Love will test you JULIAN I love my job as the captain of the One-Thirteen firehouse. However, after a draining year, I decide my personal life needs a bit of a kickstart. Signing up to the Rainbow Reach charity is certainly out of my comfort zone, although I’m not sure if anyone in the LGBT+ community will contact me in a small town like Redwood Bay. But when a young woman asks me to walk her down the aisle after her homophobic parents announce they’re boycotting her big day, I couldn’t be more honored. What I don’t count on is her outrageous, gorgeous, and utterly infuriating younger brother flirting shamelessly with me the entire wedding. But maybe a no strings attached one night stand is exactly the kind of thing I’ve been looking for. Except there seem to be strings after all, and one night just doesn’t feel like enough. Blowing a Fuse is a red hot, standalone MM romance. It’s the fifth book in the found family Redwood Bay Fire series. Join the members of the One-Thirteen house as the heat turns up and they find true love! This book features a grumpy fire captain who finally allows his heart to thaw, a sassy younger twink who likes to cause trouble, and a guaranteed HEA with absolutely no cliffhanger. Content Please note that this book starts with an MC processing grief of losing a loved parent, but overall, the angst is minimal.
