Heated (Most Wanted, #2) Reviews

4 HOT stars!!!
Heated is part two in J. Kenner’s Most Wanted series. In the first book, we meet three guys known as the Knights. One of them is Tyler Sharp.
Detective Sloane is on a mission. To find her friend, to make sure she’s safe, then to go back to Indiana. She loves being a cop. It’s her job to uphold the law. She doesn’t trust easily and it’s for good reason.
Don’t take anything for granted and don’t trust anyone. I guess that makes me cynical. But it also makes me a damn good cop.
To do this, she needs information. Information she can only get from Tyler Sharp. So she does what she has to do and seeks him out. She has this crazy attraction to him from the start. That wasn’t part of the plan, but its something she can’t help and certainly can’t deny.
He was everything I shouldn’t want and couldn’t have, and yet right then there was no denying he was exactly what I needed.
“You’re the prize, Sloane. And I’m in it to win.”
While ‘working the case’, Sloane figures she might as well have some fun. Give into Tyler. He brings out all these wants and desires that only he can fulfill. Things Sloane never dreamed of wanting or needing. As Tyler helps Sloane discover the truth about her friend, she learns more about him. Many good things, but also some not so good things. Tyler isn’t the perfect upstanding citizen. And Sloane is a cop. Tyler and Sloane burn together in bed, but thats all that can ever be between them… right? What happens when real feelings start to develop?
“I can’t get enough of you,” he said.
“You’re like oxygen. I crave you, I need you, I can’t live without you.”
“Oxygen’s explosive,” I teased.
“It most definitely is.”
Tyler Sharp… that man does things to me. He is domineering, an alpha male who pushes the limits in all things he does. He’s confident without being cocky and sexy without even trying. He doesn’t claim to be a great guy, but his actions speak louder than words. Even though he walks the line of the law, he has a good heart.
Sloane is a tough heroine. Always in control. As a cop, she thrives on that. Being in charge, doing what is right always. Her beliefs are so important to her. Being with Tyler makes her question who she is and what she wants out of life. I love a strong heroine and Sloane was definitely that.
J. Kenner is one author who I can always count on to turn up the heat. This is her hottest book to date! Tyler and Sloanes story was sexy, intense and suspenseful. It was a forbidden romance of sorts and had all the things I love in a book… so why not 5 stars? I’m not sure. The way it all came together made me feel like I was missing just a little something. I loved the characters, the story line was interesting, but the ending of the story felt rushed to me. Otherwise, this was a great read for me!
“I get what I want. And I don’t do things half way. You’re already mine, Sloane. The rest is just making the pieces fit together.”
“We’re moving so fast.”
“No,” he said gently. “We’re just moving at the speed of us.”

