    Summary

    It starts with a bomb—an explosion on the ladder truck that crushes Buck’s leg and reveals a deeper wound: cancer. What follows is not just a fight to survive, but a slow, painful journey back through a tangle of surgeries and unexpected truths—like the brother he was born to save and never got to know.
    Now, Buck has to choose: live in the shadow of the role he unknowingly played in Daniel’s fate or rise above it.

    Summary

    The thing that scares Eddie Diaz the most is failing his son. He’s been to war, rushed into burning buildings, taken a bullet or two (or three) but nothing compares to the fear that he will let his boy down. He’s done enough of that to last both of their lifetimes - at least in his eyes.

    Finally accepting that he’s allowed to ask for help, he begins the search for a home aide.

    Enter Buck.

    (Basically Buck is Carla.)

    Summary

    Maddie fiddles around on her phone for a moment. “March 29th is the Kings game?” she asks, and Eddie nods. “I can get you rinkside.”

    Eddie almost chokes on his drink. “And how much is that going to cost?” he asks, considering the cheapest ticket he’s seen is pushing $350 and even then they weren’t rinkside. Eddie feels faint at the thought of it.

    But Maddie giggles and says, “Nothing, they’d be free.”

    Eddie goes to argue, tries to tell Maddie he absolutely cannot take tickets worth probably $500 off her hands for nothing but she shakes her head some more. “My brother plays for the Leafs,” she explains, “the tickets are free for me to get, Eddie.”

    Or, Chris has really gotten into hockey lately. Good thing Maddie's brother plays for Chris's favourite team.

    Summary

    After the tsunami that devastated Los Angeles, Athena goes to the rescue after a report of people in need of help. To her horror, she finds Christopher and Buck stranded amidst the wreckage of the city. And Buck’s leg is pinned — the same leg that had only just healed from being crushed by a ladder truck.

    As time runs out, Buck is being crushed all over again, and Athena faces an impossible choice. With Christopher watching, she must decide: do the unthinkable, risking Buck’s career as a firefighter forever, or hesitate — and let the man beloved by the 118 die in front of the boy who might as well be his son?

    Summary

    Sequel to "With a Friend in the Dark.”

    It's been weeks since Buck's cancer diagnosis, and in most ways, things are looking up. The idea of resuming chemo still frightens him, but not nearly as much as it did last time. This time, he has people on his side. But Buck is about to learn that treatment is just the first challenge. Money troubles, identity crises, learning what real love means for the first time at twenty-seven... who knew cancer would be so complicated?

    Eddie, meanwhile, is still wrestling with his guilt and anger over how he handled things the first time. Being there for Buck? That's a given. Figuring out what it means to be Buck's friend through his cancer treatments, in the wake of all that's happened between them? That seems a lot trickier. Even more so when Eddie starts to realize that anger and guilt might not be the only feelings he's having.
