Alex Porter's life goes up in flames the night his tiny bookstore catches fire. Powerless to stop it, he can do nothing but stand by and watch as the only thing he's ever loved is taken from him. Fire sergeant Matt Fields is ordered to Cliffside, Maine by the privileged Porter family, which doesn't mix well with his quick temper, to investigate exactly what happened. When he meets Alex, he can almost taste the sexual tension hanging between them and fights to focus on his job to find out what started the blaze. Once Matt discovers arson, a simple case of accidental fire becomes much more dangerous, and Alex's life is suddenly at risk. Someone is out to get him…and Matt wants to know who. As he digs deeper to find the person who torched the shop, he and Alex finally give in to the wild heat between them. From hot as hell phone sex to even hotter face-to-face encounters, they grow closer together as the case spins out of control. In the end, their newfound love will be put to the test when secrets come to light and arson turns to murder.
