Now in Fire and Mistletoe I must admit that there was not a
whole lot of CCB. In all actuality I was tempted to throw some water on Mica
and Grey. But then it would just steam and I'm sure a sexy shower scene would
have ensued. Those men definitely have an affinity for water. I must admit that
out of the two of them, Mica always stood, his fireman gear on, slick at the ready
prepared for the dangerous curves of the story line.
Then, oh the moment of sweet release, when the CCB is
overcome by the universal desire to connect with the one person who fires both
lust and love.
So, when you are the unfortunate recipient of CCB, I'd
suggest a glass of wine, some soft music, and a little time away from your
computer. Sometimes ideas need a little romancing to come to you.
With that bit of wisdom I give to you a blurb from Fire and
Mistletoe. This book is a holiday sequel to Grey's Hidden Fire. So, if you want
to read how Mica and Grey came to together you can catch all the dirty details
and sweet moments of that initial explosion as well. I hope you are intrigued
enough to want to experience their whole story.
Blurb:
When Greyson Hayes envisions the perfect first
Christmas with Mica Cruz he sees twisted sheets, a bottle of wine and a roaring
fire. What he doesn't see is a holiday spent with the uproarious Cruz family.
Grey hasn't taken part in a family Christmas since the death of his parents.
Despite his misgivings, he can't seem to form the word no when it comes to Mica.
Mica knows that Grey's not a grinch. Hell, the
man shares so much Christmas cheer during the holidays that he leaves no time
to experience any for himself. Not this year. Mica plans to make a few changes,
starting with a few wicked and whimsical gifts. He enlists the help of his
co-workers at Firehouse Six. They band together and strive to provide Grey with
the same joy he gives to everyone else--with five a.m. tree hunts,
strategically placed mistletoe and Mica playing Santa's not-so-little helper.
But
while Mica is busy being nice, Grey has plenty of time to be naughty…
Excerpt:
For Mica, there was nothing better than starting the day
watching Grey saunter shirtless around the kitchen, preparing him breakfast.
Grey’s only clothes were a pair of sweats that hung so low on his hips Mica
couldn’t help but be amazed they didn’t slide off. Hell, that was what he
anticipated happening.
Such an event would truly be the beginning of a merry Christmas.
Mica sat on a stool next to the island at the center of the room to continue
his ogling.
“Stop objectifying me,” Grey said before looking over his
shoulder and smiling.
“You like it,” Mica teased. The muscles of Grey’s back
flexed each time he reached for a spice or stirred the eggs. His hair was wet
from his shower and glistened with shades of gold and cinnamon in the overhead
lighting.
“I may like it, but you need to eat, and then I have to
work. If you’re lucky, when your double shift is over, I’ll entertain those
dirty thoughts I know you’re having.”
“Oh, now that’s promising. How about we compromise for the
moment? Drop your pants and bring on the food.” Mica leered comically at him.
Grey’s face became an adorable shade of pink. He loved that even now Grey had
his shy moments. There were so many things Grey did that made his life more
complete, both at home and at work, because he was lucky enough to work and
play with his lover. He’d met Grey when he’d made the best decision of his life
and transferred over to Firehouse Six.
It also didn’t hurt that the man was a fantastic cook. He
pivoted to stir the scrambled eggs, and Mica moved to stand behind him. With a
deep inhale he breathed in the intoxicating, spicy scent that always clung to
Grey, and nuzzled his face against Grey’s neck. He wrapped his arms around him,
tracing his fingers along Grey’s abdomen before pulling Grey fully back against
him.
“Are you sure you can’t fit me in before breakfast?” Mica
whispered and nipped his ear playfully.
The vibrations from Grey’s moan resulted in an answering
hardening of Mica’s cock.
“You are the worst tease,” Grey admonished.
“And you’re so damn practical.”
Grey shifted around in Mica’s arms and grinned. “That is one
of the many things that you love about me.” He ran his fingers through the damp
strands of Mica’s hair. “As it is, because of our shower time, I’m already
going to be late.”
Mica trapped Grey against the counter and gave in to the
temptation of Grey’s soft lips. Grey’s hands tightened in his hair and drew him
away.
“Before you, I was always on time.”
“I exist to create fun chaos in your life.” Mica wiggled his
eyebrows.
“I see evidence of the chaos,” Grey murmured with a pointed
look. “Not just in my life either.”
“No, we settled this.” Mica framed Grey’s face with his
hands. “You always work over the holidays. This year you’re mine.”
Grey sighed and looked to be gearing up for another long
dialogue about how the guys depended on him to cover their shifts and how the
holidays would be ruined if he didn’t.
Mica pressed his fingertip to Grey’s lips. “I want you with
me for the holidays. My family will love you, and you’ll have fun.”
“Mica, I haven’t really enjoyed doing—”
“Babe, we discussed this, and I know it isn’t your first
choice of Christmas options, but we will still be back to do all the volunteer
activities. I promise.” Mica brushed his thumb over Grey’s lips before leaning
in for a soft kiss. “Besides, if you’re good and do this for me, then maybe
I’ll do something fun for you.”
“Is that right?”
“Of course, I don’t know how it will compare to the little
surprises you have in store. I saw the bag this morning.” He pulled back to
meet Grey’s twinkling amber gaze.
Grey shrugged. “I have no idea what you’re talking about,”
he replied, his eyes wide with mock innocence. Any trace of annoyance seemed to
vanish, and Mica hoped that was the last of it. Grey turned to finish
scrambling the eggs that had begun to burn.
“I call bullshit. I saw what was in that bag. Looked like
something from that adult store down
the road,” Mica confessed. The store sold all things erotic, from videos to sex
toys.
“Maybe it isn’t for you?” Grey countered.
“It had better be for me.” Mica jokingly glared at Grey.
“Have a smidgen of patience. Christmas is right around the
corner.”
Mica stepped away from Grey and put his hands on his hips.
Grey rotated to face him. The man was too attractive for his own good. Every
time Mica saw Grey, all he could think was how lucky he was they had been
brought together. Of course, all his cock could think about was how quickly
they could find a flat surface.
“Fine, you win this time,” Mica said, eyes narrowed. “But I
have high expectations for after my shift.”
“I’ll be surprised if you don’t just fall asleep on me.”
Grey laughed.
Mica had to work a double, but not even that would keep him
from slipping into bed with Grey and showing him how much he missed Grey on
those long shifts. Ever since they had come out to the guys at work, they had
tried to keep their interactions with each other professional. It was a little
easier given they had all the time in the world to satisfy their frustrations
outside of work.
“When have I ever done that?” Mica asked.
“There’s a first time for everything. Maybe I should take
care of myself while you’re gone,” Grey threatened and slid his free hand down
to rub his shaft through his pants, putting on a show for Mica.
“Now who’s the tease?” Mica walked off toward their bedroom
to get dressed before breakfast, and briefly glanced over his shoulder.
“Payback is a bitch, babe.”
“But so much fun.”
