Feeling Hot is not only the title for this book but it's absolutely the best damn description of my state of being after reading Elle Kennedy's latest Out of Uniform story. I swear right now the song, Feeling Hot, Hot, Hot is so totally running through my head! If you haven't read this series, now is the time to start. Who can resist Navy SEALs and when they ditch their uniforms for some under the covers, up against the wall, in storage closet, table, shower or any other type of lovin', these stories cannot be beat! Take my word for it; this is a series you do not want to miss.This story is about Jen Scott and those of you who have read this series should recognize the last name of Scott. Yes, she is absolutely Carson Scott's baby sister. Carson was featured in book 2, Heat of Passion, and while he was the biggest man-ho of them all, he holds baby sister to a completely different set of rules. Jen is being stalked by an ex-boyfriend who won't take no for an answer, Carson's solution have her move in and be taken care of by one of the men under his command, Cash McCoy. Easier said than done because unbeknownst to Carson, these two have a little bit of a history.Jen is in between jobs and she's pretty much known as the family screw up. This title bothers her but even at 26 she's still not sure what she wants to do with her life. Her family has all kinds of opinions but none of them interest her and they belittle her only passion, her photography.Cash, I have to admit when he told the story of his name a little tear slipped out. An emotion I really didn't expect in this book and that wasn't the only tear I shed. Elle really surprised me in this book, not that I haven't enjoyed the whole series but this particular story had me running the gambit of emotions. Cash is a new member of this SEAL team so when his CO asks him to "baby-sit" his sister, he's not thrilled but if it means a good recommendation for OCS he'll do it. When Carson gives him the "touch her or I'll drown you" speech, he's worried but when he sees Jen he's knows he's absolutely screwed.Cash does his best to stay away from Jen but she's relentless and when these to come together, it is amazing and sexy. When they add in Cash's "wingman" and preferred ménage partner, Dylan, what results is a scene with enough fireworks to light up the sky for a week. The fact that these two seemingly very heterosexual men decide to give Jen her wish to see two men enjoy each other blew me away. Hot, hot, hot.....grab the ice tray because you are gonna need it HOT!Over the weeks Cash and Jen fall into a relationship although they both keep saying it's only a short term affair. It was fun to watch their feelings change and their expectations grow over time. I applaud Cash for encouraging Jen to follow her dreams and do what she wants to do with her life. It was great to watch Jen gain confidence from getting the much deserved ego boost from Cash. It just proves how much people's words can help or hurt someone.In addition to Cash and Jen's growing relationship, Jen's stalker, the camaraderie we always see from the SEAL team, we learn that Carson and his wife, Holly, are having marital problems. I like that Elle addresses the fact that so many military couples go through an adjustment period following deployments.I have enjoyed each and every one of the stories in this series so far but, Feeling Hot is definitely at the top of my favorite's list. The powerful bond between Cash and Jen, the amazingly bold ménage featuring two hot as hell SEALS, and the emotional aspects of this story make this one hell of a great read. Every time I finish a book in this series, I think to myself I can't wait to read the next one and while that thought is in my head, I'm also thinking I can't wait to re-read this one! Congrats Elle on a fantastic addition to the Out of Uniform series!Review copy provided for an honest review.
