Knox

As another member of my friend group finds his happily ever after, I’m starting to think I’ve missed the chance at my own. I keep myself plenty busy with the fire station and my contracting business, but when a mandatory rest order from my fire chief leaves me with extra time on my hands, my friends convince me to change my routine and step outside my comfort zone in order to find what I’m looking for.

I thought drinking different beers in a different bar, in a different part of town, would suffice, but fate has other plans, and Taylor enters my life in a whirlwind of chaos.

There’s a zero percent chance he’s what I need…or want, for that matter. He’s far too young, much too vibrant…and a guy. But still, I’m consumed by thoughts of him. His voice, his smile, and the pain in his eyes that mirrors my own continue to haunt me long after I flee the bar.

So, when I show up at a new job site and it’s Taylor who answers the door, I know I’m in trouble.

Ten days is all it takes for Taylor Landry to send everything I thought I knew about myself up in flames.

Taylor

A catastrophic breakup with a man I never should’ve touched left me numb, at odds with my family, and unable to find my fire. So, when my siblings offer to take me out for my birthday, I jump at the chance for reconciliation and a night of fun. But one wrong step has me literally landing in the arms of a stranger. And the connection is enough to reignite my missing spark.

Except one look tells me history is about to repeat itself, and I can’t go down this road again.

But when the ruggedly handsome stranger shows up on my doorstep two weeks later, I become determined to get under his skin and into his bed. Knox Bennett is everything I should avoid. He’s over forty, moody as hell… and straight. Yet I find myself inexplicably drawn to him. When he proves he’s willing to learn, I’m more than ready to teach.

It only takes ten days to realize we’ll either ruin each other beyond repair or be exactly what the other needs to set our hearts and bodies ablaze.
