GETTING HOTTER is book eight in Elle Kennedy's Out of
Uniform series. Seth Masterson is a man on a mission. Ever
since he set eyes on Miranda Breslin, he has known that he
has wanted her. But life stands in their way. With two
young kids -- twins, to be precise and a busy schedule,
Miranda has absolutely no time to have a hot fling with the
biggest bad boy. Yet, she cannot deny the attraction that
stirs between them.
To be honest, I had mixed emotions about Seth. I kept a
mental tally of what I liked about him and didn't. For the
first half of the book, the things I didn't like about him
were adding up. He seemed to be a little too forward and
while I can appreciate determination in a man, there were a
couple other things that bothered me about his personality.
He simply did not care about Miranda's obligations to her
family. She has two kids to care for and all Seth cared
about was how to get into her pants. This made me yearn for
something more. Later on in the book, Kennedy redeems Seth
a bit though I don't think he fully won me over.
Nevertheless, Kennedy brings forth sexiness in spades. The
sexual tension is palpable and there is a good variety of
sex. I enjoyed the way Kennedy was able to bring life to
her characters. With her clear and distinctive voice, Elle
Kennedy is definitely becoming an author I will watch out
for!
Seth Masterson has been lusting over Miranda Breslin since
the moment he saw her on a Vegas stage. Now that he’s been
asked to watch out for her as she opens a dance studio in
San Diego, he’s all over it, figuring it’s his chance to get
her in his bed. Except the stubborn single mom seems
determined to deny their crazy-sizzling sexual chemistry. In
typical SEAL fashion, Seth makes it his personal mission to
prove her wrong.
Miranda got over her attraction to bad boys about the time
one of them knocked her up at the age of eighteen. Seth’s
mocking gray eyes and military-buff bod, though, are pure
and utter temptation. And when a flooded apartment forces
her and her twins to move in with him, she can no longer
resist the urge to set off some serious fireworks between
the sheets.
But give him her heart? No, thank you. Any involvement with
Seth will be strictly physical—and temporary. So when Seth
decides permanent is what he wants, Miranda must steel her
defenses before she does something incredibly foolish…like
fall in love.
