Synopsis
When Knox Wellington opens the door to Charlie Davenport, he’s not expecting the fiery brunette with whiskey colored eyes and a feisty personality. Sparks fly immediately, even though their initial meeting is nothing but hostile. Their chemistry is undeniable, but the chip on Knox’s shoulder threatens to destroy any hope of him wooing the sweet, southern volunteer sent to help with his rehabilitation.
Little does he know she’s no Southern Belle, as she gives as good as she can take. As unexpected circumstances push them closer together, heads butt, patience is tested, and flames ignite as they dance around their mutual attraction, both of them jaded from broken pasts.
They’ve both been burned before, so when their feelings of lust, desire, and wanting are inflamed in the heat of the moment, will they finally be able to get over the pain of the past or will their relationship be reduced to ashes before it can ever really begin?
*While this book is a standalone, characters from Ignite, book 1, will appear in Knox’s story.
Review
Tessa Teevan made me fall in love with a man in uniform! Not just once but twice!! Jace was awesome in Ignite (book 1) And boy oh boy did Knox give me butterflies in Incinerate. I love when an author can write from both POVs in a book and make it flow so well. With both POVs I feel like I get the best of both worlds. Tessa knew when it was the right time to switch gears and go from Knox to Charlie.
Knox was a man who built up a brick wall around his heart and hadn’t let his guard down in 10+ years. Letting go of his family and someone that devastated him many years ago haunted him and he couldn’t move forward with his life. Love wasn’t an option for him. To give his heart to someone just so they could just rip it out was something he wasn’t willing to risk.
Charlie on the other hand was hurt and not ready for love because of an ache that was still fresh and not very old. She was a very strong willed, independent, beautiful women who could handle her own. But when Charlie had to walk away from her engagement because of betrayal she was finding a hard time to move forward.
Knox gets hurt in the line of duty and Charlie happens to be his volunteer when he gets released from the hospital to go home. These two are so much alike and butt heads like crazy but the chemistry is there and they are both too stubborn to admit to themselves or to one another how they feel. I loved being able to ride along their roller coaster ride to see Knox’s walls break down and Charlie giving in and taking a chance.
To make a good book you have to make your readers fall in love with not just the main characters but everyone else in the book as well! Tessa already had us rooting for Lexi and Jace from book 1. Wade Charlie’s dad, was great you couldn’t help but swoon over the single dad who raised an amazing daughter. Lucy, Charlie’s bestie was super sweet and fun. Kale, Knox’s friend was hilarious and you couldn’t help but laugh at the stuff he would say.
Spring can’t come soon enough because I am dying to read about Lucy and Kale. Incinerate left us hanging with a little something about Lucy and Kale that have me wanting more and finding out how things played out.
I give this book 5 stars and promise you wont regret reading this series!

I’m a twenty six year old book junkie who is also obsessed with sports. Bengals, Buckeyes, Reds are my teams! I work for the government during the day, hang out with Air National Guard on the weekends, and have been married to my own book boyfriend for over seven years. We currently live right outside of Dayton, OH with our two cats.
If I’m not writing or looking through tons of photos of hot men, all in the name of research, then you can probably find me curled up with my Kindle, ignoring the rest of the world. I love my sports almost as much as I love my books. My other obsessions include red wine, hot men, country music, and all things Grace Potter.
