Playing with Fire By Kate Meader
Series: Hot in Chicago
Publisher: Pocket Books (September 29, 2015)
ISBN-13: 978-1476785929
As the only female firefighter at Engine Co. 6, Alexandra Dempsey gets it from all sides: the male coworkers who think she can’t do the job, the wives and girlfriends who see her as a threat to their firefighter men, and her overprotective foster brothers who want to shelter their baby sister at all costs. So when she single-handedly saves the life of Eli Cooper, Chicago’s devastatingly handsome mayor, she assumes the respect she’s longed for will finally come her way. But it seems Mr. Mayor has other ideas…
Eli Cooper’s mayoral ratings are plummeting, his chances at reelection dead in the water. When a sexy, curvaceous firefighter gives him the kiss of life, she does more than bring him back to the land of the living—she also breathes vitality into his campaign. Riding the wave of their feel-good story might prop up Eli’s flagging political fortunes, but the sizzling attraction between them can go nowhere; he’s her boss, and there are rules that must be obeyed. But you know what they say about rules: they’re made to be broken…
My thoughts: If you are looking for a hot read to snuggle up with on a cool fall day, this is one that you need to grab.
Kate Meader has the knack for creating strong female leads with smart mouths that seem to always land them in a heap of trouble. Alex is not only strong physically, but also mentally. She is quick witted and the banter that is involved between her is Eli is fun and humorous.
Like her other books, this one is loaded with plenty of steam, fun between the family ties, and a hot hunk or two. What can be bad about that!
The author offers a strong and exciting story that continues to build through the entire book. I have thoroughly enjoyed this entire series and I think that Alex and Eli might be one of my faves. But don’t hold me to that as there is more to come in the Hot in Chicago series! I could change my mind!
