A small-town faking dating romance from the bestselling author of Flawless and Wild Love. Stefan Dalca is infuriatingly handsome and annoyingly persistent. We're supposed to hate each other, but apparently he didn't get the memo, because he's been asking me out for years. And I always say no. Until today. Today he has something that I desperately need - today, he's my saviour. Our time together starts out as a simple transaction: three dates, no touching, no telling anyone - and definitely no falling in love. But with every intimate conversation, and each stolen glance, the tension between us builds. The way he looks at me gives me butterflies. And when he finally touches me? We sizzle. Stefan makes me feel seen in a way no other person has before. He cherishes my words as passionately as my body. He makes me laugh, he makes me blush. He's not the villain he's been made out to be. And suddenly I find myself longing for him in a way the people closest to me wouldn't approve of or understand. Giving in to Stefan Dalca is playing with fire. But with him I don't even mind the heat.

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • For fans of Release Me comes a series of three enigmatic and powerful men, and the striking women who can bring them to their knees.   I knew better than to risk my heart. But fierce passion comes at a high price.   I grew up believing in right and wrong, good and evil, black and white. I knew better than to trust. And then I met Tyler Sharp.   Bold, charming, and dangerously sexy, Tyler always gets what he wants. But his smile can be deceiving, his dealings sordid, his ambitions ruthless. I thought I was the one woman strong enough to resist him, but our need for each other was too urgent to deny.   One look and I was in trouble. One touch and I was hooked. One night and I became his.   And now that I’ve fallen, there’s no going back.   Heated is intended for mature audiences. INCLUDES THE BONUS STORY “TAKE ME”.  This edition includes excerpts from J. Kenner's Say My Name and Release Me. Praise for Heated   “A steamy story with a dark edge. Recommended for those seeking crime drama with spice.”—Library Journal   “Kenner may very well have cornered the market on sinfully attractive, dominant antiheroes and the women who swoon for them, and this second installment of her Most Wanted series goes a long way toward solidifying that claim. Her characters’ scorching, scandalous affair explores the very nature of attraction and desire, redeeming and changing them beyond measure. . . . Fans will no doubt love the games of power, overwhelming passion and self-defining relationship that Kenner has crafted, and come away eager for more.”—RT Book Reviews   “The plot is complex, the characters engaging, and J. Kenner’s passionate writing brings it all perfectly together.”—Harlequin Junkie   “In Julie Kenner’s typical masterful storytelling, nothing is as it seems. We are taken deeply into the plot twists and the danger of this . . . journey. The chemistry first felt by both Tyler and Sloanne during their first encounter roars into an all-consuming fire neither one can put out. . . . Take the same journey I did and you will not be disappointed!”—As You Wish Reviews

Riveting sexual heat... a delicious and definite five star read."Jennifer Sage - Author of The Guardian Archives Series"A fun, often humorous, escapist tale that will have readers blushing, laughing and rooting for its characters." (KIRKUS REVIEW of Breaking Love) MJ Summers is slowly killing me. First she wrote a book about a sexy cowboy and now she's written one about a sexy Frenchman. I loved Breaking Love and it was worth every one of the 5 stars that I gave it.— Karen, A Thousand Lives Book Blog"What other authors so often fail, MJ championed in this book: in many books this long process of will they/won't they is just too long and after some time it loses the whole appeal, but here... it was not flat or boring for a second, it was all the time gripping and had you on the tips of your toes. Altogether, the book has made a fascinating, steamy... quick read. Why quick? Well, because I couldn't put it down, so engrossed was I in Megan and Luc's lives. It is a brilliant love story written with a lot of feeling and understanding.... MJ Summers can really write a hot romance with great characters in it, full of misunderstandings, twist and turns, heartbreaks and hurt but still with a lot of joy and that is a great entertainment. I have really enjoyed this book and will be keeping my eye on MJ Summers in the future."—On My Book Shelf Review Blog"I absolutely loved MJ Summers story writing, she really manages to suck you in and I was actually quite surprised at how engrossing I found Luc and Megan's story...This was an incredibly enjoyable read.
