He burned her once. She won’t light the same match twice.

Shapeshifting bounty hunter Camix lives by two rules: always trust her instincts, and never—ever—trust Finn, the firewielder who torched her heart two years ago. But when her crew accepts a contract that pits them against a creature born of nightmares, Camix is faced with an infuriating truth: only Finn’s flames can light the way.

Finn has spent years simmering in regret, carrying the weight of the mistake that cost him the only woman he ever loved. And Camix? She’s not the type to take betrayal quietly—she made him pay for what he did. The chance to work together again feels like a cruel miracle, but Finn knows second chances are more elusive than the evil they hunt.

Their shaky alliance might be the only thing standing between survival and ruin—yet it could just as easily shatter the last fragile remnants of their hearts.

Because some sparks linger in the ashes… and some loves burn hottest right before they explode.

Leena Kazak's Bound to Burn is part of Goblin Presents: A Valentine's Anthology, a mashup of five short and sweet Valentine's Day novellas—with a side of yearning and angst. Written to fit every romantic appetite, they're designed to be eaten like your favorite box of chocolates.
