Review Originally Posted at: Book FreakRating: 4.5 StarsBe ready to get burned!They were friends, and Jamie wasn’t so sure about crossing THAT thin line that separates friendship from love or lust. She didn’t want to lose him as a friend, but she was so sure that he wasn’t the man for her, or so she thinks. She was all about dating, wine-and-dine, courting, wooing, reading sonnets type of girl and he might be as sexy as hell – but he was a woman’s man. He was a firefighter with an extremely sexy, dirty mouth and talented fingers. They would end up disastrously if she decided to level up their friendship.It took them ONE wild night to make her crave for more. But how can she possibly have him, and then preserve their friendship?Smith had only eyes for his best friend, Jamie. But first, he needed to convince her that she was IT for him and they were in for the long haul. If only, she can see through his past, and trust him. When she offered a week of no-strings attached sex, it surprised him – but he took the bait, ready to show her that he can be the ONE for him too. He could be everything she needs, all she has to do was to trust him.I like Smith, he is a great guy with a stable job, handsome face, sexy body, compassionate heart and very, very industrious. But you can’t blame Jamie for doubting him – her sister just got off from a bad divorce from a man similar to him. And looking at her parents who are completely together since they are enjoying the same things… Yet, Smith will do anything for her – he knows how to woo, in and out of bed, and he’s pretty sweet too. You can’t help but fall in love with him.Jamie had trusts issues, but they have been friends prior. He had proved himself to her several times. She needed to lay down her trust, give him the chance, and admit that she’s head over heels in love with him as well before it’s too late… she might have done something to upset our guy, but she makes up pretty well in the ending. Her ‘grand gesture’ really brought a grin to my face. Ah, finally, she succumbs to the power of love. It’s about time!Burn For Me is definitely a short, romantic and steamy read that will captivate Lauren Blakely’s readers and make them crave for more.✪Complimentary Copy was given in exchange for an honest review.✪More of my reviews at [...]