5 I want to play Stars!
In the second installment of the Most Wanted Series we meet Tyler Sharp. One third of the Knights, three men who may appear to be find upstanding citizens but appearances can be deceiving.
When Sloane arrives in Chicago with one goal. Find Tyler Sharp and she’d find the girl. She had little to go on, just a city, the name of a possible ex-lover and plenty of internet research that made her feel that there was far more than meets the eye.
On medical leave from her post on the homicide squad in Indiana, Sloane finds herself in Chicago trying to track down a girl for a friend that has gone off the grid. The first place she knows she needs to start is with the man that employed her at the strip club she worked at, Tyler Sharp.
We know very little of Tyler as this story starts off beyond that he caught our attention during Wanted as a friend of Evan’s who may have his fingers in few pies of the illegal variety. But these boys are smooth. For every con they have a cover, for every crime a tight locked alibi. But when Tyler finds himself face to face with a woman that has fully captured his attention, he’s willing to play a little game with her until he figures out just what she’s after.
Sloane is good at her job, it’s become her life. The only way she knows how to right the wrongs of the injustice in her past. Getting close to Tyler to get information is one thing, she can even make excuses for allowing him to seduce her, but falling for the man is something that should have her running in the opposite direction. Only, she can’t seem to force her feet to move. Rooted to the spot, bound in his arms, underneath him; Sloane can’t seem to resist this man’s pull.
J. Kenner does it again. Before I met Evan, I was certain that I would never fall more for one of her characters than I did for Damien. But nope. Tyler had me the moment he sauntered across the room. The moment he opens his mouth I was a goner.
“She’s just the woman I want, too.”
There is so much mystery wrapped around these three men. Sure they have the ability to be dangerous, the money they have is enough for that. The illegal dealings can often just be creative business tactic, but there is something there that makes you feel like for every wrong they do, it’s for some greater good. Maybe at one time it was to get rich... to gain power... but they have that now. I just can’t seem to think these three could be malicious criminals, white collar – sure, but not the kind of men that lurk in the shadows.
The connection between these two is instant. J. Kenner does amazing job transforming written tension into sparks that fly right of the page.
“You do something to me, Tyler. I looked at you and ...”
“And what?”
“And I want.”
Just as with Wanted, we get a bit of suspense, after all there is a missing girl that still has to be found. But both the romance and the bit of suspense of the plot flow effortlessly together. And as for Tyler, he is a bit of an alpha male that has the confidence to know what he wants and just how to take it. A playboy who at heart was just waiting for the right woman and a man who knew how to recognize her.
“I want a woman who burns with me. Who melts into me. Who fits into all my hollow places. That’s you, Sloane.
J. Kenner’s Stark Trilogy & Most Wanted Series are not to be missed. Since the MWS focuses a book on each Evan, Tyler and Cole – there are no cliffhangers. Each one of these books just seems to get better than the one before it. Cole is up next and I am torn as to where I think his story is going, we are given a bit of a glimpse into a bit of kink and more than one possible lady that might catch his eye. Something about him seems like he might be the wildest of the three to tame. But I do know that I just can’t wait for the final in this series to be released and to see if Cole can top Tyler & Evan. -
Maybe I had Days of Thunder on my brain when I read this novel. Before you ask me what the hell I’m talking about, I’ll tell you. The scene with the moonshine and commuting across state lines and telling stories reminded me of home, and when the female trooper gives Cole Trickle a thorough frisking and then rips open the top part of her state trooper’s uniform, all I could say is “Damn!” Yeah, this novel was like that. Only it was 416 pages of bodice-ripping good times. To the point that I was lost in feelings and sensations and moments and more intimate moments and heat. Yep, there was plenty of heat here, thus the title HEATED, and yours truly had the sensation of flushed skin on more than one occasion.
If I didn’t already have a weak spot for cops, this novel would have set me on edge and caused me to develop a twitch in my right eye. The twitch was there, though, and there was nothing I could do to stop it. Nor did I really want to. Maybe I need to get my wife a Halloween costume a wee bit early this year, but I suppose I could have worse problems.
Sloane Watson was one part cop, one part stripper, one part exhibitionist, and three parts curves and angles…and yeah, there was probably a holy wow moment or two or five. And Tyler Sharp may have had a rough life facing a past filled with serious consequences, but steel abs and a good heart made more than one woman drop her drawers. Even if he’s still a bit rough around the corners, he has laser-focused intensity and probably even a set of dimples to match.
The story may not have been wholly original, and the ending maybe even less so, but the characters made me want to stand up and scream for joy, or at least allowed me to forget who I was for a few hours or so. The sex scenes weren’t filled with crazy acrobatics, and the BDSM was probably a bit on the lighter side, but the fucking was as intimate and pleasure-filled as a hot fudge sundae. So, yeah, you may not want to read this novel in public, and certainly not if there are any children within 500 feet of you. Otherwise, you might find yourself being carried away by men in dark sunglasses.

