Product Description
Take one tall, broad-shouldered fireman in his early thirties. Mix well with one skinny, eighteen-year-old college kid who lives for sex, and the results are sheer pleasure. Sam and Robert are about as opposite as you can get, aside from the fact that they're both into sex with guys. When Sam picks Robert up during Canada Day festivities, neither of them are expecting more than making some fireworks for the holiday. And the sparks definitely fly, especially since Sam is able to recharge his batteries as only an eighteen year old can. Robert finds himself both entranced and smitten with young Sam, who is bubbly and happy and can have more sex in the space of an hour than Robert can believe. But there's a world of difference between eighteen and thirty-two, as Sam and Robert discover along the way. Friends and family add to the difficulties they encounter. But the two of them come to realize that underneath it all, they have more than just a physical need for each other. The emotion that blossoms between them is soon as great as their first sizzling attraction. Drew Zachary, the author of Transforming Hades and Skin Deep, has written a romance as hot as the flame it's named after. Don't miss it!

chris owens got lazy perhaps because i recognize the same ol' formula. The characters are hot, and it's worth a read with nothing's around but not as good as other owens work I read. It's only OK. Lots of sex though.
 On Fire by Drew Zachary July 20, 2007

Sam is a 18 years old student with a passion for uniform... and when he sees Robert, a 6 feet and half fireman, all wet in his uniform, his "wet" dreams come true. But Robert is 32 years old and, even if the first encounter is a steamy sex session, he thinks that a boy so young can't stay long in a relationship. But if they want to take a change, maybe this will be the best love of their life.
Sam, Sammy, is a wonderful character: a wild cat in bed and a tender puppy outside. He absolutely loves sex, more and often. Without problems and strings attached. But Robert is something else. He can't be only a one night stands.
Robert is the type of man I like best: a huge man outside with a sweet inside; he wants commitment, he wants love forever...
On fire is a sexy romance filled with funny moments. There is a lot of sex, but it is a joyouse and simple sex, an old way sex... with all the stuff you can read in this days, get excited with it means that Drew Zachary has a happy pen.
 Not Bad...But Not Great February 24, 2008

Robert is a 32 year old Fireman who is openly gay and is mostly content with life. Sam is an 18 year old college guy who is bubbly, bouncy, and always looking for fun. When Sam picks Robert up at a Canada Day festival it's supposed to be just a one night stand but neither guy can quite forget the other. A couple months later when Roberts calls Sam with an invite to dinner their relationship takes off. Dealing with Sam's disapproving father(age difference) and Roberts confused friends(Sam's hair keeps changing colors)the two try to make love connect their many differences.
I had several hang ups about this book. The age difference bothered me. If Sam was just a couple years older I wouldn't have thought nothing of it, but 18? And he wasn't a mature 18 either. He annoyed me about as much as my 18 year old niece does, and I would be pissed if some 32 year old man(or woman) messed around with her. That's too young for 30something. Another problem was the author seemed to base the entire story around sex. For some that might not be a bad thing and normally not a promblem for me, but this went overboard in the repetitiveness. Not to mention pushing the reality boundaries considering Sam could seem to come like 5 time a lovemaking session, and have several sessions a day. That's a guy I'd like to meet! To be honest I grew bored with the book. The constant sex is fine if there's plot and conflict going on around it. Like Bareback by Chris Owen. That was great! This left me wondering what the point was. But hey, different people different opinions. Other reviewers seemed to like it. Try for yourself.
Excellent! March 9, 2007

The sex in this book could singe the page! It's frequent without being repetitive, especially with Sam-the-Energizer Bunny. This is a great example of erotica that is also romance. In between the steamy scenes, we have two men trying to deal with what was supposed to be a one night stand becoming much more. Robert isn't that much younger than Sam's father, and Sam has never been in a committed relationship before. There friends don't exactly move in the same social circles (Sam isn't even old enough to drink!). They fumble their way around these obstacles, of course, giving readers the prerequisite "happily ever after", but without having an utterly predictable ending. Highly recommended!
This is Drew Zachary's first print title from Torquere, and I can only hope there will be more.
Delightful and delicious! March 10, 2007

There is nothing deep about the plot but there is a delightful playfulness in this sexy story which makes it such an enjoyable read. Sam is 18 while his hot hunky fireman is 32. Yet age is never a problem in their relationship as they love, have constant sex and build a life together. The few scenes with Sam's protective yet supportive father is quite engaging.
Incidentally Drew Zachary is the pen name for the collaboration of Chris Owen and Vic Winters. Chris needs no introduction for those of us into M/M. As for Vic Winters, I love the ones I read from Torquere Press though so far they are all short stories. On Fire is a wonderful collaboration indeed!
