Summer nights are heating up for Beast Master Markus Ralston and his new mate, Bella.
Someone is setting fires in the adult entertainment industry of Haven City. Markus and Bella are hired to discover who wants to eliminate curtain show houses and nearby hotels. The exposure to nightly sensual sights couldn’t come at a worse time for the couple.
Markus has learned he’ll be departing in the days to come as per an agreement with his home nation, made so he could marry Bella. Not wanting to leave Bella with the possibility of learning she’s pregnant alone, he makes the difficult choice to abstain from the physical side of their relationship. A decision that tests their bond to the breaking point.
Navigating crude show house owners, the dangers of human rabies syndrome, and jealousy, Markus and Bella are in a race to catch the arsonist before another fire claims a business. All while fighting against desires that threaten to ignite their marriage into smoldering ruins or passion-filled nights….
5 out of 5 (exceptional)
FIERY NIGHTS TEMPTED is the fourth novella in the Gen-Heirs World: Bella and the Beast Master series. It does follow on from the previous two, so I would definitely recommend you read those first.
Things are hotting up between Markus and Bella, and I for one am over the moon for them. I did feel sorry for them at the beginning though. Markus has to return to Ruthenia for a while and leave Bella behind. He also knows she is ovulating, so in his wisdom, he decides they will abstain as he doesn't want Bella to find out if she's pregnant when she's on her own. Yeah, right. Like THAT'S going to happen! Not with these two. Plus, they get a new case that takes them to new places, leaving Bella insecure.
I loved this story! You should be ready to hear that now. I've loved all of them so far. But this one? Whether it's the steam rating or not, or whether it's the mystery side that was brilliant, I don't know. All I know is I was completely engrossed and read it from start to finish in one sitting. And that ending?!!! Gah!!!
Absolutely brilliant and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED by me! You will be left wanting more though, just saying. 😁
