Maya and Dean are working together now that she has returned to the Ridgemont Fire Department. They both have feelings for each other but since Daniel is her brother and his best friend, this temptation should be forbidden; completely off limits. As the tension between them increases, controlling their feelings is dwindling away until it’s too strong to ignore. Can they keep their relationship a secret or will her brother find out? Will they have a HEA? Entertaining steamy small-town instalove story. Highly recommend.

"My Off-Limits Firefighter" is an excellent addition to the Ridgemont: Fire Department series. I loved this firefighter, best friend’s sister, short read. This series continues to well-crafted with this latest installment being no different. The characters are relatable and “sell” their journey. Dean and Maya have known each other for years though her brother, but when she moves back to town, they cannot deny the spark and connection they have with one another. They make a compelling couple with friendship, spice, and dedication to jobs and family/found family they both love. I highly recommend "My Off-Limits Firefighter".

This is the 4th book in the Ridgemont: Fire Department series.
Dean is Maya's brother best friend but since the day he met her, he has felt attracted to her in silence. Now that she is back to the small town and will be working by his side as an EMT, they will have a chance to explore their attraction.

A great age gap/off limits/close proximity romance that brings two people with high tension professions into a heartfelt steamy relationship that will center them both and give them a chance for a HEA.

“My Off-Limits Firefighter” by Lana Bloom
-This short, sweet, and steamy small-town romance delivers plenty of chemistry, tension, and heart. I received a free copy and am voluntarily sharing my honest thoughts.
Dean Foster and Maya Brooks make a lovable couple, and their forbidden connection keeps the story entertaining from start to finish.
The friendship, family bonds, and firefighter setting add warmth and charm, making this a fun and satisfying quick read that I recommend.

He’s a firefighter she’s an EMT and they work together. His best friends sister and younger, he should keep away. Moving story with danger, close knit company and undeniable attraction. Very happy ending.
