Stories to heat up the holidays
4 stars

Blaze bring together another set of three red-hot stories all about sexy firemen and what they want for Christmas.


ALL HE WANTS FOR CHRISTMAS by [a:Jill Shalvis|22370|Jill Shalvis|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1532461001p2/22370.jpg]
EMT Dustin Mauer and tough firefighter Christina Lewis had one wild and sexy night together but now she'll have nothing to do with him. All Dustin wants for Christmas is to make Christina realise that she's madly in love with him.

This was a cute story with likeable characters and some delightful festive romance.


MY GROWN-UP CHRISTMAS LIST by [a:Jacquie D'Alessandro|47598|Jacquie D'Alessandro|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/f_50x66-6a03a5c12233c941481992b82eea8d23.png]
Sexy firefighter Brad Griffen was head over heels for flower shop owner, Antonia Rizzo, the first time he laid eyes on her. Too bad that she has one rule: she doesn't date firefighters. But Brad is determined to change her mind - even if it takes all night.

This was my favourite story of the three as it was romantic, sexy and left you with a nice warm glow after reading it.


UP ON THE HOUSETOP by [a:Jamie Sobrato|299603|Jamie Sobrato|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1267323080p2/299603.jpg]
Dr. Lorelei Gibson was always the geeky girl at school yet she still had a crush on Ryan Quinn - the most gorgeous guy in school. Now all grown up, Lorelei is mortified when Ryan - now a hunky firefighter - rescues her from her rooftop, where she gets stuck, half naked. But that's until she realises that perhaps she has a chance for a little sensual payback.

This wasn't my favourite story of the anthology as it felt a little light without much depth or emotion. It was still a good enough read and easy to finish.


I always seem to feel that the festive content in these anthologies is a little on the light side - and this was the case in these stories, too. Having said that - the stories are readable, fun, sexy and will take your mind off the chaos of Christmas for a little while. 4 stars.
