Heart of Gold by Lynn Hagen

Manny likes his solitude, until his brother talks him into having a roommate. After a forty-eight hour shift at the fire station, Manny came home to a destroyed kitchen and a mouthy stranger.

Too bad Nick’s brother figures it out and tells Nick what Manny and Nick are to each other.

Nick is hot for his new roommate. The guy is sexy as sin, but Nick doesn’t want to complicate things. He’s already been kicked out of one house and doesn’t want to chance it happening again. Until he discovers who Manny really is to him. But someone breaks into their home, and Nick is nearly killed. Can Manny keep Nick safe, or will he lose his one chance at happiness?
