Too Hot to Handle
by
Aleah Barley (Goodreads Author)
She was playing with fire...
Honey Moore has made a pledge: no more stealing cars and no more lusting after Jack Ogden. But when an arsonist torches her house and chases her all over Los Angeles, she’s forced to throw herself on Jack’s mercy. No one will look for a convicted felon in an LAPD detective’s apartment, right?
Jack doesn’t need a woman like Honey in his life. She...more

This book contains sexual content. Ideal for 18+.
Too Hot to Handle was my first novel by author Aleah Barley, so I went into it not knowing what to expect, but I have to say to I’m really pleased because what I got was a great read. It’s a hot and steamy novel – one that has a fast paced and exciting storyline, with a love story that was very intense and I loved it.

In a nut shell: really enjoyed this book… but that could be in part because of the fabulous Mopar in the book – Jake’s Superbee! Sorry I’m a Mopar Girl <3! So beautiful cars, action, and romance – how can this ever be a bad combo!
My Rating: 4/5 stars

I really liked this book. The characters were good – there was action – emotion – romance. I love a girl who knows cars. **I’m married to a mechanic… so I know my cars** I love that Honey is trying to clean up her act and I absolutely...more

They're throwing around a clever logline on Twitter for this book... and I'm a sucker for a clever logline. "He stole her heart. She stole his car." Then, I read the blurb and it sounded like the perfect short read to get me through a rough day and a head cold. It was at that, but it was also really funny...but maybe that's the cold medicine talking.
No, it's not. Here are my favorite excerpts:

Too Hot To Handle is a cute, funny, sexy read.
Honey and Jack have had a thing for each other since high school. They even dated for a very brief period of time. They are from two different worlds. Jack is from a very wealthy family with political prospects in his future. Honey is a criminal who has been busted repeatedly and spent some time in prison for stealing Jacks cop car for a beer run. She has grown up and has tried hard to put the past...more

A sexy read...
Honey is a former car thief, who never admits to thievery. In her eyes, she merely borrows stuff. And what "stuff" that is! She is good at borrowing cars. Not just any car, but freaking beautiful expensive cars. Well, she does admit to have paid her dues already, since she swears she's never hot wired a car, at least not with the intention of stealing it. She thinks somehow her past has caught up with her, someone wants her dead and she barely makes it out of her house alive. Findi...more

"He was a double fudge sundae with whipped cream, chocolate sauce, and cookie crumbles. Beautiful. Rich. Bad for her."
Wow. Another totally hot short book for romance fans to swoon over. I really enjoyed 'Too Hot To Handle' and I was plesently surprised by it. I had never heard of Aleah before so when I was offered the chance to read this for Entangled Publishing I jumped at the chance.

Too Hot to Handle is truly a story about love at first sight. While it may not start off like that, especially with an old high school flame breaking into a police officer's apartment. Or when we learn that said burglar also hot wired said police officer's car and did time in jail for joyriding. You would think author Aleah Barley is setting us up for a major criminal court proceeding, but no.

Fun read with a unique heroine. The end was a little too tidy for my tastes, but this is a great book to enjoy while lounging in the sun.

Too Hot to Handle is a sexy and powerful short story. With a complicated past odds seem to be against Jack and Honey, but as this story unfolds readers will root for the happily ever after of their dreams. I was pleasantly surprised to find such an incredibly strong story with this hot and steamy romance. I loved the pairing Jack being a rich boy that has never quite fit in, and the poor troublesome Honey that together will make readers swoon. Like I said before the story is very short, but the...more
The writing was disjointed, which made a throw-away guilty-pleasure read a chore. Blah
Sexy and fun to read! A new author with a lot of talent. :-)
Good steamy beach read that's enjoyable.

This was a fun one, although I was very confused at the beginning. I liked the quick paced, witty feel to it.

“The most she could hope for was the chance to run away and let her love die a slow, natural death.
"Go to Hell," she said.
"Not without you." His sexy mouth tipped into a boyish grin, white teeth gleaming against tanned skin.”
