If You Can't Stand the Heat . . . by Joss Wood digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

Living on the edge used to make wild-card war reporter Jack Chapman feel alive. These days he needs some time-out before he burns out. So what better distraction than delectable pastry chef Ellie Evans? She's oh-so-tempting—and sleeping right next door! Perfect for a short-term fling! Ellie knows it would be beyond stupid to fall for a guy with ice in his veins who's always on the move. But daredevil Jack is even more irresistible than her death-by-chocolate cake . . . and saying no has never been Ellie's strongpoint!

“This was interesting. I liked that it wasn't set in the usual place of England or U.S.A and I liked the hero and heroine respectively. Jack bought out her fierce side and she grew a back bone which I liked.”
