When firefighter Jackson Donovan's past comes roaring back to life in the form of not-so-damsel-in-distress Becks Benning, the last thing he wants to do is relive old times. No matter how tempting she makes it seem...

Yet when Becks runs into trouble, he grudgingly agrees to let her stay with his family. And the more time he spends with this grown up, smokin' hot Becks, the more he wants her in his bed - and his future.

For Becks, Jackson hasn't changed at all. He's still honourable, sexy as sin... and completely unapproachable. But there's more than one way to get to a man's heart. And now that she's found Jackson again, Becks isn't letting him go.

Want more sexy romance? Don't miss the rest of the Play-By-Play series which began with The Perfect Play. And check out Jaci's gorgeously romantic Hope series beginning with Hope Flames.

I just finished listening to the Audiobook of Hot to The Touch by Jaci Burton. It’s been a long time since I last read books by the author, and since is the first in a new series I decided to give it a try.
It’s definitely a Hot romance. Jackson is a sexy, well respected firefighter and when he rescues a women in a fire, he discovers she’s someone he knew from his childhood. A time in his life that he doesn’t like to remember, so he prefers to keep the past buried.
Beck is a tattoo artist and loses her shop to a fire and thanks to Jackson and his brothers, they let her stay with them while she can pick back her life. They’re childhood friends and have a special relationship even though it’s been years since they’ve seen each other. They were all very close. Topics discussed in the story are about the homeless and the Foster care system.
The guys, their family and Beck are fun, generous and have big hearts, and I loved their interaction and banter.
Jackson and Beck have great chemistry, but for Jackson it’s going to take some time for him to heal some old wounds.
