Hot Stuff by Max Monroe Blog Tour

Have you ever seen a fireman who’s so insanely sexy you’d actually consider DIY-ing a little at-home arson just so he’d show up at your front door?

Dramatic, I know, but hear me out.

Chiseled hot body, bright blue eyes, and the sexiest smile I’ve ever seen—the first time I saw Garrett Alexander in my exam room, it took everything inside me not to do something crazy like mount him during his yearly physical.

Not only is he a total babe, but he’s charming, hilarious, and the kind of single dad that would make your ovaries explode—the total freaking package.

I know you’re probably wondering, What in the heck are you waiting for, girl? Go get yourself a fireman!

But, see, there’s one teeny-tiny (read: huge) problem—if we got together, we’d have to keep our relationship a secret.

I know. Who even am I? Some heroine in a freaking forbidden romance novel?

Let me guess, now you’re probably thinking... Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Don’t do it, girl. Don’t fall for the sexy, off-limits man. It’s not worth it.

Well, too late. I already went and did it.

And I have a feeling this fire of ours is going to go up in a big, mushroom-cloud-worthy, ball of figurative smoke.

Suddenly, the door to Garrett’s room cracks open, and he peeks his head out, damn near startling me into another dimension.

Noticing my hysterical jump and defensive pose, he quiets his voice to a whisper. “Sorry to, um, startle you. I just… I’m ready.”

“Of course. Yeah.” I nod feverishly, follow him into the room, and take a few discreet, calming breaths to slow down the rate at which my heart is sprinting inside my chest. Honestly, for a woman who did gymnastics in her childhood, you’d think my cardiovascular system would be able to tolerate adrenaline a little better than this. A minor startle from a hot fireman and I’m panting like a dog in heat.

His gown covers everything, but it’s strangely anticipatory and it feels like I’m seeing more of him than I should. It’s weird and odd and completely irrational. So, I shut my eyes for a brief moment and force myself into doctor mode.

“Just take a seat on the exam table, please,” I instruct him with a gesture of my hand.

He does without question.

Then I start my assessment.

First, his vital signs. Blood pressure, heart rate, respiratory rate, and temperature.

All good. All within normal limits.

Next, with my stethoscope, I listen to his heart and lungs and abdomen.

Also, good. Steady, strong, clear.

“Am I going to live to see another day, Dr. Lauren?” he asks once I finish a quick reflex check, smirking up at me from his spot on the exam table, and I can’t not return his expression with a grin.

“Yes, it appears that you will,” I answer and make a few notes in his chart. “Now, if you don’t mind, please stand up in front of the exam table so I can… uh… check… your… uh… testicles.”

Okay, Lauren. Be cool. Be. Cool. It’s just another day at the office, and Garrett is just another set of anatomy...

I am a huge fan of this talented duet of authors – and when they warn you not to read in public or a place where laughing is an issue... listen to them! This really is a very funny, sexy read and will surely bring some brightness into your life. We first met Garrett in Jake's book Single Dad Seeks Juliet, which I have to tell you is also an excellent read – but no need to read it first as it will not really affect this one.

Firefighter Garrett co-parents his 12-year-old twins with his ex-wife. Due to his firefighting career, he doesn't see them as much as he would like, but he is absolutely there for them when he does. This and the fact that he is super hot, do a lot to make him the kind of guy that deserves his happily ever after. And really, nothing he does ever changes that view of him.

Daughter of Garrett's captain, Lauren first meets him at his annual physical in her role as a doctor. Then he is invited to Thanksgiving at her family home (let's not mention the men's toilets incident!). The connection is strong enough that they agree to go on a date. And out of the date comes Fat Frank. This is such a genius first date, but an even more genius purchase, as now Lauren has a confidante who will never spill the beans – and Max Monroe can tell us how she feels without her just thinking them.

I loved the humour, the interactions with the twins, and the patience which Garrett shows to the very nervous to get involved Lauren. She is hugely fun too, and the care with which she gets to know the twins and their mum is perfectly done.

Feel good story from beginning to end – and I do recommend that you take up the kind offer of an extended epilogue when you get to the end, as it is fabulous. Thank you again for another great read!
