Description:
Relationships. Firefighter Rafe Donovan avoids them whenever possible. He loves dating women, but he makes sure they know up front that he’s in it for fun, great sex and nothing more.
Fun. As an ER nurse and official caretaker of her disabled grandfather, Carmen Lewis doesn’t have time for fun. But Rafe has been there for Carmen–and her grandfather–time and again, and he’s clearly interested in her. She knows he’s a player, but she’s tempted by his charm and incredible body. And maybe a little fun isn’t a bad thing, as long as she keeps her heart away from this fiery game she’s enjoying with a very hot man.
Love. It doesn’t take Rafe long to realize that until now he’s only been playing at romance. With Carmen he feels searing passion and heart-tugging emotion for the first time. Now he has to convince Carmen that what they have together is the real deal.
Review:
Ignite on Contact by Jaci Burton is the 2nd book in her Brotherhood by Fire series. We meet our heroine, Carmen Lewis, as she is working hard as the lead ER nurse. Carmen works long hours, is respected by her co-workers and is very dedicated to her job; she also has the responsibility of taking care of her grandfather. Most of the local police & fireman all know and like Carmen, as she has met many of them when helping those who they bring to the emergency room.
Rafe Donovan, our hero, is a firefighter, whom we met in the first book and is part of the three ‘brothers’ who grew up together and helped each other survive their early years. Rafe, who lives next door to Carmen and her grandfather, always helps them whenever he can. Rafe enjoys dating women, but has no intention of ever having a relationship, he loves his life as it is.
Carmen thinks Rafe is a great guy, always kind, fun and charming, but she is not interested in dating, as she had a bad experience in divorcing her ex. Carmen feels she works long hours, and always has to watch over her grandfather, which allows no time to date, despite her friends trying to convince her to have fun. Rafe himself finds Carmen attractive, but knows she is distant. He will approach her about going out to dinner, and in a short time, they will enter a friend with benefits relationship.
Carmen was a great heroine, and you couldn’t help but like her. She allowed herself to open up to Rafe, and begin to enjoy their time together as a couple. Rafe was the perfect guy for her, as he was not only sexy, but also very caring and always willing to help her and her grandfather. Just when you think that things are going smoothly, and both falling in love with each other, it is Carmen’s past experiences and her worry over her grandfather’s health that will threaten their relationship. Can Rafe find a way to get Carmen away from the memories of her last ruined relationship?
Ignite on Contact was a sweet romance that was very well written by Jaci Burton. I loved Carmen and Rafe together, as they made such a great couple, and their chemistry was sizzling. We did begin to worry, as we rooted hard for their relationship to move to a permanent one. Jaci Burton always writes wonderful romances, and Ignite on Contact was another fabulous story that you should read.
