The men of White Pine have their secrets. Trent Rogers prefers not to talk about his past, but the mysterious, half-naked man who stumbled into his secluded cabin can't even remember his own name. On personal leave from the White Pine Fire Department, Trent wishes he could escape his mistakes with such anonymity. Secluded together, each buries their emotions by indulging their wildest fantasies.
Angel Montero is the new firefighter come to fill Trent’s place, who in no time displays his bravery during a particularly fierce fire. Angel also catches the eye of blonde-haired stud Austin Walker, a fellow fireman and Trent’s ex. Neither man can douse the fires that rage between them, and before long they are embroiled in a heated affair.
These men are unknowingly connected by a deadly tragedy, and it is only after another suspicious accident that they begin to piece together their secrets to find the truth.
Set in New York State’s Adirondack Mountains, SECRET FLAMES is Adam Carpenter at his hottest and steamiest, where men love men with unabashed heat, and where desire is so hot it burns.

Ugg, even giving this book an extra star for being a firefigher book, I can only give it 1 stars.

Sorry Adam Carpenter, I've removed the White Pine Firefighter series from my to-read list. Just not worth the time...

If you like hot M/M sex with angst and emotion and passion and HEA, this one is not for you. Can't recommend.

Sex, SEx and SEX!!! it just kept increasing ... everyone was doing everyone and no one was aware that they were all doing each other!! Well that was mostly happening except Angel and Trent and that seemed to happen with them second to last chapter, then they just knew they were to be together forever and drove off over the bridge to find themselves. I'm pretty sure I can not go back and read this book again or start the others in the series.
1 star for firefighters, 1 star for effort.

I could not give this book a 3.75, so it will be a four. The intimate scenes are very vivid and exciting. But for me the story is kind of weak.

What I can tell you about White Pines, is, the firefighters are horny! They can barely keep it in their pants.

It's an interesting read with lots, and lots of sex. It does have a plot. If you like your men hairy and horny, this books for you.

One thing I can tell you about the White Pine Firefighters, is, they are a horny bunch.

This story has lots and lots of sex. However, it does have a plot. If you like your men hairy and horny then you will have a good time with this.
