Up In Flames
Oren Reid is on top of the world. He and his two best friends have just passed the bar, and he doesn't think life could get any better. What it could get, though, is a whole lot worse. Oren loses both of his friends in a car accident in which he's the sole survivor. After the accident, Oren is a mess, but he's a determined mess. Eventually, he finds himself back on his feet, going out and trying to live his life, and one night he spots someone he never expected to see again—the man who saved his life.

Will Dorsey's dreams have come true. The only thing he's ever wanted is to be a firefighter, and now that he is, he's never going to let go of his dream job. Then Oren literally—and figuratively—crashes into his life and changes everything. Working Oren's accident was a typical part of the job for Will, but when they meet again months later and Oren wants to be friends, Will doesn't have it in him to say no.

Oren is straight, so as their friendship develops, Will keeps his growing interest and attraction for the other man to himself. He isn't out, and he doesn't want to be. Only Oren isn't as straight as he always believed, and he's falling hard and fast for the man who pulled him from the smoking wreckage. Will feels the same, but if he comes out, he risks losing everything.

Oren and Will must decide if their future is worth walking through fire for… or if the new love between them will just go up in flames.

Oren appears in Harboring Secrets as Liam's best friend. However, this book happens prior to those events, and is a complete standalone.
