My review:
Burning Up
is the sixth book in The Prescotts series by Tara Wyatt. I have not read every book in the series, but
I have not had any problems reading them as stand-alones. The author does an excellent job of including
any history that is needed to follow the storyline. The NYFD team is charming, and I loved seeing
the characters from previous books. The
storyline was straightforward with low angst and the main characters were
likable.
FDNY Captain
Noah Prescott blames himself for his father’s death and as the oldest child, he
assumed all the heavy responsibilities for his family. He is a helper and cannot turn anyone down
when they need help. He realizes he
doesn’t have the time or the ability to have a romantic relationship. Noah knows he should stay away from Felicity
because he knows in the end, she will be hurt but he can’t ignore the
connection between them.
Divorced for
over a year, Felicity Hawthorne teaches high school English and after Noah and
his team rescue her from a stuck elevator, she never expects to see the
handsome firefighter again. Attending a
charity auction with her friends sounded like fun except seeing Noah being bid
on at the auction dimmed the evening until her friends help her win him. He was the perfect man to help her practice
dating again, but she would rather date him.
This was a
fun, entertaining, and easy-to-read book. The characters and the issues they
faced were real-life which made them easy to connect with. I loved watching Felicity grow and become
more confident in herself. She had spent
years with a man who had never put her first, so she had to learn who she
really was after her divorce. Noah was a
wonderful guy but had no boundaries for his friends and family. He had to take a stand and do something for
himself for once. They were a great
couple and I look forward to seeing them again in future books. The next book is Hudson’s, and it looks like
it will be just as good as this one.
I received
an ARC and I am voluntarily leaving a review.

Blurb:
We have to burn to rise from the ashes.
Nearly two years after her divorce, Felicity Hawthorne is ready to date again. At least, she thinks she would be, if the idea of dating wasn’t so freaking terrifying. But then she wins a date with sexy, swoony firefighter Noah Prescott at a charity bachelor auction, and everything changes.
FDNY captain Noah isn’t looking for a relationship. Since losing his father as a teenager, he’s spent the past twenty years shouldering heavy responsibilities, and he knows he doesn’t have the time or energy to be anyone’s boyfriend. But one date with sweet, charming Felicity has him wanting things he shouldn’t want.
Which is why Noah suggests Felicity practice her budding dating skills with him. He wants more of her, and practice dates are as close as he can come to having her in his life without hurting her. But then dating practice turns into practice of another kind—the kind that involves moans and sighs and orgasms—and Noah knows he’s going to fall. Hard.
