Tyrone: Alphas on Fire Series

by Brooke Baker

A high heat friends to lovers romance short story, featuring a hot firefighter and a curvy woman Callie She was the girl who thought that her size 20 was something to hide behind loose sweaters and baggy jeans. The girl who had friends, and even had dates, but never really felt comfortable enough on them to feel like it was going anywhere. High school was the best and worst time of her life. She wouldn’t have gone back for anything in the world. At least now she’s more comfortable in her own skin… Except, that is when she’s around Tyrone. Three years ago, he moved to town, became a firefighter, and began hanging around all of her old friends from high-school. Thereby putting him in her life. And he’s been great. Amazing. Caring. He’s been a great friend to me in all three of those years that he’s lived here… and Callie has just been silently in love with him the whole time. How is she supposed to function around him when things start changing? How is she supposed to contain her emotions and desires when both burn so hot? Tyrone Callie is his ideal woman. Curvy, intelligent, caring… and the one woman who seems to have zero romantic interest in him. He could have any number of women should he choose to; they make it pretty public on a fairly regular basis. It’s one of the things that he’d enjoyed since moving to a small town. But no matter what else is offered to him, Callie is always right there, in the background, reminding me of what he really wants. Three years is a long time to deal with pent up desire. So, when it starts to seem like maybe she might be interested after all… how is he supposed to play it cool? Especially when it starts to seem like someone else might be interested in her as well? They are friends, and she's friends with all of those he’d made since moving here, so messing it up isn’t an option. But he’ll be damned if he doesn’t have her. Tyrone is a steamy contemporary short read. It is the second book in the Alphas on Fire Series. It is written for you if you like handsome alpha men with big hearts and sassy, strong heroines.

Callie and Tyrone have been friends, but actually both of them have had feelings for the other for several years but neither has admitted to it. When she mentions Tyrone acting like a brother, he responds that his actions were anything but brotherly! His comments gives him a way to be with her, but as fire alarm drags him away before anything definite is established. Is Callie confident enough to pursue her chance with him? Will he also make his feelings known now that they’ve made the first tentative step toward a relationship?

This was a sweet romance where the reader can cheer for these likable characters who have waited long enough for their HEA! Will they make the right moves to get something started? Grab your copy and find out what is waiting for them!

I liked this story a lot. It was short, entertaining, and enjoyable. The characters were interesting and likable. The quote that cracked me up the most was, “Bunch of mangy crotch-goblins.” I'd never heard that particular term but now I want to use it! Callie and Tyrone have great friends and are great friends. They just don't communicate very well with each other. After 3 years of "just friends" things get interesting and then steamy! I loved their ok you're mine and you're mine. I do wish there was an epilogue further out but I still liked how the story ended. I recommend reading this book.

3 years in the making for a romance to start! This is about Tyrone and Callie. This is a short love story about a couple who has known each over for three years but never acted on anything except friendship. It is until someone else is interested in Callie that Tyrone makes sure that she knows that he is taking possession of what is his. Callie doesn’t disagree as she has been admiring him too. Callie’s friend are a hoot especially Marigold and Amanda. Love to see who is next, maybe Langdon and will there be a wedding? An extra epilogue would be great for all the couples in this series.

Tyrone was a quick and steamy story by Brooke Baker. Two friends Tyrone and Callie have been friends for years but Tyrone wants to break out of the friend zone. Eventually his jealousy over his co-worker Langdon flirting with Callie forces him to act. Callie is confused by Tyrone's behavior but she doubts he could be interested in her. But Tyrone is about to make his feelings very clear. Great read!

The author has, once again, given us wonderful characters. Tyrone and Callie have wanted each other for years, but neither was willing to let their feelings be known. Who will take the first step to their happily ever after?

Tyrone has wanted to be with Callie for 3 yrs., but is afraid to loose their friendship. Callie is in love with Tyrone, but is afraid of rejection. Tyrone finally makes a move when Jordan shows his interest in Callie. But Callie is all for Tyrone. Very short, wish it was longer and more indepth.

This is a quick and steamy read. This is the story of Callie and Tyrone, they both have like each other but never acted on it. The story is entertaining and fun to read. Their chemistry is amazing and just wished the book was longer.

I read Tyrone as part of a boxset and wanted to leave a review for this book alone as i find it deserves it...Tyrone fell in love with Callie the moment he saw her...but never did anything about it as she friend zoned him...now there is someone else interested in her and it looks like she might be too..
There is no way he is going to let another man walk away with the woman of his dreams.
