Too Wild To Tame

In Tessa Bailey's Too Wild to Tame, the 2nd installment in the Romancing the Clarksons contemporary romance series, this novel would make you fan yourself from the hot and steamy love scenes. After the Clarksons left New Mexico, they stopped in Iowa. For Aaron, he stopped at a campaign fundraiser for the Pendletons and ran into a thief who stole the money. Aaron and his dog, Old Man followed the culprit and kept their secret. Little did he know that she was Senator Pendelton's youngest daughter Grace, a bit of a wild child who had lost her way. For Grace, she had been kept a secret from her father and stayed away from family dinners and outings. She had a bit of a experience at a camp and wanted to set it right. When she met Aaron, the chemistry between them was palpable when they made love. In order to impress her father, he came up with a plan to raise points for his campaign to voters and championed Grace's cause to rebuilt YouthAspire to shake its shaky past. Grace had lost her five friends and survived from the fire that day. When things tend to get heated between them with a slow burn, Aaron was given a choice to leave for New York without Grace or listen to his heart to follow his dreams.

This was another great contemporary romance love story from Tessa Bailey. I really cared for Grace who had been sheltered from an overprotective father. I loved how she finally stuck to her guns and told him how she felt. I also liked how Aaron handled his side of things for her father and how she kept the secret between him and Grace low key. They do see to make a perfect couple to heat up the windows with their romance. You would need a tall glass of ice water to cool yourself down. I loved the winter season in Iowa and how it showcased the bitter side of politics and how idyllic the Midwest states could be with the cornfield. The scenery was vivid with splendid descriptions and mesmerizing locations. This would make you want to sigh, swoon and sway and douse yourself with a water hose with plenty of romance, lots of drama, some intrigue and action.

Too Hot to Handle

In Tessa Bailey's Too Hot to Handle, the first installment in the Romancing the Clarksons contemporary romance series, get ready to fan yourself and cool yourself with a hot glass of water. After Rita Clarkson had accidentally burned down her late mother's restaurant, she found an entry in her journal with her last wishes for Rita and her three siblings. To complete that final wish, they would have to take a road trip from Los Angeles to New York City. On the way there, their car breaks down in the middle of New Mexico, when help arrived on a motorcycle. The Good Samaritan who rescued them is named Jasper Ellis, who tried to live up to his grandfather's expectations. While the car's in the shop, both Rita and Jasper get to know each other better, while she tried to settle the peace between her brothers and sisters, who haven't seen each other in years.  But the chemistry between Jasper and Rita was steamy hot, ever since he kissed her and when they made love with each other. He helped her find peace and faith to cook again in the kitchen since the fiasco, while she also found a new home where she belonged with him and in his kitchen of his restaurant. While her sisters continued to road trip without her to NYC, she had found what she was looking for in a fresh new start.

This was a fantastic contemporary romance debut.  I adored Rita and her siblings, as they've tried to get along and make peace in the end with encouragement. I found Jasper hot and sexy altogether with his flannel shirt. I also cared for Rita, Aaron, and Belmont, as they've tried to make amends and help Rita out with her toughest decision to stay in Hurley, New Mexico.I found Hurley very picturesque for a small town in the middle of nowhere with all the right fixings for an idealistic location and settings. The chemistry between Rita and Jasper was hot all over. This would take you on a thrill ride with your emotions and senses as you would cry, sigh, and cheer on Rita in the end. This has plenty of romance and love with great drama, non-stop action, and a hint of humor.
