This also should of came with a warning at beginning of the intensity of the heat level contained inside. It begins quite innocently grabbing ahold of the reader with what happened with Kylie and his sister but remorse as Kylie is placed in a ambulance. Cameron is one dedicated boyfriend and wants to go in with them but has to follow. Having not read the first one did not matter because it fills you in and as a reader that is good because I do not always get or have the opportunity (or time for that matter) to read any before when this happens. If it says you should read ones before first I sometimes shy away because even though I love series also love when it does not matter or need to be in order. Silly to some but oh well as I continue on it would seem I am right there in hospital with both hoping for the best and and amazed at the why's and wherefore's on how this ended up in this setting. The love and care he shows her is what any woman would desire if they themselves do not have it in their lives. Courtney also as the sister of Cameron is also a character you can relate to also. Through a few more bumps after this you are taken along on a really hot growing relationship between two who know how to sizzle when together. Courtney also meets someone who is more worthy then the last scum bucket she hooked up with who also knows how to treat a lady. Kylie after much talking and discussion also makes a big discussion and works for Cameron while he races but they do it in style. Since he knows how to treat the woman he loves he pampers he immensely but if the parts of them together are any indication (burning in my seat while reading) she is not suffering one bit except maybe missing everyone she cares about a time or two. Blaine who also used to be Kylie's boss arranges a great weekend for them on a private beach at his beach house that enough heat happens between them all they could of had a bbq. Lots of lovin' and delight fill the pages of this book. Cameron also surprises Kylie with a visit from parents and Courtney and Blaine on a day of one of his big races. Fun time for all and you get to see just how good of a racer he actually is. Love the banter between Courtney and Kylie every time they get together. It draws out a chuckle or two even. At the end of this one though the author packs a punch with a big surprise that keeps you enthralled to now you have to see what happens next. received a arc for a honest review. ...more

The Desire Series continues with this book, the second in the series. If you have been reading this series, you are probably like me right now, just relieved the Kylie survived the car crash. The threat of her ex-boyfriend Dylon is like a dark cloud over everyone's life. I was hoping they would throw him in jail and lose the key!

In the meantime Kylie has to come back to full health and Cameron is more than willing to help her. He knows how deeply he loves her. The thought of losing her has made ...more

Heated Desire begins immediately where the Tainted Desire left off. I don't want to give too much away but Kylie is in the hospital and Cameron is blaming himself for not protecting her. Their relationship goes through some struggles as Kylie tries to heal from her past and become more independent. Meanwhile Cameron just wants to prove to Kylie that she is the one for him and will do anything to prove that. I enjoyed this book even more than the first one.

If you have not read it do not read the rest of this review as you will probably be mad at me for spoilers!!
So back to business- Kylie was kidnapped by her crazy ex-boyfriends crazy cousin. She steers the car into the river and luckily there are some good people left in this world that help her out. She is left in a coma fighting for her life. Cameron never leaves her side even though he is just starting his career as a NASCAR driver. You see the all out love that he has for Kylie and how he will and would walk through fire for her. We also get to see the emotional toll that this situation has on both Kylie and Courtney. For Kylie she is having a hard time getting over the fact that someone died because of her actions, even if they were in a survival situation. For Courtney, she thought she was in love with the person who caused harm to her best friend.
Along the way, we see how much Kylie grows as a person. She is coming from years of living with a control freak that pretty much told her what to do with every aspect of her life. She wants to go out and prove to herself, and everyone else, that she can make it on her own. Cameron has his own ideas. He wants to provide for Kylie and make her want for nothing. He understands why Kylie needs to prove to herself that she can make it on her own, but he just wants to provide for her. Enough said. This of course makes for some fun and entertaining fights between the 2 of them.

