BURN SO BAD (INTO THE FIRE #3)

BURN SO BAD                                     J.H. CROIX

Levi
Where there’s smoke there’s fire, and hate can always turn into love.
Lucy hates me. She especially hates how much I want her.
I should give up the chase, but I can’t.
It’s more than a spark between us. It’s a bonfire.
Fate rolls the dice and lands Lucy right where I want her.
She needs my help, and I need her.
One taste and I’m lost. I’ll do anything to have her and to hold her.
To make her mine.

Lucy
Levi drives me crazy, and not the good kind of crazy.
A hotshot firefighter, he nearly sets me on fire whenever he’s around.
Perhaps it’s an occupational hazard.
He teases me every chance he gets and tempts me to let down my guard.
I definitely don’t need a man.
But Levi’s more than a man. He’s a man on octane fuel.
One night of weakness, and I tumble into his fire.
It’s more than I expected. It’s how I feel when I’m with him — safe and protected. I never want to let go.
I might get burned if I’m not careful.

*This is a full-length standalone romance with a guaranteed happily-ever-after. 

MY REVIEW:

When you come from a background of abuse you only know shame, hurt, and fear. That pretty much sums up Lucy’s life. Yet, she rarely talked to anyone about her past. She is a gorgeous petite woman that you would never figure out by the way she dresses and outside attitude. She has such an awful outlook toward dating.

     Although, she has a mad crunch on Levi. For two years he has been asking her out to dinner and consistently she has rejected him. But, when she gets evicted from her apartment after Levi saves her life at her construction site, she is frustrated because her secret crush has invited her to stay over at his place.

     Under different circumstances, this would be good but she feels put out that he asks. This is a quirky piece that has you walking through sadness and realizing you’re laughing during the next page. I give this: 5 stars. Free on Amazon. www.1rad-readerreviews.com.
