One morning, people simply started burning. No warning. No mercy. They called it SHC—Spontaneous Human Combustion—and it turned cities into graveyards overnight.

Now, in the scorched remnants of Colorado, two women fight to stay alive. Rory carries the guilt of her mother’s death; Dante still hears the echoes of her father’s final scream. Scarred by tragedy yet bound by survival, they find each other in the ashes—and something rare sparks between them.

But in a world where fire can erupt from within and humanity has turned savage, love may be the most dangerous force of all. Together, Rory and Dante must fight starvation, violent survivors, and the fear that the same fate could claim them at any moment.

Brought to life by the powerful performances of Tara Sandoval and Avery Sandoval, this haunting post-apocalyptic romance will grip you from the first burning moment to the last ember. Their vivid, emotional narration captures both the raw terror and fragile tenderness of a love struggling to survive in a world that incinerates everything it touches.

Will they endure the flames—or be consumed by them?
