The Firefighter's Dilemma

Steli for the win! Stephanie and Eli are selected to represent firefighters in a First Responders reality show and contest. As co-workers, they've always worked well together, though always-in-control Stephanie never let Eli's crush take root. Until they're competing as a team in the wilderness, where they're always on camera except when they're tucked away in their shared cabin. At times I thought Stephanie was unbearably arrogant, but it's probably more that a dominant, controlling woman paired with a soft, squishy cinnamon roll just isn't my cup of tea. The reality show and competition part was a lot of fun to read, and I enjoyed getting to know Eli's family, especially his brothers. The writing is sparkling and the characters are well-developed. All the fun and games lead to a solid HEA, courtesy of Chief Jeffords. There's plenty of steam on the page, and lots of respect for first responders of all kinds. It's a delightful read, especially for those who like alpha females. I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book.

4.5 Stars This is the third book in the series. I really enjoy this series so much. It has such great characters and I love the sense of humor. Stephanie and Eli work together at the firehouse. Stephanie always has the drive to prove herself in a mans world, but she needs to realize her new crew is nothing like her previous one. Station 42 is full awesome men and women who truly have one another's backs.

This was a very fun read. Stephanie and Eli were easy to like and had great chemistry. The sparks & the steam really blaze between these two. This is a delightful read that put a big smile on my face. I am posting an unbiased review of my own accord.
