Description: Niall Chandler has had a lot of heartbreak in her life. Her husband is in an institution, and her child is dead. She's shut out the world in order to cope, but a sensual encounter with playwright Vic Savian makes her feel ready to experience the physical pleasures he has to offer. Divorced, Vic is no stranger to heartbreak, and he's determined to keep his relationship with Niall strictly sexual. But her haunted nighttime cries tear him up inside. He wants to protect her, but Niall won't let him in. When her secret past comes between them, they have to decide if they're willing to tear down their walls and admit that their sexual relationship has turned into love.

Review:

Warning: You may want to use pot holders while reading Wicked Burn, because it is THE HOTTEST book I've ever read. With pearls, a Restaurant Booth and a belt OH MY. With that said, I think Ms. Kery created a spectacular story, that had characters with depth and great character development. We see the hurt of both Niall and Vic, and then finally their HEA. I had no such problems with the story, that in itself was a 5 for me. However, I didn't like the name Niall and thought Vic was a bit too alpha, which at times, were more annoying than enjoyable. Those were my only complaints, and have added it to my keeper shelf!

This book has been added to my keeper shelf as well Cindy. I too read and reviewed "Wicked Burn", a while ago and I still think of the story. I too thought it was beautifully written.

It was. Emotional and touching! I am reading Scandal by Carolyn Jewel right, it's very emotional too, and I'm loving it!

I heard Scandal was emotional. I need to pick it up when I go to the book store on Tuesday.

Glad you ordered it, Barbara!!!

Amy, Yes do!

Scandal was a bit slow in the begining, but I am loving it! I think it's a bit unique, I should (or at least hope to) finish tonight!

I loved this book. Other than the over-alphaness of the hero, the book was great. And the sex??? *fans self* Yowza!
