    Summary

    Buck never expected a community barbecue for first responders to change his life.

    As a dispatcher, he knows the voices of hundreds of firefighters, paramedics, and police officers. Some he knows better than others. One voice, in particular, has become a familiar part of his shifts.

    Eddie Diaz never expected to recognize a stranger by the sound of his voice.

    One conversation leads to exchanged numbers, late-night texts, and a friendship neither of them saw coming. Somewhere between long shifts, radio calls, and the quiet moments after the sirens stop, Buck and Eddie find themselves becoming something more.

    Or: Dispatch Buck meets Firefighter Eddie at a barbecue, and neither of them is prepared for what happens next.
