"Slow Burn heats up fast"
Maggie LaRue suffers amnesia, not able to recall her name
or why or how she ended up trapped by a fire in an
abandoned paint warehouse. In fact her first memory is the
arms of the hunk that rescued her. Her second thought was
how she feels so safe in his arms and for that matter
whenever she is near her hero paramedic Cale Perry. Cale provides Maggie a place to live while she recovers her
memory. He finds having her around is not easy on his
libido as he wants her and believes she feels the same way
too. However, both worry what will happen when she
remembers her life before Cale to include possibly a
husband and a family. Though readers will question Cale's altruism in providing a
refuge for Maggie, fans will enjoy this hot entry as the
couple burns up the pages even when they just talk. The
story line delivers a heated tale, but it is the growing
relationship between the lead duo as the pair struggles
with desire and love and fear when they learn the truth
about Maggie. Book one of Jamie Denton's "Some Like It
Hot" trilogy is a strong opening gamut. Harriet Klausner

SummaryIs it getting hot in here?
Maggie LaRue doesn't know who she is. All she remembers is
passing out in the arms of a gorgeous man. When she
awakens, she's in a hospital, apparently lucky to be
alive. Injured in a fire, Maggie doesn't know her real
name or what she was doing in an abandoned paint warehouse
all by herself. The one thing she's sure of? Her
overwhelming desire for sexy paramedic Cale Perry...
Determined to help Maggie, Cale offers to let her stay
with him until her memory returns. But staying platonic
isn't as easy as he'd hoped...and it's definitely not what
his body wants! He knows he should keep away from her,
that he'd only be taking advantage of her. But if he's
right, Maggie's feeling the heat between them, too...
