MetroGen Scandals #0.5
Ablaze
He's her mean boss, and they don't know their first meeting is going to change EVERYTHING.
Fire Chief Noah Baker knows he rules his fire department with an iron fist. His subordinates quake in their boots under his piercing silent glare. It's necessary because it's up to him to make sure the city doesn't burn down.
He doesn't need a distraction like getting stuck in a supply closet with the most delicious and kissable woman he's ever met... who happens to be one of his rookie lady firefighters.
Fall for Fire Chief Noah Baker and firefighter Erin Hudgens in this fun, steamy prequel to their first book Smolder. You should only read if you wish Grey's Anatomy and Chicago Fire had an unyielding gorgeous blonde fire chief who give your body unspeakable pleasure between the sheets - bonus because this mean grumpy boss series is written by a real ER doctor.

Grumpy sunshine heat when good girl nurse is forced to room with the surliest deputy in a small town!
Carina Alyce is the pen name of the Amazon best-selling author and full-time triple board-certified physician who started writing dramatic medical romances after twenty years in the trenches of health care. She promises she never had sex in a call room – the mattresses are not comfortable – or had a fistfight with a patient – though she did work as a fight doc at the Octagon. Her MetroGen romances are sexy, snarky, and real with all the heat and drama of the lives of our first responders.

She writes the MetroGen Downtown series that tackles the personal and professional challenges facing our front line providers. Her stories have the drama of Grey’s Anatomy, the comedy of Scrubs, the sexiness of Outlander, and the medical details of Forensic Files. They feature fast, witty dialogue, strong women with goals, and quirky ensemble casts because the hospital is full of smart weirdos who are willing to save your life.
When not working or writing, she is a brown belt in judo, an avid reader, and an attending surgeon in stuffed animal veterinary medicine for her six kids. (No one trusts her husband’s medical skills because he’s just a lawyer.) You can join her Prescriptions for Love Newsletter here!

Off to a hot start
A short story with some extra heat about the love affair that officially starts with the book Smolder. A good way to find out if the books by ms Alyce are to your liking. She writes about strong man and women, you’ll find lovable characters (most of them), witty banter, steamy scenes and it will give you lots of enjoyable reading hours. Only 4* because it’s so short.

I knew this was a prequel but it was much too short. I can not wait to dive into the real deal and get to know these characters and watch their relationship bloom.
