Review: Promising start, I am looking forward to reading more. I found this one interesting and surprisingly good for such a short read.

Ablaze is the first part of a short erotic romance serial by Morgan Black. This one originally drew me in because of the super hot cover, but I also thought that the blurb sounded really promising. I am not usually one for novellas or short stories, but this one for seemed different. I have some mixed feelings about this story, but I am really glad that I took a chance on this one. I am looking forward to reading more as this serial progresses, and I can't wait to see what happens.Looking to get away for the weekend, Cheyenne decides to go to a cabin on her family's land. She is meeting her not quite boyfriend, although she tells her family that she is meeting her friends. To get to the cabin, it is three hours by snowmobile and her family doesn't want her to go by herself. So they send her with a ranch hand Luke to make sure that nothing happens to her. Cheyenne has a bit of a crush on Luke, but is committed to her future with Collin. Once her and Luke reach the cabin, the weather starts to get worse. Cheyenne receives a call from her boyfriend saying that he can't make it. Luke begins to head back to the ranch, but he runs out of gas and can't make it back. So he heads to the cabin to wait out the blizzard. Cheyenne and Luke spend their time getting to know each other and before long they are giving in to their attraction.I liked both Luke and Cheyenne. Since this one was so short, I feel like we didn't get a chance to get to know the characters that much, but I found them interesting. Cheyenne is basically entering into an arranged marriage with Collin and Luke seems to have a lot of preconceived notions as far as Cheyenne goes. It will be interesting to see how things play out between them. Luke and Cheyenne had a lot of chemistry though. I am looking forward to reading the next part, Flames. I would recommend this one if you are looking for a really quick read that will be continued. It does end on a bit of a cliffhanger, and we are left wondering what will happen next. Overall, I think that this one was a promising start and I am curious to see how this story plays out.**ARC Provided by Mark My Words Book Publicity via NetGalley**
