ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date February 23, 2024

Sam Faurier is in deep trouble.

Which normally wouldn’t be a problem for an elite firefighter with razor-sharp instincts and cocky bravado to spare. Except this time, his impulsive decision on a call got fellow firefighter, Lucy de Costa, into hot water, too.

Did he mention that he’s had an unrequited crush on her for years? Or that she’s the battalion chief’s by-the-book daughter?

Or that the call that got them both benched was actually arson, only Sam can’t prove it without help?

Lucy de Costa doesn’t break the rules, and she sure as hell doesn’t catch feelings for other firefighters. She’s worked way too hard to make her way up the ranks for that, no matter how sexy Sam Faurier’s smile is—or how hot his determination.

He’s convinced there’s an arsonist on the loose. Trouble is, she’s the only one who believes him. And she’s going to have to throw protocol and caution out the window in order to help him prove it.

Even if she finds herself unable to resist him—and how much he wants her—in the process.

But the more they uncover, the deeper the danger becomes. To catch the arsonist, Sam and Lucy will have to rely on their wits, their training, and each other.

Before it’s too late.

REVIEW: SIZZLE is the first instalment in Kimberly Kincaid’s contemporary, adult REMINGTON RESCUE SQUAD erotic, romance series , a part of the author’s multi-series set in Remington, North Carolina. This is firefighters Sam Faurier, and Lucy De Costa’s story line. SIZZLE can be read as a stand alone. You do not have to have read the previous series.

Told from three omniscient third person perspectives (Sam, Lucy, fire-starter) SIZZLE follows in the wake of a series of fires in Remington, North Carolina. Sam and Lucy have been suspended for disobeying a direct order but their suspension finds our couple searching for a possible arsonist, someone who is targeting our story line couple. As Sam and Lucy begin to uncover a possible connection, Lucy will be targeted, and our couple find themselves under law enforcement protection. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between our story line couple, and the potential fall-out as Lucy falls victim to a twisted mind.

The world building focuses on a number of fires in Remington, and a possible to connection to several more. Sam and Lucy previous disobeyed a direct order, and in doing so, were able to begin an investigation of their own.

The relationship between Lucy and Sam is one of co-workers that quickly turns into something more. Spending their suspension, working together to uncover the truth, our couple find themselves pulled into the aura that is one another. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and familiar secondary and supporting characters from all three of the author’s interconnected series. We are introduced to Lucy’s father Chief de Costa, and Captain Bridges.

SIZZLE is a story of mental illness and obsession, power and control, family and friendships, relationships and acceptance. The fast paced premise is dramatic, intriguing and captivating; the romance is seductive and intense; the characters are determined and dynamic.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release date July 11, 2023

Nothing rattles stone-cold FBI Agent Kai Roman. Not chasing down ruthless criminals. Not the grief of losing his wife years ago. Not even inadvertently being caught in the middle of a bank robbery.

Except Camila Garza is right beside him when danger strikes, and suddenly he’s the only person who can protect the off-limits beauty. No matter how much her older brother hates him.

And no matter how much he secretly wants her.

Camila knows she should hate Roman. He’s made it clear he doesn’t like her—or possibly anyone— one bit. But when they have to go on the run to save their lives, she begins to see past his icy exterior to the man who would do anything to keep her safe.

Including risk it all…

•••••

REVIEW:THE AGENT is the sixth and final full-length instalment in Kimberly Kincaid’s contemporary, adult INTELLIGENCE UNIT erotic, romantic suspense series -a spin off from the author’s Station Seventeen and Remington Medical series. This is FBI Agent Kai Roman, and Camila Garza’s story line. THE AGENT can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments or series is revealed where necessary. Camila is the youngest sister of Detective Matteo Garza (THE GUARDIAN 5).

