Damian always thought being a firefighter should come with some hero cred. But running over a cute, nerdy civilian who’s in the act of rescuing a three-legged cat, and sending him to the hospital with a broken wrist? Not so heroic. Getting hit by a truck isn’t necessarily so bad when it comes with a tall, broad-shouldered, smiling-eyed firefighter straight out of Peter’s fantasies. Although Damian’s straight. He has to be, because this is Peter’s life. And a guy that hot and sweet and funny wouldn’t be interested in a geeky twink with no game and a few extra pounds around the middle, anyway. He’s only hanging around to make sure Peter doesn’t sue. Damian's determined to make amends—he feels awful, and more importantly, Peter's freaking adorable. Can Peter put his self-doubt in its place once and for all or will he let fear win out and lose the man of his dreams? Need a Hand? is a 16k word standalone story that takes place in the same universe as The One Decent Thing and A Totally Platonic Thing. It was available several years ago as part of a multi-author giveaway, but it has been expanded and extensively rewritten.