Overall Rating 2.6 Stars
I received this book via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review, and I was super stoked when I got it. Story sounded great (compared to Sylvia Day’s Crossfire series…and books of the like). BUT…this wasn’t even close, IMHO.
way Way WAY off actually…
First, what I didn’t like…
1. The Insta-Love.
OMG.
It was so awful in this story. They were in love with each other after two days. TWO DAYS!
I get that not all books can drag out the romance, but two days, really? REALLY! Come on.
2. The story was too rushed (insta-love) and the big “mystery” wrapped up too fast. I think the story lasted over all of 5 days. If that…or maybe it was a little longer. I don’t know. I didn’t care about the ,Tyler and Sloan or their relationship.
It was all just too phony.
3. Sloan.
She was the worst. One minute she was hardcore cop…the next she’s playing the part of a striper.
Then she’s madly in love.
Then she’s angry with Tyler.
BAH! Don’t care! You’re dumb.
4. Tyler.
Tyler had the potential, I think, to be a super sexy alpha male. But, he just fell way flat.
Both main characters had zero depth and were just too, blah.
What I did like...
1. The writing.
This was written extremely well. Even though I did not care for the story or the main characters, the writing saved it from being a DNF.
2. The steam factor.
RAWR!
Conclusion…
So, after all of that, my rating is 2.6 but I’ve decided to round down to 2 stars.
I liked the idea of the story and the potential it held. Unfortunately, it just fell short and flat. The writing was done very well, and it was VERY steamy. But, I wanted more than great steam when I read this.
Maybe if I read the first book, I could have had some attachment to Tyler, but I seriously doubt it. There wasn’t enough of an emotional connected between the characters for me and I couldn’t get into their story.
Here’s my casting for Tyler…
-
2.5-3 STARS
I wanted to love this book as I felt like I waited forever and even had my heartbroken with a netgalley denial, lol! Book 1 in this series blew me away and I wanted more mystique, more bad behavior, and more dark alpha brooding...I wanted more EVAN, but unfortunately Tyler's tale just didn't live up to the bar that the previous book set.
With Evan and Angelina living happily ever after on the up and up, it is Cole and Tyler still dabbling in the businesses that walk the fine line of clean and moral. When a dancer from Tyler's club goes missing a Chicago detective comes to town to do a bit of undercover work. When Sloan Watson sets foot into Tyler's world she is prepared to do what it takes to find her friend...she just doesn't expect to enjoy the "work" so much.
A con and a cop...should be interesting right? well not so much...there is insta-lust and then insta-feelings of love. Tyler spends a lot of time teasing Sloan into sensual bliss while she begs him to fill her up at any moment. Both are horny as hell, and they get it on at any time they can, not so hot when it is so damn easy!
Overall there was a lot of stuff going on...personal revelations, illegal but not really bad activities, good versus bad, missing person searches, push-pull sex...just a bit too much. Tyler was seriously the most patient lover ever...I mean he seduced Sloan for hours...hey blue balls! Also for a cop so hell bent on justice...she only needed a bit of penetration and she was blind to the law!!!! For me, Evan still rules this tale...but I can tell Cole is gonna be fabulous! -

