My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Quinn Sanders grew up in a strict religious family and so was not able to come out as gay. Instead, he coped by being a bully and has many regrets now he is older and wiser. He became a New Orleans firefighter and after a horrific fire made him the only survivor of his station house he lives with survivors guilt. He transfers back home to Baton Rouge for a fresh start but the past is there to torment him. Firefighter Jase Turner has had a lifetime of therapy but is terrified of anyone discovering he is gay so hides behind the masculinity of his job. When Quinn transfers to Jase's station old feelings of animosity resurface causing tension in the firehouse. As they have been forced to work together they discover they have far more in common and Jase starts to see Quinn in a new light. Will they be able to overcome their history and give in to the intense emotional connection they now have?
I loved this dramatic story of the two firefighters who had painful histories which left them with passion and similarities that had been handled in different ways. As they started to see life from each other's viewpoint and understood their pasts better it was great to see that their communication also improved. I loved how Quinn just knew what was going to happen in the fire and took unilateral action to save Jase and that he then cared for him afterwards. I did find the way Quinn covered Jase's medical bills strange - surely as it was done at work it was covered by the fire department? Easy to read, feel and understand. This is an MM story with mature content.
