One man is trying to retire early. The other is just trying to pay rent.

Ash has a plan for everything. As a tech manager at Query, he lives by spreadsheets and the gospel of Financial Independence, Retire Early. But a brutal demotion shoves his freedom date twenty years into the future, and a guest-speaker slot at a mountain retreat is his best shot at getting back on track.

Kael Wright is an artist barely holding his life together, with a billionaire patron he doesn’t trust and no patience for tech bros in Patagonia vests. When he accidentally books a FIRE retreat instead of the creative getaway he thought he was getting, the last person he wants to be stuck with is Ash: rigid, infuriating, and far too easy on the eyes.

Then a wildfire evacuation leaves them stranded in the Northern California backcountry with nothing but what they can carry and the increasingly inconvenient fact that they work better together than apart.

Getting out will take teamwork. Holding on to what sparks between them will mean surviving everything waiting off the mountain too, including Alistair Blackwood, the billionaire with money, power, and far too much control over both their futures.

FIRE on Fire is a forced-proximity, opposites-attract M/M romance with sharp banter, high emotional stakes, and hard-won heat that proves the best things in life don’t fit on a spreadsheet.
