First Response

Kyle Donovan runs his crew by the book. Protocol, order, control — that’s how he’s always operated. So when a hurricane forces his station to shelter with their biggest rivals, he plans to keep his distance from Alex Rivera, the cocky, flashy paramedic who’s been under his skin since high school.

But the storm doesn’t care about old grudges. Trapped together in a flooded building with supplies running low and lives on the line, Kyle is forced to work side by side with the one man who’s always gotten under his skin. The tension between them is impossible to ignore — every rescue, every argument, every brush of contact pulls tighter.

Alex has always known what he wanted. Kyle never questioned who he was. But as the hurricane rages outside and the lines between rivalry and something far more dangerous begin to blur, Kyle’s body starts responding in ways he can’t explain — and can’t control.

Now, with the storm closing in and their crews watching, Kyle has to decide how much he’s willing to risk: his reputation, his career, or the man who’s making him question everything he thought he knew about himself.

Some calls change you forever.
