us will eventually turn to ash.
—
Distractions only.
That’s all I ever let myself have. Never a deeper connection.
Until I meet her.
Layla Jones despises me as much as I despise her.
She’s selfish and annoying.
I should ignore her.
But I can’t fight my attraction to her.
And our time together creates enough heat to light us ablaze.
But we only have the summer and I know this fire is going to burnout.

Layla returns home in hopes that can get her great grandfather and grandfather’s vineyard to be more successful than it was in the past. She even was as far as going to college to get her MBA and to be able to know how she can turn it around; her grandmother was hilarious. Everett is a part time firefighter as well as the new caregiver at the vineyard. The chemistry that these to have is unreal. The things that these to have gone though and helped heal one another were wonderful to read, it also had all the feels.
