Looking for the Fire
a Firehawks romance story
by M. L. Buchman

Tess Weaver had been waiting for this moment for months. Like a racehorse out of the gate she’d counted down; seasons, weeks, days, hours…
She hadn’t slept a wink last night, caught in some half-waking nightmare that the freedom that beckoned from so close by would be torn away.
But the morning shone bright with that crystalline blue that could only exist above the Lolo National Forest which thrived along the Idaho-Montana border. The snows had released their stranglehold on the Selway-Bitterroot wilderness and the trails were finally open to her favorite season of the year, fire season.
Always sounded crazy that way, but since it was only inside her head, it didn’t really matter. Did it?
Tess left behind the main roads, then the paved ones. Soon she was winding her little pickup along a narrow forest road. The only tracks were the team that had come up to inspect for washouts and clear downed trees. Now it was just her.
She was done with the seven grinding months of working Missoula bars. Six beers, four shooters. Another round of eight Jell-O shots and a pitcher of something dark—that table wouldn’t know the difference anymore if she shit in the pitcher rather than filling it with the most expensive stout on tap. (Sometimes her sense of humor was the only thing that survived those nights.) Five orders of, Hell no, I’m not going home with you. Two scotch rocks neat. And if you call me Hey, Blondie!
once more you’ll be wearing this pitcher rather than drinking it. Three more pints of lager, one of pale ale, and a whiskey sour. Two more servings of Hell no…
Her looks earned the attention, and more importantly the big tips, but that didn’t mean she was going to choose herself a man that even thought of coming near a place like that.
No idea where else she was going to find him,
but it wasn’t at the Spotted Pony Bar.
For seven months she’d done her servitude in the kick-ass cowboy bar in Missoula filled with broke college students and rich skiers come to conquer Montana Snowbowl by skiing all thirty-nine trails without dying in the process. Half of the runs were Black Diamond
—most difficult—trails; that should kill at least of some of these dweebs, shouldn’t it? Few made it more than a dozen runs before getting trapped in the swirl of this bar and a dozen more just like it that lined the road from the mountain into town—a strip locals avoided like the plague around two a.m. last call. Even the cops were careful driving this stretch after midnight.
Tess was finally done with bowing
