He'll risk his life…just not his heart

Fiona O'Brien knows how to minimize risk…by never, ever falling for a guy in a hazardous job. And when her brother applies to become an elite Forest Service firefighter, Fiona hits the roof. She'll do anything to keep him safe—even if it means using every sexy tool in her arsenal to seduce the one firefighter who can change her brother's mind.

Hotshot Wyatt Andrews swore to avoid controlling women like Fiona. And he has no intention of intervening in her family business. Still, he can't resist the fiery redhead with the deadly curves. Soon they're engulfed in a blaze of lust that incinerates their self-control. They're playing each other, but if they're not careful they may both get burned.

This is a Steamy Romantic Suspense, and this is the first book in the Hotshot Heroes series. I have read some of the other books in this series, but I decided to go back and start from the beginning. There was a ton of flirting and connection between the two main characters. I really loved all the characters in this book. I really enjoyed this quick read, and I loved getting to know the hotshot heroes in this series. I cannot wait to keep reading this series.

Red Hot
4.5 Stars

Fiona O'Brien has vowed never to date a man with a dangerous career while firefighter Wyatt Andrews has sworn off women who manipulate their partners into giving up the jobs they love. Can these two unlikely lovers find common ground?

A thoroughly delightful read. The title is very apt considering Fiona and Wyatt's scorching hot chemistry and sizzling banter.

Both Fiona and Wyatt are engaging characters and manage to avoid any unnecessary angst stemming from a lack of communication. Their conflict is resolved satisfactorily with very little angst.

My one caveat is the author's repeated description of Fiona as manipulative, which does not actually play out in the narrative. Fiona is honest and open about her plans, so the word choice is questionable.

Looking forward to reading more by this author.

Did not enjoy the start of the book where we are introduced to the uptight, fearful, controlling heroine, but I began to enjoy the story about half way through. Hero, hunky and adorable with a heart, but of course not wanting a commitment. The sex scenes as promised by the title are Blazingly Hot and the best part of the story. 2.5 Stars

Awesome start to this series. I don't know how I missed this book when it originally came out. Wyatt is the kind of man you want to bring home and make feel better for all that he has been through in his life. He's a sensitive man who hides his feelings so he won't have to endure painful situations. Fiona is controlling, but only because she had so little control in her youth. Glad she was able to start making the transition to letting loose a little more. Can't wait to read the rest of this series.

I read Cody's book (#3) first and I liked that one. This one...well, it was just okay. The premise for Wyatt and Fiona's push-pull attraction and their reasoning for trying not to fall for each other was honestly rather silly.

Definitely lived up to the title, and the development of Fiona and Wyatt's relationship was paced really well and full of sexy encounters.

"Sparks fly between the pair, and their self-control goes up in flames as they indulge in their lust for each other. High stakes and intense emotions make this passionate read a sizzling addition to the Hotshot Heroes series" (RT Book Reviews, 4 1/2 stars TOP PICK!).

Hot Sexy Fireman Wyatt Andrews has sworn to avoid controlling woman. Fiona O'Brien has vowed never to get involved with any risk takers, but Fiona needs Wyatt's help with her brother who wants to become a fireman against his sisters wishes. What follows is a hot sexy romance that has sparks coming off the page. Loved it

Red Hot is a sweet and lovable love story. Hotshot Wyatt Andrew enjoys women and being single but, most of all he hates controlling women. Fiona O' Brien hates men who live life on the edge. When Fiona tries using sex to get what she wants. That's when things go off track, who will lose their heart to love? Is the heat in their hearts or is it just a Hot a Shot?
