Kind of forgettable, but enjoyable enough. Nic is a scientist who studies how fire impacts various materials. She returns to Seattle to profess her love for her best friend, Skylar, only to find out that Skylar is moving to Fiji. To farm and live off the grid, free from social media, despite being a famous influencer. Nic meets firefighter Kira, who joined the group while Nic was away, and they work together to try to manipulate Skylar into staying. As they plot against (or for?) Skylar, they realize their attraction is growing. I thought initially Skylar might be making up the whole move as an elaborate way to get Nic and Kira together, but that wasn’t the case. A large part of the book focuses on Nic’s uncertainty with her grant-funded career, and Kira’s frustration over being repeatedly passed over for promotions. The chemistry was only ok for me. (6.5)
