Overview

Sometimes even the strongest men need saving. Hunter: As an Alaskan smokejumper, I'm used to palling around with tough guys. My best friend Jared just became Chief of Police here in Gateway, and the whole town relies on him to keep them safe. I've realized I want to serve and protect him in an entirely different way. When he's forced to vacate his apartment building and takes the apartment on my property, we get close. When his patrol car gets snowed under and he is struck with pneumonia, we get closer. I'm the one to come to his rescue. He may be the one who is unconscious, but my best friend has become my fever-dream. Can the fantasy I have of us together, forever, become reality? Or is it too dangerous for an officer and a smokejumper to fall in love? This 50k-word novel is steamy, crackling with suspense, and filled with heart-wrenching feels. It can be read as a standalone.
