Review: Jack still burns bright
Rating: 4 out of 5

This is almost the epilogue Jack and Caroline needed and deserved. Exactly one year later from when Jack came back into Caroline's life (Dangerous Lover (Avon Red)), this short story finds them cozy in bed on Christmas Eve, and it was a very sweet and sexy scene. Just like old times, Jack, even with that perpetual h**d-on and the headboard slamming (man, did I miss him), still comes across as very sweet and ultra-protective of Caroline. There is no doubt that he'd kill any man who'd even think about hurting his wife. So while Jack is the master of his domain, LMR allows Caroline to be the hero here when a threat shows up on her doorstep, and I enjoyed that.This novella ends on location 873, not sure how many pages that is exactly, but this story felt more complete and satisfying than the previous novella, Reckless Night: A Dangerous Passion Novella. They're probably about the same length, but for me, Hot Secrets felt more put together, and I enjoyed it a lot more. This follow-up to Dangerous Lover gave me more time with my second-favorite couple of the Dangerous series, and I was very happy to see them again. Was it perfect for me? No, but it was a nice, sexy taste of LMR, reminding me of what I love about her and the men she writes.After the featured story, the rest of the download consists of excerpts from each of the three Dangerous novels.
