Blurb for FIRE ME UP:
If You Can’t Stand The
Heat…
Teagan O’Malley can handle a crisis. She’s a paramedic, it’s her job. But she
never expected to land in the kitchen of her father’s pub, with no notice, no
cash, and no room for error. The kitchen is not her favorite place. Lucky for
her, she just scraped a bad-boy chef off the pavement after a motorcycle
accident—and something about him says he can turn up the heat in more ways than
one.
Adrian Holt has had a rough few years, and he’s not eager to get tangled up in
anything more complicated than a good risotto. But with a broken arm and a head
full of bad memories, he needs a challenge to keep him sane. Teagan’s dare-me
attitude and smoldering mess of a bar are just what the doctor ordered. And the
two of them together might cook up some even better medicine…
~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~ ~*~
When his boss returns
early from her honeymoon, Adrian Holt is ordered to go home and take some time
to relax. She tells him there’s more to life than being her sous chef at the
restaurant. He disagrees but agrees to go home and get some rest before the
dinner rush. The last thing he expects is to have mini-van clip his motorcycle
and send him flying against the asphalt. When a gorgeous red-haired paramedic
insists on taking care of his injuries, he has no clue where it’s going to
lead but he’s willing to follow those luscious lips anywhere.
Teagan O’Malley has seen
her share of bad accidents and when a motorcycle is involved she always fears
the worst, but her new patient seems to think he’s more Superman than human and
perhaps he is. Well, he quickly becomes her hero in the kitchen.
Kimberly Kincaid never
ceases to amaze me at how true to life her characters become to us, and Adrian
has always been a little bigger than life for us in this series. In FIRE ME UP,
she shows us just how caring, and real, this big man is and Teagan is
just the woman to bring it out in him.
We learn a lot about
Adrian in his story. We discover his past has been holding him back from living
life, keeping him where it’s safe – in the kitchen. After his accident, he’s
happy to help out Teagan in her bar especially after Carly won’t let him back in the
kitchen at La Dolce Vita because as she points out to him, he needs to heal both physically and
emotionally. Carly has her own news, which shakes up the kitchen but she isn’t
going to allow Adrian to run roughshod over her, no matter how big he is or invincible he thinks he is.
Teagan and Adrian make a
perfect match, Superman and Red – love that! She doesn’t take any lip off Adrian, and he
can’t give her enough lip action. He doesn’t call her Red just because she’s a redhead. And as usual, don’t read FIRE ME
UP while hungry. I swear my stomach actually growled at one point. I’m a not a
pulled pork fan but those sliders sound delicious and don’t even get me started
about dreaming about those gnocchi. And then, we get treated to a tease of Nick
Brennan – delicious! I'm already smitten with that guy.
I absolutely recommend
FIRE ME UP, book four in the Pine Mountain series by Kimberly Kincaid because
Kimberly never disappoints. Even when you think it might be a bit predictable,
turn the corner and get surprised. Adrian is just the man I always wanted him
to be and I couldn't be happier than to step aside and allow Teagan to enjoy his
love. If you’ve read this series from the get-go, don’t miss this one and if you
haven’t tried out the Pine Mountain series, you could start with this one but
honestly, I’d start the beginning and work your way to discovering the big man,
Adrian Holt. He can help this redhead out in her kitchen any time.
Happy Reading Everyone!
