A swoon-worthy romance from USA Today Bestselling Author J.H. Croix!

A hotshot firefighter falls for his friend’s sassy sister in this swoony small town romance.

Jasmine

I lost my job, lost my fiancé, and started a bar fight. That’s how I met Donovan Ryan. Don’t worry. I gave another guy a bloody nose, not Donovan.

Donovan is way too handsome for my own good, certainly for my peace of mind. He’s also one of those save-the-day hotshot firefighters. You know the type. Strong, protective, dangerously hot.

Now isn’t the time for me to fall for anyone. I won’t. I definitely won’t.

Donovan

Jasmine Phillips has a solid right hook. She’s also crazy beautiful with a fiery temper. I can think of quite a few things I might enjoy about fiery.

But Jasmine’s off limits, and I don’t do love. Then, she kisses me and sets me on fire. There’s lust, there’s love, and then there’s this.

Jasmine makes me question everything. She makes me want to move mountains. I would—for her. Only her.

Maybe it’s crazy. Or maybe it’s the only thing that makes sense.

*A full-length, standalone romance.

The second book I read in this series

I went from Book 1 to Book 7. Ironically, the two books have common elements. Cue a single woman drinking alone in a bar. She decides to play pool with some unknown guys. One guy throws lewd looks and comments her way, so she punches him, and then is rescued by the friendly barkeep and another guy in the bar. I almost stopped there, but I have been pleased with other novels and series by the same author, so I kept going.

The series takes place in a small community and shares characters, but this reuse of plot is excessive and disappointing.

Another good one

Croix writes fun, flirty, steamy romances set in the wilds of Alaska. Her male leads are strong alphas with just a touch of vulnerability. Her females tend to be strong, independent women. Donovan and Jasmine fit those roles and play off each other well. A couple of times they got a little too bogged down with the past, but their banter kept me reading. Love that you can jump into this series with any book and not feel lost, but if you’ve read the other books, you’ll see characters you love.

Potter Meets Firefighter and the Sparks Fly

Hot sex and tender love by the truckload in a small town setting. You cannot help but fall for these attractive and nicely fleshed-out lovers.

There is minimal angst - just enough to put a little tension in the story.

It all ended too soon for me, and I really wanted to read more about their life together.

This is definitely going into my favourites on my digital bookshelf!

HOT!

Great addition to a great series. I somehow missed reading this book when it was first published. It was fun catching up with these HOTSHOT firefighters!

Oh no! I just one-click the rest of the series and find annoying errors in this book....

Whilst I had loved the series up until this point I just one-clicked the rest of the series, at a ridiculous price each, mind you... and the within the first couple of chapters I was annoyed.
How is Em still only 15 in this book, when it is set over a year later than when she was 15 in the last book? Why is Jasmine's hair blonde in her original description, then dark amber later? These things annoyed me, and detracted from Jasmine and Donovan's story development for me.

Fighting The Fire

Donavan and Jasmine have both been betrayed by people they trusted, in his case a best friend from childhood, for her it’s her fiancé. Coming home to Willow Brook to lick her wounds and start her life over, she doesn’t plan on meeting Donavan and having such a connection. He’s a Hotshot firefighter also not looking for any type of relationship, she is also his friends little sister. However, the fire between these two burns brighter than the ghosts of their past. This book was lovely and I truly enjoyed Donavan and Jasmines story.

A fun read

The author creates such interesting and entertaining characters. Jasmine is a kick. She’s fiery and strong-willed and just plain out there at times. Donovan is her match for sure. This one is emotional, highly-charged, and intense. It’s fun, entertaining, and a great addition to the Fire Series.
