When tempers flare during what's supposed to be a quiet night out, Alec nearly ruins everything over a stupid bet with an alien gorilla.
Desperate to prove his feelings to Ray, and with Christmas fast approaching, Alec decides the fastest way to Ray's heart is by embracing the thing that threatens to divide them -- a certain werewolf show with a certain star actor who Ray admires. A simple case of kidnapping promises to do the trick, only fur (and fandom) fly when Alec's romantic gesture leads to a very hairy situation. 
Can Alec prove to Ray how much their relationship means to him, or will his plans be ruined by the werewolf before Christmas?

Down In Flames - Hot in Chicago...

Kate Meader

A steamy and emotional standalone MM firefighter-hockey player romance …
"I loved Jude and Hudson and their hard-won romance! Watching them fight their love, then fall in love was everything!" - #1 NYT Bestselling Lauren Blakely

It was supposed to be a random hookup.
At a crossroads, my life a hot mess, I swiped right on the guy with the washboard abs and the tree-trunk thighs. His handle was Holt (yeah, really) but as soon as he opened the door, I recognized him: Hudson Grey, the hottest prospect in pro-hockey and apparently, secretly playing for my team. Not mind-blowing enough? He needed someone to punch his V-card, and I was only too happy to volunteer as tribute . . .
Then he ghosted me when it got to be too much.
A year later, my life is back on track and I’m a candidate firefighter at legendary Engine 6. While I might be new to the Chicago Fire Department, I’m a veteran in the game of steamy hookups. My No. 1 rule? No newbies. Except now Hudson has been traded to my hometown team, the Chicago Rebels, and he’s out, proud, and ready to date. And he wants my help introducing him to the local gay scene.
My messy past means I’m the worst guy to be mentoring the shy, sexy jock. But neither can I stand by and watch while others touch the man who already feels like mine.
I might have been his first, but I’m about to learn that the new guy has even more to teach me about hunger, hope, and falling hard . . .
Includes: First times, hot firefighters, sexy hockey players, mini-golf shenanigans, meddling friends, and fighting like hell for the love of a lifetime.
