Kitty's Book Spot!

      BLURB:    He’s infuriating…   Dempsey Jones has been a nuisance my entire life, the straight-laced Boy Scout grown up to be a  firefighter,  of all things. He was the one helping kittens out of trees and old ladies cross the road while I was lighting cherry bombs with my best friend in abandoned buildings, and now that we’re all grown up—even if my Dad doesn’t agree—he’s still just as annoying.     She’s impossible…   Taite Ridley has been a constant my whole life, the curly haired mischievous daughter of the police chief, charming and devious and alluring. She was wild in ways I never dared to be and too big for our little town. But she’s here, a small town cop, and I can’t avoid her, even if I wanted to.     And I don’t want to.     It’s like mixing fire and gasoline and when these two collide, someone is gonn...

Taite and Dempsey have known each other since they were children.  Been friends and enemies alike.  The new dynamic between them has been leaving them both unsettled.  Dempsey wants to try for a future with Taite.  He knows that the animosity she shows toward him and the fire department is part of the job.  Behind closed doors, there are secrets that may get out.  Sooner or later someone in their small town will know. This was such a great story.  Kind of a slow burn, (pun not intended - but I'll take it.)  These characters are such a great balance for one another.  They have a lot in common, they both have this electric attraction with such intense heat.  It seemed like it was a only a matter of time for this compelling story to find them on the same page.  I give this story a 5/5 Kitty's Paws UP! ***This early copy was given in exchange for an honest review only.
