Blurb for DESPERATELY SEEKING FIREMAN:
Fire Captain Jeb Stone and incredibly successful press
secretary Nita Moreno have both been burned by love before. That's why neither
of them is looking for more than a few steamy nights of passion.
When circumstances find them stranded on an island together, babysitting a cross-dressing senator and the very pregnant wife of San Gabriel's most famous captain, they allow the sparks they feel to take center stage. But as their feelings grow, can they each allow the other past the barriers both have built to protect their hearts?

Nita Moreno believes her
life is exactly as she wants it when she meets eyes with an incredibly handsome
firefighter at the wedding of Melissa McQuire and Capt. Harry Brody. Three
years later though, her life has fallen apart. Filled with heartache, and with a
pain in the neck Senator to babysit, she’s confronted with a very pregnant
Melissa Brody and tagging along with her is that gorgeous fireman who she discovers is now
divorced.
Captain Jeb Stone hasn’t
forgotten the beautiful bridesmaid who made it quite clear she wasn’t
interested. Life takes a pleasant turn when he runs into her on Santa Lucia while doing a favor for his
buddy, Capt. Brody. Now his hopes of winning her over begin to take shape.
Just when I think that
Jennifer Bernard cannot possibly surpass her last fireman hero – Psycho, or any who came before – she
does and oh, how she does it in Jeb Stone. I want this man under my tree for Christmas.
One of the things I love
most about reading Jennifer Bernard’s Bachelor Firemen of San Gabriel series is
how real her characters are and how dreamily romantic they fall in love. Jeb
Stone has lived a loveless life the past five years. He stayed married to his
teenage love for the sake of his daughter but now feels he’ll never find what
he needs to heal his heart and allow him to face a brighter future with someone
at his side. That is, until he is reunited with Nita Moreno. The attraction was
instant at the wedding but it’s fortified two-fold when they meet again on
Santa Lucia. HOT Healing Sex seems to be a simple solution to scratch an itch
plaguing both Nita and Jeb but neither is sure how to handle what happens next.
Their attraction doesn’t cool but explodes as if gasoline’s been thrown on a
fire.
Jennifer consistently conjures
characters that touch our hearts with pain and heartache from the past, worries
about the future, and fear of rejection as they succumb to intense attractions yet we continue to fall hard for them every time. Nita and Jeb are no
different. They carry pain from the past, apprehension in going after what they
want, and fear of giving in to what they need. The characters in DESPERATELY
SEEKING FIREMAN are the story. We’re treated to the delightful Melissa McQuire
Brody as she attempts to pursue a story while on the verge of giving birth at
any moment. We experience the frantic over possessiveness of, the madly in love
with his woman, Capt. Harry Brody who wants to wrap her up in a bubble if only he
could catch her. Secondary characters delight us, making us smile and delight in their presence. And of
course, we meet and fall in love with the sexy Jeb Stone and beautiful Nita
Moreno who despite their fears and their priorities, soon fall prey to the most natural
and amazing emotion of all - LOVE.
I highly recommend
DESPERATELY SEEKING FIREMAN by Jennifer Bernard to anyone who has read any of
the other Bachelor Firemen novels but especially if you read the first, THE FIREMAN
WHO LOVED ME, as this gives you more of Melissa and the sexy Captain Brody. But if by chance, you haven't had a taste of Jennifer's HOT FIREMEN yet, then definitely pick up DESPERATELY SEEKING FIREMAN because you'll quickly be hooked and in love with Jeb Stone! I
recommend the entire series to everyone who loves sexy heroes, delightful
heroines, fun making secondary characters and stories that stay with you long
after the last page is turned. Jennifer does HOT FIREMEN like no other.
Happy Reading Everyone!
