Summary
A torn seam, a flash of ink, and suddenly everyone’s seen the new tattoo Buck wasn’t ready to explain — two small words in neat, familiar handwriting.
Later, a little drunk and a lot reckless, he runs into Tommy in the bar bathroom. One look turns into a challenge, a tease, a temptation.
And before the night ends, Buck’s showing Tommy his new house—still smelling like paint, sunlight spilling across the floor—and his new tattoo.
The two of them are tangled in old habits, sharp want, and something that feels dangerously close to love. -

Summary
Buck and Tommy have been meeting in secret, a pattern of reckless intimacy without words or promises. In the quiet of Buck’s apartment, every touch, every glance, every whispered confession stretches into unbearable tension. Desire and fear collide as Buck confronts the impossible pull he feels toward Tommy, and Tommy mirrors it with an equal intensity. Every second counts, every touch confesses what neither dares say aloud, and every heartbeat is a risk.

Summary
When Evan "Buck" Buckley joins the LAFD after wandering the world trying to find where he belongs, he walks into a Station 118 led by Captain Bobby Nash where Tommy Kinard is Bobby’s right-hand man.
Buck, eager to prove himself, struggles to find his place among seasoned veterans who see him as young, reckless and undeniably charming. With a growing reputation for jumping into danger and beds alike, he’s the last thing Tommy wants complicating his carefully ordered world. Tommy’s been hiding for years, keeping his sexuality under wraps in a hyper-masculine environment where vulnerability is a liability. Tommy finds himself drawn to Buck in ways he can’t admit to. Buck refuses to back down in the face of emotions he's not sure he understands. Tensions rise as they clash, putting the team at odds. As the 118 begins to shift around them, Buck’s presence challenges loyalties, tests friendships, and triggers changes none of them saw coming.
In a firehouse where every second counts and nothing stays hidden forever, Tommy must decide if he’s willing to risk everything for a shot at something real—with the one person he never saw coming.Series

Summary
Imagine a world where Evan Buckley never became a firefighter. Instead, he’s a chemistry professor with a Youtube channel called Buck the Science Guy known for science that walks on the wild side, a million followers, and exactly zero chill. When Hen stumbles across one of his chaotic science demos, the 118 is instantly hooked.
Tommy says he’s not into watching idiots commit safety violations for clicks. He’s definitely not watching it by himself in the privacy of his own home. And he's definitely not watching it for the guy's smile. Or his laugh. Or his toned, tattooed arms.
Then one day the team responds to a 911 call about a lab on fire, and Tommy comes face-to-face with the walking hazard he’s been not-thinking about for weeks.
Turns out, real-life!Buck is even worse for Tommy’s composure than video!Buck... and far more interested in getting under his skin.
