Publisher's summary

My new neighbor ticks all the right boxes.

Tall - check.

Muscular - check.

Tatted - double check.

Until he opens his mouth.

Adam is grumpy, rude, and obnoxious as hell.

And I really should tell him exactly where he can shove his insults.

Instead, I bite my tongue.

He intrigues me, and I can’t fight the need I have to find out what caused the pain so evident in his dark eyes.

Soon the thick, hungry flames surrounding Adam consume me.

I should’ve known better.

Because when you play with fire, you’re bound to get burned.

Sunshine and the Grump

I love this book so much. I have to add Adam to my top 5 favorite male lead characters ever. There's so much I want to say, but I don't want to post spoilers! Just. Get. This. Book. You won't regret it.

2.5 Stars


A.K MacBride was a first time author for me and I’m not really sure if Slow Burn was a good first time book for me to see her writing abilities. Slow burn was definitely used in every sense…

Normally I don’t have any problems with slow burn books, but not only was it a slow burn, but I seem it was even slow getting to the issues at hand. It was so slow that I almost gave up several times. This was a enemies-to-lovers Insta-love, full of emotional torment and light humor romance.

I’m not really sure what didn’t work for me in this story, because it wasn’t the chemistry between Adam and Maddie, because that they had, and the plot was good when it finally got there and I felt their pain they both were experiencing, but there just was something missing for me to give this book a higher rating then I did. Maybe it was just me or the mood I was in, but again I just wasn’t really feeling it.

Audiobook review: Kelli Tager and Gregory Salinas both did a great job with the narration.

A grumpy guy, a dog & a dancer

Another cute story in the series. Adam lost his wife in the fire that scarred him. He’s moved to Clearwater Bay for the solitude, that is, until his neighbor’s yappy dog keeps escaping and coming over. Maddie returned home after a dancing career didn’t work out. Now she’s stuck working at her family’s hardware store. Her new neighbor has intrigued her…if only he wasn’t such a grump. Both Adam and Maddie have to face their fears before they can truly move on. Can they do it together and heave their HEA?
