Christmas With Four Firemen

While the book is presented as a reverse harem romance, I found it was actually more adventure than romance. It had some steamy scenes that eventually culminated into a multiple partner sex scene. I would have liked to see more interactions among the characters after they became a thing together.
That said, I found the story of their lives as fire fighters interesting and I liked each of the main characters as it was drawn, and I thought the overall telling of the story was well executed. It kept my interest until the last page. This is my first read from this author.

Sarah is the only female in her firefighter team. She's lusting after her supervisor, but develops the hots for other team members too. There was some build-up with Austin, her supervisor, but the other hook-ups felt more sudden and random. I would have preferred more of a connection between partners but the story was good and the action was hot. The HEA comes at the end and I would have liked to see it a little more drawn out or over a more extended time period.

I received an ARC and this is my honest review.

An easy read with so much imagery that I couldn't put it down until I was finished. It is a hot steamy romance with a great plot. Also, even though it is the second book in the series you don't have to read the first one to be caught up, even though you would wish that you had. If you are looking for a good book and enjoy imagery then this is a book you should read. Happy reading!

This is really a has a fantastic story line to it, I have to warn you that if you do not like to have explicit sex in a book there are a few times that this book does have it in it. But that does not take away from the fantastic story line or different lines that are in this book. Sarah is a firefighter she has been with this station in San Diego for the past two years. Austin is the chief, Wes is like his right hand man the work together in such a way it was almost magical to watch. Luke is the brains of the group. No body really know why he chose to be a firefighter because he is literally a genius. He was quiet most of the time with his nose in a book or in his I-Pod. He could see things that most other people could not see. Then there is Owen. He comes from a family that is very rich, he is quiet as well too. He was the Probe and after some mistakes most of the guys thought that he could not really be trusted to have their backs. They assumed that he was wanting to play the part of the hero but they were far from wrong. How ever none of them tried to get to get to know him. Sarah did know a little about how it was being the odd one out. She the only female at the station had a lot to prove when she first started. With her fire red hair, and tiny petite body she had to prove that she was capable of doing the job.

Sarah had a crush on Austin the chief and her boss, as he her but he could not let it go farther than that. It was suppose to be the off season for fires in their area, but here lately there had been several wild fires. It was Luke that first suspected that they may have an arsonist on their hands. Most of the fires were close to where Sarah's younger sister worked on a horse ranch. During this last fire it could be the last for all of them. It is a question if they can get to safety before the wild fire closes in on them. The second is what is going to happen if they all get out of this alive. Will they finally accept Owen as one of their own. There are so many questions that that I could put in here but this is really a great book to read

Sarahh (I’m not sure if that’s a typo that the editor just let go) is an awesome female firefighter but kind of ridiculously dumb on the romance, making good choices side.

I can understand her frustration after sleeping with Austin, her boss. Heck, I’d be hurt by the way he zoomed out of there after admitting that it was all a mistake before the aftershocks wore off.

She’s literally playing with fire, crushing on all of her coworkers (aside from Owen, not sure how he’s going to fit into the harem) and she’s just asking to get burnt.

So, another coworker. Wes I can understand. Finding out Lucas has been harboring feeling was a surprise. Finding out they’ve shared before was a shock.

Jacklyn’s mystery guy makes me nervous. Why is he so interested in Sarahh? I hope this doesn’t lead to trouble.

Sarahh’s decision making skills are non existent. Throwing herself at Austin just to check how strong his will is is kind of unfair to him.

They’re headed to help fight a fire and might be gone for Christmas.

Owen breaking all the rules to be there for Sarahh to make sure her sister got to safety is everything. I’m very worried about the Eric character. He’s a lodger at the ranch but in an emergency goes off to run errands? Getting a glimpse at Owen’s past explains a lot and I’m glad Sarahh sees that. Although, the middle of an encroaching wildfire is probably not the best time to get freaky.

The bad guy gets caught, sisters reunited and everyone is on board no questions asked. No repercussions for the dumb things they chose to do.

In my opinion it was wrapped up too fast and too perfectly.

Would I reread? Probably not. Would I recommend? Probably not.

Christmas With Four Firemen (Forbidden Reverse Harems)

I love KC Crowne's books. I am particularly into how well she tells a polyamorous story. This one was filled with alot of suspense. But as far as a Harem? Sarahh was most into her captain, Austin. He did not treat her as kindly after sex mainly due to fear. Sarahh then hooked up with Wes. She had no idea that Luke wanted her too. Or Owen until they were stuck out at the ranch together. A Harem to me lives together, sleeps together. It seemed like they didn't get to that point until the last couple pages of the book. I kind of hoped they got her pregnant but it was my fantasy.

I recommend reading this book maybe not for the polyamory but the suspense of the fire and how they handle it is very good. I hate to hear about a firebug. I was in a fire when I was quite young. We had to leave our home at night. If it were not for people helping alot of people in their homes at Christmas in blankets. So I have a very special place for firefighters in my heart.

9/10 loved suspense but the focus of the title was on HAREMS.

