Xavier Axelson gives a great insight into the symptoms of PTSD as Officer Michael Carmac deals with the accidental shooting of a young boy.  The story gives great visualization into the bonding and true friendship between Police Officers Michael and Angel, but an undeniable attraction between the two, an attraction that they have been keeping to themselves because of their past upbringings.  However, after all the drama they have been through together and with the help of the shrink, Michael finally realizes that Angel is his fire within that burns all the negativity out of his mind when they are together.I thought it was a good short story.  The romance is really mild due to the already bonding set between two Police Officers.  The erotic scenes were medium for it to be an M-M story.  It only consisted of oral encounters.However, it was great to read about the daily life behind the scenes of a police officer that most of us don't realize the mental trials they deal and go through when off the job and away from the force especially after a tragic incident.
