A rookie firefighter, a quiet hero, and a dog who brings them together.

After a tragic house fire claims two lives, rookie firefighter Tyler Morgan is left reeling from the weight of his first failed rescue. The only bright spot? A golden Labrador they manage to save - Maggie, a gentle soul who becomes his quiet anchor through the storm.

Veteran firefighter Adam Brooks has seen loss before, but something about Tyler's grief and vulnerability strikes a chord, as it reminds him of his younger self. When station policy forces them to give up the dog, Adam adopts Maggie instead - offering Tyler an open door to visit and a reason to keep coming back.

What begins as shared sorrow deepens into something warmer. As the men navigate tension, trust, and the truth about who they are, a slow-burning connection sparks between them - one that might just turn into something lasting.

HEAT is an erotic, tender, slow-burn MM romance Novella about healing, courage, and the unexpected places we find love.
