“You’re a troublemaker. You’re worthless.”

The voice of his brother was just as vivid now as it was twenty years ago, but Jason is content with his best friend, roommates and firefighting crew. It helps that he has an engine load full of humour in his arsenal. What better way to hide his feelings? He’s going to need every ounce of that humour when he has to stand semi-naked in front of a camera for a charity firefighter calendar.

“Is that a camera in your pocket or are you happy to see me?”

Harry tries to push aside the voice of a certain firefighter, but after spending several hours with the man, he finds his walls splintering. Jason’s job is a problem for him, and he doesn’t see a way around it. A chance meeting in a bar allows them to take the one night they both want, but that encounter sets off a chain of events neither could predict.

What happens when Jason’s memories and Harry’s anxiety reaches their limit?
