    About this audiobook

    Savvy PR guru Kinsey Taylor has always defined herself by her career, not her gender. That is, until she moved from San Francisco to Chicago to be with her fiance, who thought she wasn't taking her "job" of supporting him in his high-powered career seriously enough and promptly dumped her for a more supportive and "feminine" nurse. Now, as the new assistant press secretary to Chicago's dynamic mayor, she's determined to keep her eye on the prize-and she certainly doesn't have time for men.

    But that all changes when she meets Luke Almeida, a firefighter as searingly sexy as he is quick-tempered. He's also the second oldest of the Firefightin' Dempseys, a family of foster siblings who have committed their lives to the service-if Luke's antics don't get him fired first. When Luke goes one step too far and gets into a bar brawl with the Chicago Police Department, Kinsey marches into Luke's firehouse and lays down the law on orders from the mayor. But at Engine Co. 6, Luke Almeida is the law, and he's not about to let Kinsey make the rules.Contains mature themes.

    Kate Meader

    Originally from Ireland, Kate Meader cut her romance reader teeth on Maeve Binchy and Jilly Cooper novels, with some Harlequins thrown in for variety. Give her tales about brooding mill owners, oversexed equestrians, and men who can rock an apron, a fire hose, or a hockey stick, and she's there. Now based in Chicago, she writes sexy contemporary romance with alpha heroes and strong heroines (and heroes) who can match their men quip for quip. Visit her at KateMeader.com.

      Very good story, would of appreciated a male narrator…so many to choose from to give Luke even more life!
    • 2/5
      The patriarch is strong with this one. If you like books that are about supposedly strong females who actually do whatever they can to satisfy the man in their life. Then this is the book for you. Otherwise I would skip it.

      Flirting with Fire by Kate Meader1st in the Hot in Chicago series. Contemporary romance. Kinsey is sent to Chicago’s firehouse Engine Company 6 as a PR rep to improve their wild reputation. Luke doesn’t agree that his firehouse needs an attitude adjustment but has no choice but to comply with the city mandate. Sparks fly in more than just the fires these heroes handle. Smart, spicy and steamy. And perfect for St Patrick Day celebration week.

      Flirting with FireChicago fire we watch on tv, this is a story of one firehouse there as a woman tracks down Luke.Kinsey is a press secretary for the mayor and he's avoided her phone calls. They also have a more personal relationship as well.Luke had been suspended and was ordered to stay away from the firehouse. She's looking for community work from him now...Luke's sister and brothers had followed their father into the same career and they all worked at the same firehouse.Story goes back in time to when his mother set the fire and he got adopted by the family and they raised him, keeping him out of foster homes.Story also follows Gage who's gay and he attempts to get a boyfriend...Hoped the story was more about the fire fighting techniques used in solving arsons, but it's more about politics and sex.I received this book from National Library Service for my BARD (Braille Audio Reading Device).
    • 5/5
      "It didn't get much more patriotic than sex in a Chevy on the Fourth of July. God bless America.""Kinsey?Can't move, she finally gasped out. Orgasm paralysis" OMG! Boy does Meader have a way with words. I'd give this book 6 stars it was so freaking awesome. I laughed out loud so often at Kinsey and Luke, I know my husband was seriously wondering if I was going around the bend. These two were some of the best NA characters I've had the opportunity to meet in awhile. Not only are they three dimensional, but Meader took the time and pages to do this with several of the secondary characters, which made this nearly 400 pages of sizzling hot guys. I mean they were scorching!This was the first Meader book I've read but it certainly won't be the last. While the sex is hot, the story-line focuses on the family. Because they were foster kids, they are really serious when it comes to taking care of each other and having each other's back back. I can't wait to read the books on the rest of the boys and the only girl, feisty Alex, gets the next one. I really hope we don't have to wait too long for Gage's story. OMG! my mouth is watering just thinking about him and Brady (I so hope that romance gets its own book).
