The Hot Cannolis Series by Eli Easton, Tara Lain

In the midst of a California wildfire, two opposites find that their only hope for survival is each other. This was Shane’s worst nightmare—a wildfire that threatened the California mountain town where his grandfather lived. He had to get Pops out of there. Thank God for the young firefighter they assigned to him at the barricade. With the handsome but oh-so-butch Mike Canali along for the rescue mission, everything would be okay. Or at least that’s what Shane kept telling his inner drama queen... moreIn the midst of a California wildfire, two opposites find that their only hope for survival is each other.
