New to FDNY Engine 58, proby Paul Jefferson has no idea the expectations that the firefighters before him have set. He walks into his new job with an arrogance that’s sure to land him proby duty for the rest of his days but he has the professional skills to back his attitude. Loving every minute of his time with fire, Paul struggles to find his place in the FDNY brotherhood. Outside of the station, a true playboy at heart, he has no issues making connections, but there’s only one girl that holds his heart.
Paramedic Mariana Barbosa is new to the big city. Luckily, her path crosses with Paul Jefferson shortly after accepting her new position. The two instantly connect and become the best of roommates... or something like that. Behind closed doors, the two are the perfect couple without crossing any lines because Mariana is too afraid to risk their living situation to pursue what her heart is telling her she feels.
When Mariana feels betrayed by Paul, she jumps on the opportunity to date the handsome, good guy from work. Paul isn’t a fan of Mariana’s new boyfriend and starts to slack with Engine 58. Things don’t go as expected with Mariana’s new boyfriend and after she uses Paul to cover her issues, she pushes him further away until it may be too late for either of them to admit their true feelings.
Lyssa Layne is first, and foremost, the proud momma to her precious daughter, AR. In addition to working full-time and being a mommy to AR, she is also an avid St. Louis Cardinals fan, a runner, blogger, and an infertility survivor.
Having watched one too many medical dramas and being inspired by author Rachelle Ayala, who introduced her to the world of indie writing, Lyssa decided to try her hand at writing a romance story. Her attempt turned into the Burning Lovesick series. You can find Lyssa’s own interests throughout her stories although all stories are fictional.
Lyssa has done it again, she has written a story that pulls at your heartstrings, leaves you rooting for the couple and gasping & holding your breath at the same time. Mari and PJ have an unconventional relationship but it's totally beautiful, they let their stubbornness get in the way but due to unforeseen circumstances and a terrible moment, it brings them closer together I love Lyssa and her firefighters
Love the matchup between Mariana and Paul. They are fighting their feelings so hard. Roommates who have been together before but want to be friends/roommates. Love their ups and downs. Paul is a firefighter in his first year. The struggles he has have been interesting. Wasn't sure how it was going to end knowing Lyssa's previous book. Loved this.
A pretty intense drama about a firefighter and his woman. They both are struggling with their relationship. Both are trying to ignore their mutual attraction and remain friends. The intensity of this situation builds until almost the end. A huge fire and many surprises at the end.