This is the second book in J. Kenner's Most Wanted series, and I really wanted to like it. I was also really happy to be given an ARC for it. I really liked the first one Wanted but I have to admit that this book did noting for me and it pains me to say that. I will also admit that I am one of those people that cannot not finish a book, it is just against my nature to DNF a book, however I have to admit that the thought did cross my mind a few times while reading this book.
This story is Tyler's story. He is one of the three Knights, the bad boys who don't follow the straight and narrow. Sloan is a cop on medical lead that is trying to track down a friend who has disappeared. She use to work for Tyler at the strip club he owns. She is determined to find her friend but even more determined to get to know the man behind the facade Tyler wears.
I will be the first to say that maybe this book just wasn't for me because it has received lots of good reviews but I felt no chemistry between the main characters and really I didn't really care much for either one. I had a real hard time with the instant love. Both of these characters were suppose to be one way but then they sleep together and then, Boom, Pow , Wow, their worlds are changed and turned upside down and will change all their beliefs and goals to be with that other person.
I was disappointed this one was such a miss for me but I was never invested in the characters, didn't even really like them much, and the story line just wasn't that compelling. I do however encourage you to give it a try if you like the first one, it may have been just me. -
3.5 - "Giving in to temptation is one of the few pleasures in life." Stars!
Heated is book two in the Most Wanted Series, and in this instalment we are given a look into the mind, body and business of Tyler Sharp. Detective Sloane Watson is in Chicago looking for information on an old friend/informant who has disappeared off the radar, her last known whereabouts Destiny, the club owned by Tyler, Evan and Cole.
There are monsters hiding under the most innocent of countenances, and if you don't keep your guard up, they will bite you. And hard.
Sloane lives her life by 2 truisms –
- Nothing is ever easy as it should be.
- No-one is what they seem.
With Tyler the boundaries of those two truisms are constantly pushed. Nothing is in black & white in his life, and grey is definitely the shade that most of his dealings err into, and because of this she finds that she is making allowances and twisting the truth to suit, and ultimately enable her to pursue the ‘Agreement’ they have.
God, I was a walking cliché. The strong woman, knocked out at the knees by a smooth man with a hard cock.
”You’re the prize, Sloane. And I’m in it to win.”
I have to admit that I found at times the story got a little lost in the constant sex-a-thon that Sloane and Tyler go on. There isn’t a room, wall, surface or open space that is off limits with the two of them, and I did find some of it a little ‘out of character’ for a by-the-rules detective to willingly agree to some of the things Tyler has her taking in part in after the space of a few hours/days.
”There is a thrill in being exposed. In being just a little naughty.”
”Will I find my way back to who I was? ... Do I want to?
Julie Kenner, has once again managed to give us a dominant, sexy, dirty man, with his own particular tastes in and out of the bedroom. Tyler likes to ‘push the boundaries’ and he does it very thoroughly with Sloane.
”I’ve had you,” ... “But I haven’t yet savoured you.”
”I don’t know where this is going, Sloane, or where it will end. All I know is that you’re in my head, you’re inside me.”
On the whole another enjoyable instalment from the Most Wanted series, and another sexy arrogant guy for us girls to fall in love with (it wasn’t difficult for this one anyway). Julie has carved out a tried and tested niche for herself, and this book definitely ticks all of the boxes that you would expect from one of her releases. I worked out who the ‘baddie’ was pretty quickly, but let’s face it the suspense part of the book isn’t really the main reason you have picked up the book anyway.
One niggle, and it actually got really niggly as the book progressed, was the constant and overuse of “yes, god”, “yes, god, yes” & “god, yes” before, during and after sex, I would have liked a bit of variety on that front!
”Sweetheart, I’ll wow you anytime.”
Great, but do we need to summon the Almighty each and every time as well!

This book was incredibly dumb for a variety of reasons. To me, both main characters (female and male romantic leads) came off as stage-five clingers with their psychotic and obsessive behavior. It surprised and befuddled that neither one of them was alarmed by how idiotic they were both behaving. It appeared as though neither one of them had a lick of common sense or hesitancy between them even though one was the youngest female to make detective in Indiana and the other was an astute, successful businessman/entrepreneur. How they both made it so far, respectively, in their profession astounds me given their lack of caution and observational skills. They both come on way to strong for me, it seems like they both play by the ABC rules: Always be crazier. She stalks him to his best friends engagement party, then breaks into his office. If I were him I would be quite concerned by her aggressive and obtuse behavior. But no, because he is crazy and stalkerish too. He tells her that he likes things a certain way and he has become quite obsessed with her. They are both crazy....dumb, and so is this entire book.

