They’re turning up the heat...on love
Haunted by a life he couldn’t save, Omar Ewing walked away from his successful family business to become a firefighter—risking his own life every day. Now he’s sworn to track down an arsonist who’s already struck twice. Working with beautiful local journalist Gabrielle Leonard definitely has its perks...until the man who finds it safer to play the field is in danger of losing his heart.
Gabrielle has her own reasons for teaming up with Omar to investigate the suspicious blazes. But the seductive San Francisco firefighter is bringing her dangerously close to a flame that has burned her before. With each scorching kiss, Omar is branding her his woman. But when Gabrielle becomes a target, will she be able to trust her future to the man who has vowed to protect her at all costs?
And then he did it. He pulled her into his arms, and she gasped slightly just before his lips came down on hers. Even as he started to kiss her, he wasn’t sure what he was doing. There was just so much fire between them and this was the only thing that would quench it.
Gabrielle stiffened in his arms, a moan of protest escaping her lips. But as he slipped his arms around her slim waist and pulled her against his body, he felt the moment when she surrendered to the kiss.
She softened against him, and Lord, all of the tension ebbed out of Omar’s body. This was how he wanted her. Her lips and body pressed against his. As she kissed him back, the woman who seemed only able to fight with him morphed into someone else. She was blossoming into—
Gabrielle violently pushed herself out of his arms. As she looked up at him, her eyes shot fire. “What the heck are you doing?” she demanded.
“Kissing you.”
“I know that. But, my God, why?”
“Seemed like the most effective way to quiet you,” Omar muttered. He wasn’t surprised when her eyes widened with fury.
Sometimes it’s tough being a romance writer. Imagining all those hot heroes and sexy scenes? Delving into a world where that sexy hero becomes putty in the right woman’s hands? It’s hard work!
Of course, I’m kidding. Not about writing being hard work, but it’s certainly the best work for the very reasons I mentioned above. What’s better than writing about a hot hero and a feisty heroine who meet and there’s instant fire?
That’s exactly what happens in Passion Ignited. Literally, sparks fly between Omar and Gabrielle because they’re at a fire scene. And also figuratively, because the heat between them is immediate.
I know how much you love continuing stories—and a playboy hero who doesn’t want to settle down. That’s why this book is about Omar, who you may recognize from the first two books in my Love on Fire series. Little does Omar know, his playboy days are numbered! This was a fun story to write, and I hope you all love it!
