As the only female firefighter at Engine Co. 6, Alexandra Dempsey gets it from all sides: the male coworkers who think she can't do the job, the wives and girlfriends who see her as a threat to their firefighter men, and her overprotective foster brothers who want to shelter their baby sister at all costs. So when she single-handedly saves the life of Eli Cooper, Chicago's devastatingly handsome mayor, she assumes that the respect she's longed for will finally come her way. But it seems that Mr. Mayor has other ideas... Eli Cooper's mayoral ratings are plummeting, his chances at reelection dead in the water. When a sexy, curvaceous firefighter gives him the kiss of life, she does more than bring him back to the land of the living; she also breathes vitality into his campaign. Riding the wave of their feel-good story might prop up Eli's flagging political fortunes, but the sizzling attraction between them can go nowhere; he's her boss, and there are rules that must be obeyed. But you know what they say about rules: they're made to be broken. Contains mature themes.… (mehr)

Playing with Fire by Kate Meader
2nd book in the Hot on Chicago series. Contemporary romance. Can be read as a stand-alone.
Alexandra is a firefighter. She’s used to the abundance of male testosterone in her job having already survived growing up with three brothers. Mayor Eli Cooper sees past the gruff exterior that Alex portrays to the sexy woman underneath the uniform. And he absolutely wants access to everything under that uniform.

A hot romance with a touch of domination and sexy underwear for Alex. The power play was fun. Eli was honorable and Alex was quick to judge a couple of times but in the end together they were combustible.
I did love that Alex is a healthy size 16 with a lot of muscles from her firefighting requirements and Eli sees her as super sexy and beautiful. She wears the size and clothes with superb confidence.
4.5 ( )

There is nothing more passionate than ego, blackmail and competition. Alexandra and Eli found that out first hand. Despite a contentious relationship they can't keep their hands or thoughts to themselves. I liked Alexandra. She spoke her mind, stuck to her beliefs and loved her family. Eli took a while to grow on me. As I got to know him more, I started to realize that he kept his guard up to protect himself from the traumatic blow he was dealt as a child. Kate Meader picked the perfect name for a battle of will, heart and dominance. Playing with Fire lives up to it's name. Received an ARC of this novel in exchange for an honest review. ( )

An absolutely awesome read that gets 5 huge stars from me!! Alex and Eli's story has been building and it finally flares to life in this story. The always direct and sassy Alex has met her match in Eli and the sparks that sizzle between them can no longer be contained. With humor and witty banter between the characters, the enemies to lovers story is pure perfection. Can't wait to read the next in this fantastic series.

I highly recommend this one! ( )
