Gabriel Velasques has all the fame, wealth and status that comes with being the town's greatest fireman. You would assume that if you had the house of your dreams, a supermodel for a wife, and constant praise and recognition that you'd be set for life, right?
Gabriel thought that too. He thought if he had everything else in the world, he'd be able to ignore a certain part of him--a part he was happily content with ignoring and locking away--but his life has been far from ideal. Unhapilly married, smothered by work, and battling a past he doesn't want to confront, Gabriel's mental health is in a serious declination.
However, add Nathaniel Park--a cute, gay rookie firefighter--to the mix, and expect an inferno of change. Gabriel knows better to play with things he isn't allowed to touch, but he can't resist. What happens when you play with fire?
Gideon Robinson, forced to retire from the U.S. Army because of an accident in his last mission, tries to earn his life as a bartender in Los Angeles.
Evan Buckley, a firefighter within the L.A.F.D. is tired of people telling him that he is a lonely person even though he's surrounded by a family who loves him.
A fire not too far from a bar starts, bringing both Gideon and Buck into the scene, without them knowing that this was going to be the start of a relationship that will change their lives forever.
