Amusement park employee Cody hates July Fourth because it's the anniversary of his break up with pretty boy Jaime, a man he used to date and sub for. He changes his tune after a near accident causes Jaime to break the silence between them. They reconnect in more ways than one and go on to create highly naughty fireworks of their own.

Sample

Cody sighed while he punched in by sliding his ID card through the slot at the top of the timeclock. It was July fourth, and the Great Adventure amusement park had expanded their hours to midnight tonight so that people could celebrate in a safe, family-friendly environment. This also meant that he'd been able to grab a much needed double shift. Some of his co-workers had balked at the idea of working today, but he didn't mind at all because he didn't want to be alone.

For most people, barbecues, fireworks, and laughter were associated with the Fourth. All Cody could think about was that he'd broken up with Jaime on this day a year ago.

It had seemed like a good idea at the time. Too bad it'd turned out to be the wrong decision. He paused at that moment and decided to stop obsessing about the past... things were going to be hopping today and he needed to open the ticket booth. He trudged over to his locker and changed into his uniform in record time, as he needed to hustle. Once he was dressed, he glanced at the chart for his assignment.

Great, just great -- he had the middle station. He hated that register -- everything always seemed to go wrong when he worked at it. His very first paper cut from handling money had happened there, his register had been the first to crash when the upgrade to the main system had gone wrong, and he didn't even want to think about the incident with the drunk guy who had passed out at his window. He used to joke with Jaime that there was a curse on the register and one day, it was going to get him.
