The Blacksmith’s Heart by Aria Cole

He forged his love in secret; now it’s time to claim her heart…

Liam Grayson is a man of strength and scars—a rugged blacksmith who’s spent his life working with fire but has never felt the heat of love returned. Wounded in the war, he carries the scars of life with a heart full of secrets, resigned to his unrequited feelings for Callie Baker, the sunny yoga teacher who lights up Devil’s Peak with her smile. She’s everything he believes he could never have… until fate gives him a chance to prove her wrong.
When Callie’s yoga studio goes up in flames, leaving her dreams in ashes, she’s left with nowhere to turn. Nursing her heartbreak, she impulsively answers a mail-order bride ad seeking companionship. What she doesn’t expect is for the gruff, wounded hero of her childhood to walk through the door as her “date.”
Liam opens his home to Callie, offering her a safe place to rebuild her life—and maybe even a piece of his guarded heart. But just as their connection deepens, strange incidents plague Liam’s blacksmith shop, making them question if the fire at her studio was an accident—or something far more sinister.
As past promises and old wounds resurface, Callie and Liam must decide if love forged by fire can stand the test of time—and danger.