I will say, if you are looking for HOT SEX this book will not disappoint! There was more sex then I thought I even needed in this book. It is not your typical sex either. We see how dominant Camerson is in the bedroom and how open minded Kylie is. You will read this and tell your husband you want to be tied to the bed and screwed beyond an inch of your life after reading some of these scenes. I will say that I don't think that there is a time or a place that these 2 will not have sex.
I love the relationship that Courtney and Kylie have in this book. They are so open about sex and the way that they talk to each other is awesome. I call my besties Whores and CumSuckers all the time. That shows how much of close relationship they have.
Now~the bad news. While there is not one of those drama 75% into the book situations that you find in some books, there is a cliffy that will leave you wanting more. Bad news is that I asked the author and not even she knows where the next book is going. She is writing something new and is hoping to get to this to us soon. Sooner- rather then later- is good for me as I am a Wendi Hulsey fan through and through!! ...more

Heated Desire is book two in Wendi Hulsey’s Desire series. You must read the first book (Tainted Desire) before beginning, or reading on, Heated Desire.

Heated Desire picks up right where Tainted ended. Kylie is in some serious trouble; but, she manages to keep a cool head. Then shit really hits the fan and I was left dangling for something positive to happen! Thank the lord it does so I didn’t have to bang my head against my kindle. Kylie and Cameron both will need to find compromise in this sequel in order to make their relationship work. Everyone has parts of their past they want to keep buried, but sometimes, our pasts find a way to haunt us.

Once again readers are caught in Kylie, Cameron and Courtney’s web. I still have a few of the same issues in Heated that I had in Tainted. First off, the occasional disconnect from the characters was paramount in this book just because of the drama and issues the characters need to work through. I want to feel what they’re feeling, once you begin reading you’ll realize why I had an issue with it. Secondly, and this ties in with the disconnect I felt, some key scenes I thought needed a little more finesse and description to really bring out that pain, agony, happiness, sadness and anger. The story-line is still really strong through the trials the characters endure and the sex….oh the sex. I won’t even being to type that I might melt my laptop! But let’s just say, if Wendi makes them any hotter, someone will combust.

I am completely enamored by all of the characters so far. Yes, even Kylie’s evil, vile, asshat of an ex Dylan. Without him...this series would never have had a foothold….unfortunately. Otherwise, and I’m sure many agree with me, I would’ve found the sharpest icicle I could and stabbed him with it.

Overall, this might be my favorite yet, but that has yet to be finalized until I read the very last one. This series has fully grown on me and I am waiting on baited breath for the third book. Wendi has left me wanting more and more. I swear, she’s trying to kill me with suspense! ...more

4 STAR THOUGHTS

After the cliffhanger at the end of Tainted Desire, I have been dying to know what happened to Kylie! And that is where this story begins. . .

Kylie was shocked when she found out who Blake really was when he kidnapped her. After seeing no other way to escape she forced them to wreck over the bridge. Now Kylie is one a gurney fighting for her life. When Cameron arrives he immediately blames himself for not being able to keep his promise to protect her.

After the cliffhanger at the end of Tainted Desire, I have been dying to know what happened to Kylie! And that is where this story begins. . .

Kylie was shocked when she found out who Blake really was when he kidnapped her. After seeing no other way to escape she forced them to wreck over the bridge. Now Kylie is one a gurney fighting for her life. When Cameron arrives he immediately blames himself for not being able to keep his promise to protect her.

"I would give anything just to have Kylie open her eyes for a split second so she knows we're here for her and I can tell her that I love her."

When Kylie finally wakes up she wants Cameron more than ever. After everything she has been through she needs him to make her feel alive and beautiful. She wants to forget about the past and move on, but she refuses to let any man ever dictate her life again. (good for her!) There are many bumps in the road for Cameron and Kylie but their bond is strong enough to withstand anything. And they definitely know how to make-up!! Their banter with one another is hilarious!

"Kylie, you would never make a good submissive. You're too damn mouthy. I would be beating that fine ass all day."

Can true love be enough to make you forget about the past? Will she ever be able to live without looking over her shoulder? Or will her past always be able to find her?

Just as I sat back and took a breath, we are rocked once again with another cliffhanger!!! I about threw my Kindle. I had just settled myself in their happy moment after the HOT car scene and bam!!! Damn!

For me I thought this was better than the first book because I felt we got to know more about some of the other characters, like Courtney (love her), and overall just had more emotion throughout the book. But I still believe it is over the top with the sex and while most is hot it was just too much. Especially right after the hospital. But… with that said I am anxious to know how Kylie and Cameron's story ends, fingers crossed for an amazing HEA! ...more
