Book Review: Light Up The Night by Weston Parker

Searing Saviors Book 1

Reckless. That’s what they call me.

I rush into burning building to save lives, and I wish it was for a just cause.

It’s not. It’s to prove that I’m worthy of love.

A messed-up knee, and my dreams of being in the NFL are gone.

I’m fearless when it comes to fighting back death. That’s not what messes me up.

It’s living that gets me.

The last thing I need in my life is a woman, no matter how bad I want one.

And yet, this one has me pacing the floor.

The single mom who owns my crew’s favorite restaurant is sweet, loving, and hot.

It’s not that easy, though. She’s lost too much in her life to give out free chances to men like me.

But I’m not asking for a chance.

I’m taking it.

Every Good Girl Deserves a Bad Boy. ~ Weston

This is a stand-alone story in a series of firefighters at the same firehouse. Enjoy the HEA!

My Review:

Hayden’s a firefighter with a need to do what’s right, even at the risk of his own safety. Mel is a single mother who’s afraid of losing another person she loves. How do these two opposite lifestyles fit together? With a whole lot of angst, drama, and growing pains. There were moments that were unbelievably cheesy, but the rest of the story is just so stinking cute it’s easy to overlook that fact. And, yes, I realize ‘cute’ and ‘cheesy’ are not words commonly associated with bad boy stories of any kind, and yet they fit perfectly here. Especially when you add in the “Kylee factor”. This precocious five-year-old ran away with the show and led me on a merry chase. I’m hoping we’ll get to read about some more of Searing’s first responders in the future. I received a complimentary advanced copy of this book from the author.
