Keeneston’s favorite fireman is back, and this time, things are heating up literally. In Forever Burning (Forever Bluegrass #22), Kathleen Brooks delivers another round of swoon-worthy romance, this time featuring Colton Davies, the town’s ultimate bachelor, and Cady Woodson, the badass bourbon master distiller who’s been hiding her crush behind barrels of Kentucky’s finest.
Colton’s living the dream, or so he thinks, until the sight of Cady dancing with someone else turns his cool bachelor vibe into a full-on firestorm of jealousy. Suddenly, the girl next door is looking less like a buddy and more like the woman he can’t stop fantasizing about. And let’s be honest, who wouldn’t after seeing him smolder on the Fireman’s Calendar?
Cady’s no damsel in distress, though. She’s too busy making bourbon history to chase after a guy who’s never seen her as anything more than a friend. But when suspicious accidents happen at her distillery, guess who’s the first to show up, hero complex and all? That’s right, Colton dialed up to ten with his rescue mode.
This is a classic slow-burn romance with all the teasing tension that makes you want to shake the characters and yell, “Just kiss already!” But when the flames finally ignite, it’s everything you’ve been waiting for. Sweet, sultry, and oh-so-satisfying.
Beware of unexpected fire hazards like Colton’s smile and Cady’s bourbon-fueled determination. The mystery angle adds just the right amount of suspense, so if you’re here for more than just the romance, you’re in for a treat. Plus, there’s enough small-town charm to make you want to pack your bags for Keeneston.
So, if you’re in the mood for a friends-to-lovers romance with a dash of mystery and a lot of heart, Forever Burning should be your next one-click. But don’t say I didn’t warn you once you start. You won’t be able to put it down. Happy reading, Romanceaholics!
