One Night Burn by Kate MeaderMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
"One Night Burn" is a free prequel to Kate Meader's newest release, "Up in Smoke," which kicks off the Hot in Chicago Rookies series. The prequel is included as the first five chapters of the book so it's not a requirement to read it in advance, but it is a great way to preview the book before buying.
Abby Sullivan and her friends Sam and Jude have just graduated from the Chicago Fire Department's training academy and are about to begin working as full-time firefighter candidates. After a night of celebration with her friends, Abby decides to head home early, stopping at her favorite diner for pie along the way. Unfortunately, single dad Roman Rossi has just ordered the last piece, but after seeing Abby's disappointment, he's happy to share it with her. They hit it off and Roman ends up walking Abby home; they exchange phone numbers and a hot kiss, but not their real names, before going their separate ways. They're shocked to see each other again just a few days later, when Abby reports for her first day on the job and learns that Roman is her new lieutenant.
I really enjoyed this prequel and felt like I got to know main characters Abby and Roman in a relatively short period of time. I'm already invested in their relationship and look forward to finding out where their story goes from here.
