Combust by Kitty Cox

When passions burn this hot, something’s going to combust.
Becoming a doctor of psychiatric medicine was supposed to make me a better man. I’d been brought here to be the logic in this group of insanity. Instead, I’m falling right back into my old habits and making the exact same mistakes.
But they feel so right.
I found “the ones” when I was sixteen. Both of them, although I had no idea that was even possible. Back then, I’d ruined it all. This is my second chance, but there’s a little complication. Violet’s sexy cowboy crashed into our beautiful dysfunction, and he needs us to pull it together – and fast.
Together, we burn hot, but if we want this mess to work – and I honestly believe it can – then all four of us have to be the perfect role models for one whole month. We need to be a little respectable – just long enough for him to get custody of his daughter.
Which means I need to keep my hands to myself.
If only it were that easy. Violet’s beautiful power, Ash’s uncontrolled passion, and Luke’s country charisma are making me weak in the knees. It’s so easy to forget that we need to keep this a secret. Sneaking out behind the barn or stealing kisses while cleaning the cabins isn’t going to be enough.
Perfect? Us? Not likely. We’re looking to get in trouble.
One risk becomes more. Soon enough, I make a mistake. Ash makes another. Violet? Not even she can keep this mess from crashing and burning, but this is love. It’s hot, messy, filled with passion, and unquenchable. All the things I have a weakness for, but it’s not enough if we can’t keep this family together.
Something has to give.
This time, it won’t be me.
