This is the culmination of the White Pine series, as the six lovers from the previous books reunite for a charity cause, bringing out past regrets, present loves, and future temptations.

Trent Rodgers returns to White Pine with his lover Angel Montero in tow, with a surprising bit of news. Austin Walker gets the shock of his life after saving a man from a burning building. Not to mention his sudden doubts about his lover Tucker O'Connell when an old flame comes to town for a good cause. Joey Silva, the burly, bearded hunk from the neighboring Honor Hills has tried to be monogamous with his new lover Nick Lynch, but a new temptation threatens their love.

Tossing these six lives into turmoil is celebrity photographer Ellis Van Pelt, who has come to White Pine to do a photo shoot with the firefighters, intent on producing a calendar with money raised for charity. But hidden secrets are about to be exposed, upsetting the delicate balance of their relationships. All is set around a series of mysterious fires that have claimed abandoned structures in town. Were they arson, and if so, why? Does the arsonist have a secret connection to one of the firefighters?