Sweet Jesus Tyler is so different from Evan and I loved it, the one thing all these men have in common in this series (alright a FEW things) is they're hot and cocky, "does she?" His attention stayed full on my face, and I thought for a moment that if I stepped closer, I would drown in those liquid eyes. "Funny," he said. "She's just the woman I want, too." I mean the boy oozes sex, "he laughed, which really wasn't what I was going for, and his smile was just a little too smug. "Oh, yeah," he said, in a voice that burned like slow, smooth whiskey. "I'm going to like effing you." I like that he sometimes tells her what he's going to do with her, and I'm sure Sloane appreciates it as well, "I'm going to eff you now," he said as he moved to the foot of the bed. "Because I really can't wait." I nodded, then gasped as he gripped me behind each knee and tugged me toward him so that my a** was right at the edge of the mattress." I loved Sloane the girl had a good punch, "Jesus, eff, that hurts," Tyler said, tightening his grip on me as he reached up with his free hand to massage his jaw." He's so bossy, and possessive as well, "bullsh**," he said, then kissed me so deeply I thought I might drown in it. "I already told you. I get what I want. And I don't do things halfway. You're already mine, Sloane. The rest is just making the pieces fit together." I'm so excited about the next book in this series!

Embora tenha dado as mesmas quatro estrelas a este livro, que dei ao primeiro volume "Desejo-te", tenho de ser sincera e dizer que gostei mais do primeiro livro.
Este é mais "mexido" a nível de acção. Se por um lado tem mais mistério e muitas revelações, por outro, tem muito mais sexo do que no primeiro, e foi exactamente por isso que gostei mais do primeiro. Tinha emoção, paixão e amor. Neste temos muita luxúria. O amor não veio primeiro como entre Evan e Angelina (personagens do primeiro volume desta série "most wanted"). Agora vocês pensam "Mas, mas... isto é um romance erótico, estavas à espera de quê Vera?" e eu respondo que estava à espera de mais amor em vez de luxuria, emoção, paixão e não apenas a vontade de saciar uma vontade. É óbvio que o amor haveria de aparecer no entretanto, mas enquanto isso não aconteceu, foi complicado sentir-me enlevada por este livro.

I only liked the main guy. The female heroine annoyed the shit out of me. And plus I didn't feel she was not challenging enough even for being a cop. She seemed like more careless person than caring
-
Better than the first one ( Ethan and Lina) but still not enough to suck you in the story.

5 “You saw me, you see me “ Stars
Holy fucking shit balls was this book good!
This book is about the sexy knight Tyler Sharp.
Sloane is a detective from Indiana who is looking for her friends friend Amy. ( Oddly I starting singing if you seek amy)
Tyler doesn’t have quite the dirty mouth as Evan but good god does he make a woman trip over her drool. He is romantic even when he breaks into apartments.
Every time I read a Kenner book I think I cant possibly fall in love with another man… and every time I am wrecked, I fall in love with every male character she introduces to the world.
Kenner has a way with her words that seduce you, wreck you and beg for more in the same breath
I imagine you taste like honey…and when I slide my tongue between your legs, I’ll lose myself in the sweetness of you. I wasn’t to watch your face as the orgasm builds inside of you. I want to feel you tremble beneath me. And when you finally explode, I want to hold you in my arms and let my kisses pull you back together”
What I thought was awesome in this book is you have :
the Detective who falls in love with a criminal.
A detective who turns into a stripper
A man who knows all of Sloan’s ugly secrets before she could even say them out loud.
And they loved each other fiercely and without abandon.. they burn together
This book didn’t end with a marriage, a ring or anything like that.
It ended the good ole saucy way with being tied up and spanked and adored
I am so ready for Cole.. he seems the hardest to break (Evan being pretty close in my mind) ---Tyler…not so much. After all, Tyler found the woman who fixed his watch.
-
This was an amazing companion novel! I quite enjoyed this more than the first book surprisingly. The romance, characters and story line were extremely fun.
Tyler Sharp is such a hot man. Not hotter than Evan to me, but his story was much more interesting. He is one of the three knights and makes sure he gets what he wants. He's only been in love once, but got hurt and unknowingly decided to avoid love. He had sex with women, but never took it further than that. I love how strong he was in his words and his passion for everything he wanted. He didn't play fair, but the way he played was equally phenomenal.
Sloane Watson is on a mission to find Amy, but decided she could help out her friend Kevin in finding out more on Tyler and the gang. She decided that seduction would be her best bet. She didn't plan on falling in love or being made and played. She is a headstrong woman, a cop with passion for justice however it's served. She denies herself true happiness because of her past and allowed her job to be her prison. I enjoyed her boldness and how she enjoyed playing up her sexuality with Tyler.
The romance was in sane! Tyler knew she was a cop, yet he still pursued her in turn falling for her. I loved the game they thought they were playing against each other, but how they both failed and fell in love. They played their games amazingly well, turning the other on, and exploring their sexual endeavors in the course. The sex was by far phenomenal with the two of them and it made the book more enjoyable to read. They wined, dined, seduced, played and the end game was won. The watch that Jahn gave Tyler was remarkable and made so much sense after reading this book. I loved it's symbolism and I'm glad Tyler did everything he could to keep Sloane by his side.
I loved that I got to read more about Evan and Angelina in this book. I was shocked about the ending -- like I thought she would let Charley walk, but she pulled that trigger for a second time and that made me love her SO much more. I love her more than I liked Angelina because she was bold and knew exactly what she wanted and got it.
I am excited to read Ignited and see if Cole's story is just as great, if not better than Evan's and Tyler's. -

