Backdraft

Firefighter Miles Ortega knows how to control a blaze.Pressure, containment, discipline — that's the job.What he doesn't know how to control is Luke Navarro.Luke is everything Miles shouldn't want: a fellow firefighter, a dangerous distraction, and the kind of man who makes suppressed heat roar back to life with one look.

Boundaries fracture. Lives shift. And the fire Miles thought he had contained proves far more volatile than he ever imagined.In the world of firefighting, a backdraft happens when a fire looks under control — until fresh air hits what's still burning.This is a slow-burn, emotionally charged MM romance about restraint, risk, and the moment desire becomes impossible to ignore.Book One of the Firehouse Trilogy.