Told from several omniscient third person perspectives including Camila and Kai, THE AGENT follows the building romance and relationship between FBI Agent Kai Roman, and Camila Garza. One year earlier, FBI Agent Kai Roman rejected the advances of Camila Garza having found himself on the outs with our heroine’s older brother. Fast forward to present day, our couple find themselves witnesses to a bank robbery, a robbery in which Camila will fast become a target of the robbers involved. In an effort to protect the woman with whom he is falling in love, Kai and Camila go into hiding but their return means facing down the people responsible. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Kai and Camila, and the potential fall-out the thieves target our story line heroine, and Camila’s brother refuses to accept Kai as a potential mate for his younger sister.

The world building continues to focus on the men and women of the Intelligence Unit of the Remington PD . Kai has a checkered past with Camila’s brother Matteo, and as such he is not welcome in Camila’s life but Camila’s life is in danger; she has been targeted for what she saw, and in this Kai becomes guardian and protector of the woman he loves.

FBI Agent Kai Roman has a history with Camila’s brother Matteo, and as such they tend to butt heads when thrown together. Camila is tired of the over protective attitude of her brother but understands that under the circumstances, her life is now in the hands of our story line hero. Both Kai and Camila are strong-willed and determined but Camila struggles with her attraction to a man she believes is too quick to run away. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and energetic secondary and supporting characters including many of whom we met in previous instalments: Xander Matthews (The Rookie), Matteo and Delia(The Guardian); Detective Shawn Maxwell, and Detective Addison Hale. Matteo Garza continues to be the proverbial thorn in Kai Roman’s side but Kai refuses to back down from the woman with whom he is falling in love.

THE AGENT is another character driven, and fast paced story of suspense and tension, crime and desperation, acceptance and love. The premise is intriguing and tragic; the characters are determined and dynamic; the romance is seductive and provocative.

The Renegade (The Intelligence Unit) by Kimberly Kincaid-a review

Amazon.com / Amazon.ca / B&N / KOBO /

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date April 7, 2023

He’s a younger man. An ex-Marine with a traumatic past. And he wants only one thing.
Her.

The last thing Jo Rossi expects when she goes to Remington for a make-or-break audition is to end up meeting an ex-Marine who’s more than half a decade younger than her and hotter than a freaking supernova.

And wait. Is he flirting with her?

The one and only time Jo has ever acted on impulse, she ended up with a surprise baby and a career she had to put on hold for six years. She needs to play it safe. Smart. And she definitely needs to not have a wild, impulsive, no-strings-attached fling so far from home.

Except Sawyer Knox is definitely flirting with her. And the more she gets to know him, the harder it is to resist…

Sawyer learned the hard way how short life can be. So when he sees Jo at the end of his bar, with her sassy smile and her mile-long legs, hell yes he flirts with her. He just didn’t mean to have a scorching-hot fling with her. Or to spend so much time with her after that.

He definitely didn’t mean to fall for her so fast or so hard.

Sawyer wants her. He wants it all. But Jo has to decide—can she risk her heart and go from fling to forever?

•••••

REVIEW: T HE RENEGADE is the fifth instalment and stand alone in Kimberly Kincaid’s contemporary, adult THE INTELLIGENCE UNIT erotic, romance series a spin off from the author’s Station Seventeen and Remington Medical series. This is bartender and former US Marine, twenty-six year old Sawyer Knox, and thirty-two year old, drama teacher/actress and single mother Jo Rossi’s story line. THE RENEGADE can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary. Jo is Frankie’s sister THE GRIFTER #3.

NOTE: The Renegade book five was released (out of order) after book six THE SAINT.

Told from dual omniscient third person perspectives (Jo and Sawyer) THE RENEGADE follows the quick building romance and relationship between bartender and former US Marine, twenty-six year old Sawyer Knox, and thirty-two year old, drama teacher/actress and single mother Jo Rossi. Jo Rossi is an actress, and her surprise pregnancy six years earlier meant the acting jobs were few and far between. Now divorced, Jo has an audition in Remington, where she will meet former US Marine and bartender Sawyer Knox, a man who stirs something deep within our story line heroine. Sawyer is several years younger than Josephine ‘Jo’ Rossi but watching from the sidelines, struggling with the ongoing affects of injuries suffered on his last tour of duty, pushed Sawyer to reconsider his own future, going forward. What ensues is the quick building romance and relationship between Sawyer and Jo, and the potential fall-out as Jo’s time in Remington comes to a close.

