Burn So Bad — J.H. Croix

Levi Where there's smoke there's fire, and hate can always turn into love. Lucy hates me. She especially hates how much I want her.And sweet h*ll do I want her. But she can't be bothered to even give me the time of day. I should give up the chase, but I can't.It's more than a spark between us. It's a bonfire. Fate rolls the dice and lands Lucy right where I want her. She needs my help, and I need her.One taste, and I'm lost. I'll do anything to have her and to hold her. To make her mine. Lucy Levi drives me crazy, and not the good kind of crazy. He's smoldering hot and so handsome, it's downright dangerous.A hotshot firefighter, he nearly sets me on fire whenever he's around. Perhaps it's an occupational hazard.He teases me every chance he gets and tempts me to let down my guard. I definitely don't need a man. But Levi's more than a man. He's a man on octane fuel -- pure masculinity practically oozes from his pores.One night of weakness, and I tumble into his fire. It's more than desire. It's how I feel when I'm with him -- safe and protected. I never want to let go.
