5 Lips for Into the Heat!!!

Five Lips at Two Lips Review for Into the Heat!

"...Into the Heat by Kate Burns is a beautifully written short story full of fine detail that drew me into the narrative. The plot unfolds slowly but with perfect cadence, and nothing seems rushed. I especially appreciated the rare glimpse we’re given of what it’s like for smoke jumpers heading into a fire when the natural instinct is to flee. Author Kate Burns portrays our couple, Delia and Coop, in a very realistic way. Action oriented by nature and profession, it seems perfectly natural they would hem and haw to avoid facing their feelings. Into the Heat is an excellent read and I highly recommend it." -Aviana, Two Lips Reviews

Amelia Richard at Ecataromance gave it four stars and said...

"With a firefighter theme for her Heatsheet, the talented Kate Burns takes readers into the world of those men and women who protect others and many natural creations. Her hero and heroine are both firejumpers, who find themselves battling dangerous situations plus the potent attraction between them. Ms. Burns has created appealing characters with Delia and Cooper, where readers slowly become privy to their innermost thoughts. Seeing how these two handle their yearnings was powerfully depicted, making their moments together almost as hot as the fires often surrounding them. This couple also proves how dedicated they are to their careers, as they never put themselves before their work as they know how every second counts when it comes to controlling a fire. The setting for this story is graphically visual, as I often felt as though I was right beside Delia and Cooper during every situation they faced, whether everyday chores or a threatening blaze. INTO THE HEAT is an engaging story where flames often erupt without warning."

Carly at Fallen Angel Review gave it five angels and said...

"This compact story delivers so much in such a short space it’s compelling to the highest degree. I learned a huge amount about smoke jumpers and the job they do. I have always respected this profession but now I am completely blown away by the whole idea of battling forest fires. This story highlights the work fire jumpers do but also shows that beneath the heavy gear, ordinary folks do this job. People who love and laugh and have hot, sexy lives! I particularly enjoyed the depth of emotion felt in these two characters. I could feel their relationship develop and I wanted them to succeed. When they were pulled into the fire, I wanted them to live. Kate Burns delivers an action-packed, sexy story that is sure to titillate, enlighten and entertain. I loved Into the Heat, it was my idea of sizzling on many, many levels!"

Into the Heat

I just love this cover!! So hot and sexy!

Into the Heat is available from PHAZE.

Being a firejumper is hot enough, but when Delia finds herself assigned to a remote cabin for two weeks with fellow firejumper Cooper Tallman, things begin to really heat up. She and Coop take care of all their assignments at the post while doing their best to ignore the growing attraction between them. They manage to keep their internal fires at bay until one afternoon when circumstances throw them into such close contact they can't ignore their smoldering bodies.

When duty calls they, of course, answer. But the forest around the couple is not the only thing ablaze and they begin to realize they cannot ignore their feelings for much longer--or can they?

After all, in a wildfire anything can happen. There are no guarantees, and not every flame can be extinguished.