The relationship between Jo and Sawyer is one of immediate attraction but Jo struggles with their age difference and the possibility of a short-term affair. Sawyer Knox continues to do battle with issues of PTSD and the fall-out of a traumatic brain injury from an IED explosion that killed all of his friends and fellow teammates. Meeting Jo Rossi gave Sawyer hope for the future, hope that may be cut short with Jo’s prior commitments. The $ex scenes are intimate and passionate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

The secondary and supporting characters are energetic and familiar: Shawn and Frankie; Detective Isabella Walker, Detective Addison Hale, Detective Matteo Garza, Liam Hollister, Sawyer’s boss Kennedy, as well as Jo’s ex husband Derek, and their daughter Makayla.

THE RENEGADE is a quick read; a stand alone story of love and acceptance for two of the series secondary characters. The fast paced premise is captivating- the conflict is limited to personal choices and family commitments; the romance is seductive; the characters are fun and flirty.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date May 10, 2022

The fling she can’t forget, even though she knows how dangerous it is to get close. To feel.

But this enemy is as cunning as he is deadly and he’ll stop at nothing to get what he wants.

Addison and Ryan must outrun the shadows and outwit a killer.

No matter the cost.

•••••

REVIEW:  THE ROGUE is the fourth instalment in Kimberly Kincaid’s contemporary adult THE INTELLIGENCE UNIT erotic, romance series focusing on the men and women who work as first responders for the Remington Fire and Police. This is firefighter Ryan Dempsey, and Detective Addison Hale’s story line. THE ROGUE can  be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments is revealed where necessary.

 
Told from three third person perspectives THE ROGUE follows in the months after a one-night stand between our leading couple. Firefighter Ryan Dempsey’s younger sister Chloe believes she is being stalked, and Ryan is taking no chances with his sister’s safety. A call to the RPD finds Ryan facing his one-night stand, Detective Addison Hale, the woman who ghosted our hero the next morning. As Addison and the RPD begin an investigation into the alleged stalking, things begin to take an ominous turn when the RPD struggles to close on the deal. Meanwhile, Ryan and Addison continue to dance around their sexual attraction, an attraction that is quickly turning into something more. What ensues is the building relationship between Addison and Ryan, and the potential fall-out as Chloe’s stalker takes aim at someone else.
 
Detective Addison Hale doesn’t do relationships; never stays over night; refuses to give anyone a second chance but the wall around Addison’s heart is slowly crumbling as Ryan Dempsey continues to break down her barriers, one brick  and donut at a time. Ryan Dempsey has never forgotten about the one who got away but never expected to come face to face with Addison Hale when his sister’s life is threatened by a total stranger. Ryan doesn’t want to sit back and wait for something to happen, and in this, Ryan is about to place himself in the direct line of fire, in an effort to protect the sister he loves.
 
The relationship between Ryan and Addison is slow to burn as Addison walks away without looking back. Addison battles between head and heart having lived through a painful childhood and her parent’s brutal marriage, a marriage and brutality that has scarred Addison’s heart to her own happily ever after. Ryan Dempsey is determined to prove that Addison is worthy of love, as he slowly seduces our story line heroine. The $ex scenes are intimate and erotic, without the use of over the top sexually graphic language and text.
 
There is a large ensemble cast of energetic secondary and supporting characters many of whom we have met in previous instalments. We are introduced to Ryan’s sisters Chloe and Grace, as well as Addison’s sole source of support Master Ah-lam. 
 
THE ROGUE is a story of obsession and delusion, family and friendships, revelations and love. The fast paced premise is intriguing and captivating; the romance is provocative and hot; the characters are passionate and intense.

