Arizona Heat

I am not gonna brag here about how bad AZ's heat is - Coz u can imagine just with this one.
I had planted a money plant and left it in our patio and the plant grew really well but after we had such a horrible week last week (temp hitting >115F), some of its leaves have turned completely black (burnt completely that when i try to pluck those leaves, I am left with ashes in my hands) -- My mom is sure upset about the plant dying as she is the care-taker of them.
