Review for Let Me Burn by Carrie Elks: ★★★★

Let Me Burn by Carrie Elks

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


::..Reviewed for Red's Midnight Readers..::

I was very kindly given an ARC in exchange for an honest and unbiased review. I have given Let Me Burn 4 stars.

Let Me Burn is the first in a new series from Carrie Elks and it's off to a great start. Let Me Burn is a sweet, slow burn romance with well developed characters that I absolutely loved reading about. It was so well written that I found myself completely absorbed in the story from the very beginning and even though I found the first half was relatively slow, it was still well paced and the build up really draws the reader in.

There was drama galore to keep the readers turning the pages but it is still a light, romantic read, perfect for those cosy afternoons.

Blurb

She isn’t looking for love. He’s not planning on staying around. But when they meet, sparks fly…

As a big city firefighter, Lucas lives for his job. Forced to take extended leave following an accident, he returns to his small hometown to stay at the beach cottage his grandparents left him. The problem is, he’s not used to having so much time on his hands. 

After a broken engagement, Ember isn’t ready for love right now. Though her heart might be mended, she prefers to keep herself busy with her family and work; that way she won’t get hurt again. But she didn’t count on meeting a handsome firefighter with that dimpled smile. After Lucas saves her from one awkward situation too many, she can’t stop thinking about him.

Ember finds Lucas impossible to resist. And he’s determined not to let her. As long summer days melt into sultry, passionate nights what begins as a fling develops into something much deeper. Until the day Ember’s ex-fiancé returns to town and threatens to destroy the fragile connection that’s building between them.
