Fire on the Mountain P D Singer

Fresh out of college, Jake Landon's heading to the mountains for a season as a forest ranger. A gap year before returning to school might give him enough time to sort out his residency and his sexuality-he's deep in the closet and a complete rookie. Some crusty old partner who speaks three words a day won't entice him.

Except his partner turns out to be Kurt Carlson: confident, competent, and experienced. He's also young, hot, friendly, and considers clothing optional when it's just two guys in the wilderness.

Sharing a small cabin with this walking temptation is stressing Jake's sanity-is he sending signals, or just being Kurt? How would Kurt react if he found out his new partner wants to start a fire of a different kind? Jake's terrified-they have to live together for five months no matter what.

Enough sparks fly between the rangers to set the trees alight, but it takes a raging inferno to make Jake and Kurt admit to the heat between them.
