Summary

Emrys Morgan is on his way from San Francisco to Los Angeles when the Palisades and Eaton fires break out. By the time his plane lands, the person he was coming to see -- his father, with a Craftsman house in Altadena -- is gone. But Emrys was coming to discuss his imminent relocation to the Craftsman. There's work to be done, and diving right into it helps him process his grief.
Felix Paulo lives across the street from the Craftsman, and was on hand to help when Rhys Morgan went down. Now he wants to help Emrys. They'd only met once before, but Felix thought there was a vibe. Over the next few days, Felix, his siblings, and Emrys make some big changes in little time. The neighbors grow close so quickly, the vibe must go both ways. Can a giant disaster be the spark for a long-burning flame?

    Summer is the start of the busy season for Neptune's Pool Service, owned by Pete Crawford. A new client, Corey Brennerman, captures Pete's interest, if only because he seems attached to his cell phone 24/7. Corey is a serious workaholic. Pete remembers when he used to be like that, and he wishes he could do something about it.
Pete comes to Corey's aid in a grocery store parking lot one evening and helps him catch the punk who tries to steal his cell phone. As a result, their relationship moves from that of client/hired help to cautious friends. When a Fourth of July party leads to a tryst, Pete is running scared because he thinks Corey is too stressed and vulnerable to handle anything serious right now. But Corey confronts him, and they work things out -- in the pool, naturally. 
A death in the family brings them even closer together. Can Corey make some positive changes in his life? Could the relationship they've begun to build become something that might last forever?
