About this listen

Even good girls make mistakes.

Kira Taylor was shocked to meet her boss's handsome, long-absent son and find him even more lethal in the flesh. He'd always been just a face in a photo - and nothing had prepared her for the way they clashed and burned when they finally met.

Blake Carter returned to America for a reunion with a father he hadn't seen since he was ten. But Blake had never bargained for falling for his father's sexy secretary, the beautiful and impressionable Kira Taylor…

Blake caught one glimpse of the gorgeous beauty from across the crowded room and felt the primal taste of desire like he'd never known. The sparks were more antagonism than attraction on her part as they collided over differences about the way he treated his father. But Blake had very strong persuasive skills when it came to bringing the vulnerable Kira to bend to his carnal passions…

Loved this story

I enjoyed the storyline. I was irritated with the female character as she seemed weak. But as the story develops it becomes clear she is trying to protect herself. All in all, I loved it.

Wow... Just wow!

I read Burned By Passion a few months ago and really enjoyed it! Blake and Kira's sex scenes were very steamy and their love was tender and beautiful. I enjoy reading about those push and pull love stories with a little angst... and Burned By Passion definitely delivers. What Kira needed, Blake provided with everything he had--- all his heart and soul. Very sweet story. I also liked Blake's father Bretton and his love for and support of Kira. I enjoyed this book so much that I couldn't wait to listen to the audible edition. I was blown away by Pepper's read!

Pepper Laramie does an amazing job bringing ALL the characters in this passionate romance to life. Pepper's delivery of Blake's lines is flawless! She captures his British accent extremely well. She injects a wonderfully distinct energy into each character's dialogue; She almost makes it seem like a different person is reading each part! Wonderful job, Pepper! Dez Burke's words + Pepper Laramie's voice = Literary Gold!

I can hardly wait to hear Pepper read Skin Deep-- my favorite Dez Burke romance. THAT will be literary platinum!!

Need more sex

I have listened to Gents 4 Ladies on audible.com and it had more sex scenes than this book. And Gents 4 Ladies is shorter. Please don't make another character like Kierra. I mean really. You have a young lady in her 20s who is pregnant and you have a rich man marry her, and she waits for four months to have sex with him again. Not believable. I grew up poor, and on food stamps. I don't know anyone in our community that will not jump and chance to marry their "baby daddy", and he was rich. I think more time should have been spent on more of the sex when they finally had sex again.

I liked it

The story was to short. Needed a long plot with more drama, romance and twist.

Burned by Passion

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would very recommend the book and the audiobook to my friends. This book was AMAZING while listening with the book.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Burned by Passion?

That Kira FINALLY got to say I Love you to Blake

Have you listened to any of Pepper Laramie’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

This the first time I had listen to Ms.Laramie performances and I got to say I like what she was doing when she was narrating Burned by Passion.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Hell ya, this book and the performance by Ms.Laramie and the writer Dez Burke are AMAZING keep up the Great Job.

Any additional comments?

Just read this book and listen to the audio. I love it why don't you.

Burn Me...

What did you love best about Burned by Passion?

I absolutely loved Blake and Kira's story. The flow was just right. Nothing happened to fast and nothing dragged out.

What other book might you compare Burned by Passion to and why?

I would compare it to Because this is Forever by Lena a Hart. The stories aren't exactly similar other than Kira not initially telling Blake that she pregnant.

Which scene was your favorite?

My favorite scene was when Blake was finally able to convince Kira that he wanted them to be together because of love and not because of any obligations.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Burned by Passion works for me.

Any additional comments?

I've said this on several occasions when reviewing books by Dez Burke. Dez Burke is a very talented author. I have read just about all of her books and I plan to remedy that within the next couple of months.
