Reviewed on FicCentral.com:Allegra’s got just one shot to save her faltering advertising business, and she’s putting everything else aside to make sure she succeeds.  Never mind that she was dumped by her lukewarm fiance just before the wedding.  Never mind that his high standing in the film industry would have given her company just the boost it needs.  Never mind that she just met the sexiest man on the planet in the airport.Jett’s been burned, and he’s going to do something about it.  After his best friend and business partner absconded with all the company’s money, he’s got to close this one big deal, and he’ll be back on his feet.  In the meantime, he wouldn’t mind spending some time off his feet with the beautiful woman he finds at the end of a lingerie trail.  Mixing business with pleasure never sounded so tempting.The Verdict...Okay, so I might have internally fangirl’d a little when Nicola Marsh contacted me about reading and reviewing a couple of her books.  I get review requests on a regular basis, but rarely from an author I haven’t previously corresponded with, and certainly not one with her success record.  And since her stories so far have been pretty much exactly the kind I love to read… Well, that guy in the cubicle right outside my office is totally lying if he says he heard girly squealing.  Maybe.Such a fun story! From the moment Jett and Allegra meet, through all the super-hot getting to know each other (naked, of course!), to the very end, their incredible chemistry and witty banter pulled me right in.  Allegra is strong, determined, and smart, and yet she’s still down to earth and easy to relate to.  Her refusal to back down from what she wanted, both career and man-wise had me immediately rooting for her, and hoped the career thing would work in her favor, she blew right past my expectations.  Where most women in stories like this eventually go the martyr route and give up everything just to prove a point, the way she fought for herself, for her own success and happiness, made for a character I could fully respect.  And Jett…  That kind of cockiness should have annoyed me to no end, but on him?  It’s all smooth charm and undeniable hotness. He knows exactly what to say, perfect and flawed at the same time, and all with an Australian accent.  Yes, it’s time to swoon!Wicked Heat is more than just the standard romance, taking all the things we love about love stories, and wrapping them up with smart dialog, believable characters, and a knock-out scene from the mile-high club.  The only thing missing is a real life Jett!***FicCentral received this book from *the author* for free in exchange for an honest review.