I received an advanced readers copy of this book from Random House Publishing Group - Bantam via Edelweiss in exchange for an honest review. The expected publication date is June 3, 2014.
Heated is the second book in the Most Wanted series but can be read as a stand alone. I did read Wanted, the first book, but have no doubt that I could have still followed along if I hadn't. The first book was about Evan and this one is about Tyler and the next one I assume will be about Cole.
As warned in the synopsis, this book is intended for mature audiences and the pages heat up pretty much at the very beginning. In fact, there was so much sex that I wasn't sure if there would be a story to go with it. The chemistry and lust between Sloane and Tyler was off the charts. As I continued through the pages I was happy to see that a story does evolve to go along with their between the sheets action.
There was something that I really liked about Tyler but I can't really put a finger on it. Perhaps it was his bad boy, take charge attitude or maybe it was just his skills in the bedroom. Whatever it was I liked it. Although he was shady I still found him appealing. I didn't warm up to Sloane quite as much. Perhaps it was the things she was willing to do and the lengths she was willing to go to solve her mystery that did it. She was willing to sleep with Tyler to get information before she even knew that they had wild sexual chemistry.
The story itself was alright but I did think that the emotional connection between them was a little rushed and underdeveloped. I could feel the sexual chemistry but the emotional chemistry got a little lost in the heat as did the rest of the story. The ending was also a little rushed and a little anti climatic.
If you are a fan of books with a lot of steam, heat and sex you will probably really like this book. For me, I wished that the rest of the story was as strong. -
This book had the recipe to be a 5 star read. It had a sexy, rick, mysterious, alpha male who knows how to talk dirty and give it the heroine just as she likes it. The problem was it was to insta love for me. The story had hardly developed and Slone and Tyler were already in love. They saw each other from a distance and you knew exactly what the author was going to say next. The book also had pages, pages, and pages of sex scenes and I know this is an erotica romance but at what point is it too much. I think J. Kenner knows the answer to this question because she wrote the book and trust me it had way too much sex.
In the short amount of time that I got to spend with Slone and Tyler I connected with them. I just wanted more of their banter, more of them being together as a couple. I didn’t get that. They had things that they needed to work through, and yet they only really had sex and some pillow talk. There really is story to develop between the two of them so I’m not sure why it wasn’t elaborated on.
I don’t want to give up on J. Kenner I really don’t but I need to see more of a story in her books. As a reader I need more than just sex, I need a story.
If you like erotica romance and you only want to read a story that has 75% sex, and 15% story, this book is for you. If you want a story, I don’t suggest reading this book.