•••••••

REVIEW:THE GRIFTER is the third instalment in Kimberly Kincaid’s contemporary, adult THE INTELLIGENCE UNIT erotic, romantic suspense series-a spin off from her Station Seventeen and Remington Medical series. This is police detectives/undercover unit Shawn Maxwell, and Frankie Rossi. THE GRIFTER can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous story lines is revealed where necessary.

Told from third person perspective THE GRIFTER follows the second chance romance and relationship between former partners and lovers police detectives/undercover unit Shawn Maxwell, and Frankie Rossi. Eight years earlier a domestic call landed Detective Frankie Rossi in six months of recovery and rehab following a knife stabbing incident. Having partnered with Shawn Maxwell for close to two years, their personal relationship was about to implode, wherein Shawn filed for a transfer. Fast forward to present day, and Frankie’s ongoing narcotics case has brought her face to face with her former love, working together to take down a known drug kingpin. What ensues is the rebuilding romance and relationship between Shawn and Frankie, and the potential fall-out when their identities are discovered, and our couple are targeted.

Frankie Rossi struggled in the months following the knife attack including the ‘loss’ of the man that she loved but working together brought up too many memories, memories of which Shawn battled to control. Shawn’s past is about to upend his present, and with it, Frankie must decide where in Shawn’s life she belongs.

The relationship between Frankie and Shawn is one of second chances; a rekindling romance wherein eight years apart did nothing to contain their palpable sexual attraction. Shawn continues to struggle with his feelings and emotions, and in this, changes in his life are about to take hold. The $ex scenes are intimate, passionate, and intense without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

The secondary and supporting characters include Detective Isabella Walker, Shawn’s new partner Addison Hale; Detective Matteo Garza; tech and surveillance expert James Capelli, and Sargeant Sam Sinclair. The requisite evil has many faces.

THE GRIFTER is a story of an undercover and takedown, betrayal, vengeance, friendships, relationships and rekindling love. The fast paced premise is intriguing, engaging and entertaining; the romance is captivating and impassioned; the characters are dynamic and charismatic.

•••••••••

REVIEW: THE GUARDIAN is the second instalment in Kimberly Kincaid’s contemporary, adult THE INTELLIGENCE UNIT erotic, romantic suspense series-a spin off from the author’s Station Seventeen and Remington Medical series. This is Detective Matteo Garza, and math-whiz Delia Sutton’s story line. THE GUARDIAN can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty. Any important information from the previous instalments or series is revealed where necessary.

Told from several third person perspectives including Delia and Matteo THE GUARDIAN follows the sister’s best friend relationship between Detective Matteo Garza, and math-whiz Delia Sutton. Delia Sutton works in the financial department of the investing firm Cromwell A &M but Delia has discovered a discrepancy in the numbers, and the people in charge do not seem to be concerned about the information she found. An attack against our story line heroine finds Delia talking to the police but more specifically her best friend’s brother Matteo Garza, a man who doesn’t believe Delia’s attack is of significant bother until Delia recognizes one of the men currently under investigation, a man Matteo Garza is hoping to pin down for corruption and fraud. Going undercover at Cromwell A & M, Delia and Matteo battle their attraction to one another until Delia disappears, and Matteo struggles to find the woman with whom he is falling in love. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Matteo and Delia, and the potential fall-out as Delia becomes fodder in a game of cat and mouse.

Matteo Garza doesn’t do relationships having loved and lost years before. The appearance of his sister’s best friend stirs something deep within our story line hero but Matteo comes across as cold and aloof, ignoring Delia’s concerns and the potential threats against her life. It is only when Delia recognizes a man whom Matteo is investigating does Matteo pull his head out of his ‘proverbial a$$’ becoming both boyfriend and guardian to the woman with whom he will fall in love. Delia Sutton is a whiz with numbers, so much so that she is able to see numbers in colors, and any hint of wrong doing jumps out and stands up. Suspecting the people in charge are laundering money, Delia offers to help the police, placing a larger target on her back.

The relationship between Matteo and Delia is a sister’s best friend romance. Delia has been in love with Matteo for as long as she can remember but our hero has been oblivious to Delia’s attraction until time spend together places our couple together for the long haul. Matteo is a one-night stand kind of guy but one night with Delia isn’t enough for Matteo Garza. The $ex scenes are passionate and intimate without the use of over the top, sexually graphic language and text.

