Noah Firefighter Noah Byrne always thought his biggest obstacle in life was being a gay man and the only son in a large Irish-Catholic family. Noah has turned hiding his sexuality into an artform, getting by with the occasional anonymous hookup. But lately, not even that works out for him, leaving him unsatisfied and unhappy. But when police officer Joe Pérez comes into his life, Noah’s entire world is tipped on its axis. With the increasing sexual and emotional attachment to Joe, strange and terrifying memories start to resurface, making Noah question what the real reason for hiding his sexuality is. Joe For police officer Joe Pérez it’s lust at first sight when he runs into the hot firefighter with the soulful eyes. Joe doesn’t have the best track record with men—but he’s tired of just being a good time. He wants someone to share his life with. Someone he can take dancing and whisper Spanish endearments to. Someone he can take home to meet his Cuban mami. But if Joe thinks being with Noah is gonna be easy, he’s wrong. But most things worth having rarely are, and Joe has a feeling that Noah is worth it. On paper, Noah and Joe couldn’t be any more different. But who cares about paper when two souls connect and sparks fly? Because occasionally we all need fire in our lives. The kind that sets our body aflame and awakens our heart. And sometimes, we need a saint, too. Someone who sees us and fights alongside us when the ghosts of the past threaten to destroy us. Occasional Fires and Saints is a slow burn, hurt/comfort novel with moderate angst, a little lace and a whole lotta love. Please note: Occasional Fires and Saints is an MM romance with mature content and adult themes.