Love this series!
This story was hot and sexy! I really enjoyed these characters too. They are different but have such a great connection. Tyler is hot, sexy, and all alpha male, is a nice guy, but not completely upstanding. Olivia is hot and an officer . She is looking for her friend and needs the help of Tyler. That connection leads them into some steamy moments while they team up to try and find her friend. As they get to know each other Olivia is left questioning who she is or how can she reconcile things that she finds out. Really loved the story and the author. -
Dentro do género até está bom.
Tudo se desenvolve muito rápido, apaixonam se á primeira vista... Sabem logo que é para a vida toda.... São almas gêmeas....
Mas o género é mesmo assim
No meio da história há um crime que vão ter de desvendar e ajuda a tornar a coisa mais interessante -
I like it more then then I liked the 1st in the series. Tyler has many talents :>
-
Loved the story.
This book was HOT! I mean REALLY STEAMY. From chapter one through the end.
❤️ me some Tyler! -
Well, that was disappointing.
-
Opinião no blog brevemente.
-
3,5 ☆
No ha estado nada mal, más o menos como el primer libro.
Me ha gustado mucho los personajes de este segundo libro y la historia, espero que el tercero me guste igual o más -
I enjoyed this book more than book 1 because the intensity remained throughout the whole story. I am loving these alpha Knights!
You know those books...the ones where, when you close them, you let out a satisfied sigh? Yep, this is one.
Two words--bath scene. Hands down a hot scene. Well, okay, there were lots of hot scenes. -
An extremely hot, fast paced love story with an excellent push and pull between the main characters. Sometimes the heart wants what the heart wants and it was an awesome read getting there.
I really liked Tyler and Sloane. She is immediately attracted to him even though she’s trying to keep herself in check. It’s like an instant game between the two of them when they first meet because he is just as attracted to her. They have chemistry and heat right from the beginning and I loved it!
Tyler was rather fantastic. He was commanding and pretty much sex-on-a-stick but him letting his guard down and being honest made my heart melt. I really liked Sloane, she was brave, open to anything with Tyler (wink!), and determined. They both have skeletons in their closet and I thought there was a nice build in finding out the details. I really enjoyed the two of them coming together, the drama between them, and I thought the ending was really sweet.
I liked the element of mystery, it really pulled you in (the reason why Sloane went to Chicago in the first place). I thought it mixed well throughout the story but I wish it would have been a bit more in depth.
This is definitely erotica and HOT does not even cover it. Major steaminess, light BDSM, and lots of sexy time adventures. If you like a book with spice, you wont be disappointed – this one is scorching!
I liked that there was more Evan and Angie and that we got to see more of Cole. Can't wait to see his layers peeled back in Ignited, book 3. Great characters, an element of mystery, sexy times, and an excellent story. I definitely would recommend this.

3.5 stars!! I love J Kenner's books but for some reason this series just isn't doing it for me. I love the premise and actually love the characters but for me nothing is gelling well together. These books are extremely fast paced as each book is about one character in particular and I think that because J Kenner is used to trilogies and taking her time with that character build up and connection that part of her writing that I love is missing. This book will melt your kindles though, as usual J Kenner knows how to deliver steam and these two are combustible. This is Tyler and Sloane's story with the added bonus that Sloane is a cop. Bearing in mind this trio flit between the right and wrong side of the law this relationship should be doomed to fail, however the chemistry and attraction between them makes them both want to try and make it work. Both are going to need to be flexible and change so much but for them will the reward be worth it?

Needed more storyline and less sex.

Geez, this wanted series is hot! While the first book in the series was okay, this one was definitely better.
Tyler and Sloane were two awesome characters.
full review to come! -
I'm just going to slam my head down on the counter repeatedly. Though the writing was LEAPS and BOUNDS better than 50 Shades.

This is below average compared to Bared to you and even Fifty Shades of Grey was impressive than this book. The sex was too long and boring. Not my cup of tea.
