[Longer Blurb]
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?

Help by the name of Lucas Morgan, they boy he'd always known but never known. The boy with big dreams and bigger talent. The boy that changed Nathaniel's life over the course of their thirty-six week long senior year.Complete