There is a large ensemble cast of colorful and energetic secondary and supporting characters including Xander and Tara (The Rookie 1), Isabella and Kellan (Skin Deep-Station 17), and several characters from the author’s interconnected series. We are introduced to FBI agent Kai Roman, and Detective Shawn Maxwell, as well as Delia’s bosses Peyton Willoughby, CEO Kent Cromwell, and mobster Nicky Bianchi.

THE GUARDIAN is a story of betrayal and vengeance, power and control, secrets, lies, friendships and family. The character driven premise is fast paced, realistic and imaginative; the romance is seductive and provocative; the characters are sassy, energetic and edgy.

Kimberly Kincaid writes contemporary romance that splits the difference between sexy and sweet and hot and edgy romantic suspense. When she’s not sitting cross-legged in an ancient desk chair known as “The Pleather Bomber”, she can be found practicing obscene amounts of yoga, whipping up anything from enchiladas to éclairs in her kitchen, or curled up with her nose in a book. Kimberly is a USA Today best-selling author and a 2016 and 2015 RWA RITA® finalist and 2014 Bookseller’s Best nominee who lives (and writes!) by the mantra that food is love. Kimberly resides in Virginia with her wildly patient husband and their three daughters.

ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date

Book one in the Intelligence Unit series, coming fall 2020. Also published in “Danger and Desire: A Romantic Suspense Anthology”.

Police recruit Xander Matthews has two goals: to keep his head down and his dark and dangerous past where it belongs—behind him. He never thought he’d see brash, beautiful ADA Tara Kingston again. But now they must catch a brutal killer before it’s too late.

••••••••

REVIEW: THE ROOKIE by Kimberly Kincaid is the first instalment in the author’s new contemporary, adult INTELLIGENCE UNIT erotic, romantic suspense series-a spin off from her Station Seventeen and Remington Medical series. THE ROOKIE focuses on ADA Tara Kingston and police recruit Xander Matthews. Xander Matthews was first introduced in Down Deep (Station Seventeen #5). You do not have to have read the previous series to understand or follow the current time line although several characters cross over for back story and cohesion.

Told from dual third person perspectives (Tara and Xander) THE ROOKIE follows in the aftermath of an attack against Tara’s confidential informant, an informant scheduled to testify against a gun running murder. Coming face to face with Xander Matthews, a man she once tried to prosecute for arson two year earlier meant facing down a man who stirred something deep within our story line heroine. As Xander and the Remington Police Force take the informant into protective custody, Tara finds herself falling for Xander Matthews. What ensues is the ongoing protection of Tara’s CI, and the potential fall-out as Tara becomes fodder in a game of murder and revenge.

THE ROOKIE is a character driven, fast paced novella that introduces the Remington Intelligence Unit. A detailed and intriguing story line THE ROOKIE is an impassioned tale of second chances, karma and love. The premise is suspenseful; the romance is seductive; the characters are spirited and inspiring.

Tara took a step toward him, her arms softening at her sides. “You’re a really nice guy, you know that?”
The urge to correct her was strong, but Xander bit it in half and said, “Just doing my job.”
“The standard answer when someone says ‘you’re a nice guy’ is usually ‘thank you’.”
The words carried none of her usual heat, filled instead with curiosity, and hell, Xander would take her ire a million times over the beautiful, wide-open look on her face right now. “Thank you.”
Another step, and now Tara was right in front of him, close enough to touch. “How come you don’t like being called a nice guy?”
His pulse flared, but that shit about old habits was real.
This time, he stepped toward her, cutting the distance between them to inches. “The standard answer when someone says ‘thank you’ is usually ‘you’re welcome’.”
“Oh,” Tara breathed. Her lips parted to release the sound as a sigh, and suddenly, there was nothing in the universe other than him, her, and the red-hot urge to claim her mouth. “You’re welcome, Xander.”
