Bright Fire Novel

For half her life, Clara has lived under the strict control of her Aunt Carlota, who raised her after adoption. While Clara views Carlota as a second mother and desperately seeks her affection, her aunt sees her merely as an obedient tool to command, even dictating whom she must marry. Clara believes that complete compliance might eventually earn her aunt's love. Everything changes when she encounters Fuego del Mar, a rugged and handsome man who saves her life. For the first time, Clara feels an undeniable attraction and finds herself breaking the rules she has always followed. However, pursuing Fuego means defying Aunt Carlota and risking the relationship Clara has worked so hard to preserve. Now Clara faces an impossible choice: continue her life of obedience in hopes of gaining her aunt's love, or follow her heart toward Fuego and face the consequences of her aunt's disappointment.
