My Review

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

I just found me a new auto buy author. Melt For Him was a hot read that I thoroughly enjoyed. Lauren Blakely is a new to me author, but I will definitely be reading her other books. Melt For Him was burning hot from the first chapter. Becker and Megan were perfect for each other.

This sizzling love story will have you fanning yourself because it is so hot. I just love book about fire fighters, so when I read the synopsis of this book, I knew I had to give this book a read. Everyone knows I love romance books. The best part of this book was the fact that it was a forbidden romance.

Megan meets Becker her first night into town. She is supposed to meet her friend Jamie whom she hasn't seen in forever, but she bumps into Beck the owner of the bar where Megan was meeting her friend. They hit it off right away. But, Megan doesn't know that Becker is a firemen, and Becker doesn't know that Megan is Travis is best friend and coworker's sister. Travis warns Becker not to mess with his sister, but it is to late the sparks are already flying, and Becker and Megan can't resist. .

Over all I loved the plot, flow, and all of the characters in this book. I would love one of those calenders of the firemen that Megan was taking pictures of the firemen for. Becker is one sexy alpha male with a dirty dirty mouth. I cannot wait to see what is next for this series. I hope Travis gets his own story.

EXCERPT

***WARNING: sexual content.***

She moaned as he spread his fingers across the soft flesh of her belly. Shivering under his touch, her back bowed and her hips jutted out.

It was an invitation, one he was damn sure he had no choice but to RSVP to. He ran his fingertips along her skin, tracing her belly button, her hips, the edge of the waistband of her shorts. He dipped his head to her neck and licked a path up her neck, her skin so hot. “I want you so much. More than I should. More than I’m supposed to. But I just don’t care because right now I want to hear the sweet, sexy sounds you make when I touch you,” he said, his voice gravelly.

“I can’t stop, either. So don’t you dare,” she said. She grappled at his shirt, her hands frantic as she pulled and tugged at his clothes, as if she couldn’t get him near enough. He felt her fingers grasping at his shorts, jerking him even closer.

He groaned as he pressed against her, his cock hard and heavy, and he wished he had a condom with him, so he could strip off her clothes, pull down his shorts, and thrust into her. He slid his hand between her legs, feeling the heat of her desire through her shorts. She gasped the second he made contact; she was so ready to have him inside her.

She moaned again, and it started as a long, low sigh that became his name. “Becker.”

“Do you have any idea how much I want to be inside you?”

She nodded against him. “As much as I want you there,” she answered quickly, her voice ragged.

“I want to bury myself inside you right now. I want to feel you gripping me,” he whispered huskily against her neck.

“And then?” she asked, rocking against his hand, greedily seeking out his fingers even through the layers between them.

“You’ll give yourself to me, spread your legs wide open, take me all the way in.”

“I will,” she said, as she shuddered in his arms. He wrapped a hand around her waist, keeping her steady.

“Then I’ll kiss you while I fuck you,” he whispered into her ear.

She gasped, and wriggled her body closer to his. “I want that. All of it. I want fucking and kissing,” she said, her breathing turning more erratic.

“I’ll fuck you like I kiss you, and kiss you like I fuck you. With nothing held back,” he said, his tongue darting against the salty skin of her neck as she trembled against him.

“Do that to me now,” she said, her breathing turning erratic, her sounds reminding him how close they were flirting with danger.

Too close.

Like the moment before a back draft.

Message from Lauren: I want to let you all in on a little secret about me. I love hotfiremen. I stare at hot fireman. I slow down when driving past thefire station to try to get a better look at the men inside. Whichmight explain why I wrote a sexy firefighter series! But all oglingand firemen lust aside, not only are firefighters sexy, they are alsobrave, courageous and active in their communities. As I wrote MELT FORHIM, I learned more about the work that volunteer fire departmentsaround the country do -- both in responding to emergencies and inhelping their communities. And because firefighters have given me somuch inspiration, I wanted to be able to give back with this book. That's why I will be donating half of all my proceeds from thepreorders and release week sales for MELT FOR HIM to the NVFCFirefighter Support Fund that supports the nation's volunteer fire andEMS departments. Together, I believe we can all make a difference andhelp support the men and women who serve our local communities andcome through for us when we need them most! xoxo Lauren About MELT FOR HIM: He knows exactly how to make her burn… Fire captain and bar owner Becker Thomas usually spends his nights alone, trying to escape painful memories from his past.