HEA
Standalone, interconnected characters

Over age 18 only

Trigger Warnings
Arson

Characters
Sarah (sister to Mallory from previous book)
Jacklyn (the other sister)
Austin (captain/chief)
Owen (new guy)
Luke (genius)
Wes (ex model)

Sarah works with a bunch of hot firemen. Austin's the chief, Owen is causing problems as the new guy. And Wes is a flirt. Austin gives into his attraction to Sarah, then immediately shuts it down making her regret giving him a chance. Wes offers a FwBs deal and let's her know Luke and he can share. Owen feels like Austin is playing favorites, and somewhere out there is an arsonist setting the area on fire. Jacklyn's new man is acting suspicious, and now they're all trapped in a wildfire.
Plus, she still had to figure out what to do about her men...

Multiple typos and punctuation in places not needed aside, the book was a good one. Plot starts out really slow story wise but quick steam wise. I really enjoy K.C.'s books, they just need better editing or proofreading.

Her boss and secret crush is Austin,,,he's 6 foot 250# of pure muscle with golden eyes (brown/green),,, and chestnut hair,,,,,

The second in command is Luke,,, he is a smart guy, he went to a prestigious engineering school, but he dropped out cuz he got bored,,,

Her partner in the station is Wes,,, a good looking, tall guy, like 6 ft 6,,,, he was once a model, he has green eyes and shaggy blonde hair,,,,

Owen is the newbie,,,,, he has all the grunt jobs in and outta the station,,,, he is over 6 ft and blonde hair, blue eyes, and what looks like a surfers tan,,,,,

K.C. Crowne, I would personally like to thank you for this super hot book. Whew, should you be a fan of superbly crafted, reverse harem romance... You Found It Here! Delicious doesn't do this book justice. Luscious and riveting aren't enough either. I am just in awe of the immense talent and creativity displayed throughout this release. Sarah, a small, but mighty, firefighter has found love in her 'house'. Is it with Austin, her unbelievably gorgeous boss? What about Wes? Maybe Luke or the 'newbie' Owen? I truly wish that you'd just pick up this read and find out for yourself. I can 100% promise all lovers of a magnificent romance that you will NOT be able to walk away from this read. Loved it.

I was beyond fortunate to have requested an advanced reader's copy of Christmas With Four Firemen in exchange for my honest/voluntarily given opinion and I highly recommend reading this book as well as anything written by K.C. Crowne.

Eh...

Other than a few typos, there's nothing I can say that's particularly bad about this books, there's action, sex and emotions which have been pre established, though not priorly acknowledged before the start of the book. The sex scenes in my opinion aren't particularly steamy, that said I don't consider that a requirement ment on a good book, romance or not. However, despite it being a quick read it just felt like something was missing for me and I wasn't particularly engaged in the story. I don't have much of anything negative to say about the story, but I felt disconnected from characters and never really cared about their plight as I was reading, because of this, it wasn't really the book for me and I probably won't read others in the series.

The firehouse is Sarah's home and the men on her team are her family. They have to rely on each other in life or death circumstances and they always have to have each other's backs. This creates a unique bond. One that is complicated when Sarah finds herself attracted to more than one man. When a wildfire threatens all of their lives they must put personal feeling aside and rely on their fire training and survival instincts to get them all to safety. Sarah refuses to choose between the men. It's all or nothing. Will Sarah get what she really wants for Christmas? This is sweet holiday romance with a twist.

Good read

Sarah, Austin, Wes, Luke and Owen are all firefighters. Austin is the fire chief, Luke is second in command. Sarah, Wes and Luke have worked there for years. Owen is a newbie coming into a well oiled machine. Sarah has had a crush on he chief since she got the job, but that's a line you can't cross. As time goes on she starts to notice different things about each man and feelings start. But can one woman have four men? Will Austin step over the line? Will the men wanna share Sarah? Will they all get a HEA?

I received an arc copy in exchange for my honest review. The version I received did not reflect Christmas or the holiday season at all, I was notified that it has been updated to do so so I’m not sure how much of the story has changed. However the version I read had a lot of errors in it to the point that it was hard to read. As well as I lot of stuff that was repeated numerous times along with scenes that just did not add to the storyline of the book. I had a very hard time to reading it. This book is also described as a reverse harem but it is not and with out spoiling the book I will just say that there is no group of men that the lead gets with together like the word harem implies.

Sarah finds herself falling in love with her four team mate but can she choose between them.
As the only female fire-fighter on the team Sarah has had to prove herself as the team needs to be able to trust each other and their reactions for the safety of all and after two years on the team she was a full member of the team. The four men she works with are all good looking hunks and over time she has come to have feelings for all of them including Captain Austin the leader of the team.

This is a really sweet stiry. These firefighters have a family they never want to give up just by working together, and their feelings can cause a bit of trouble in paradise so they don’t mess with what works....until things start up and then it’s fair game. The suspense of the wildfires and structure fires keeps you on your toes and makes the story more realistic and intense. I cannot wait for more!

It takes four hoses to put out this Fire

Sarah burns for the four Firemen she works with. Austin, Luke, Wes and Owen are all sexy, capable, charismatic, passionate, brawny, and crazy about her. This book is a fun read with a good plot story and I would have given it a 5 if it contained more multiple partner sex scenes and just more. I didn’t care for having to wait till the end. Otherwise it was a solid two thumbs up.

Hot firemen...

I really liked this story. Maybe I'm a little biased since I LOVE firefighters. Also, I have become quite a fan of this author. So yeah I may be biased...lol! I had been looking forward to this story since finishing book one in this series. Sarah and her men were wonderful characters and their story was great. I'm looking forward to the next story in the series.
