Description
Firefighter Ashton Blaise is brave, handsome, kind, and can cook both on the stove and in the bedroom. He routinely saves animals from the flames. Women want him, all except Leah Allain, new director of the local animal shelter, not even after he saves a kitten found in her burning house. Her resistance intrigues him as does the fact that her home was intentionally set afire.
Not totally immune to Ash's charms, Leah is determined not to get involved with another guy out of her league like the married man who took advantage of her. Responsible for her senile grandmother, this time she cannot pull up roots and run. Though she picks on Ash's few faults to drive him away, he keeps finding excuses to be part of her life. Can Ash start a fire in Leah's heart and keep it blazing?

I was given an ARC from NetGalley in exchange for an honest and independent review.
A fairly average romance novel with some lighthearted humour. I liked the characters and enjoyed the banter between Leah and Ash. But I felt that there could have been more depth and storyline. For me it seemed to lack purpose or excitement.

Update: The book I received through Netgalley was not complete...hence the abrupt ending. I have received the full book and will be amending my review as soon as I have finished reading the remaining story
A quirky semi-romance that was a quick read with a very dissatisfied ending. Not even a cliff hanger, it just ended without purpose. The characters were a bit stiff, Ash being the only one that possessed anything near a personality. There were some lighthearted moments between Ash and Leah, with humorous banter, but even Leah's character seemed so down on herself that it was a bit depressing. Not sure were the story could have gone, but some closure would have been satisfying.
This book was provided by the Publisher and NetGalley for my honest review.

Overall a good read, although at times it seemed to drag. I found myself skimming to try to get to some action. Leah is a vet tech who is in charge of an animal shelter. Ash is a firefighter and the two meet when her house is set on fire. At first Leah seemed pretty cold to me, not caring about the kitten who Ash saved.
The humor was lighthearted and I liked that Ash didn't give up on Leah.
