I just couldn't get into this book. I didn't find anything wrong with the book, It just didn't grab my interest.

Hot Bayou Fire by a new to me author Elizabeth Shore. A Very spicy book. It was only a okay book for
me. Didn't realize it was part of a series but it didn't take away from me reading the book and the storyline. It could still be read as a standalone. I enjoyed the settings and dialogue.

This is a slow burn story about Chase and Autumn and has all the markers of a great read - strong connection between characters, believable storyline, suspense and intrigue. The villain of the story is a little cringe-worthy but it's clear the reader isn't supposed to like her. I loved learning a little more about Chase's art - I found the world of glass-blowing fascinating. There's great detail to the book and a really good story pace. I highly enjoyed it!

This is a new author for me and I really enjoyed this book. I look forward to reading more from this author. This is a hot, steamy story that took romance to a new level for me. The characters are well developed and I enjoyed the chemistry with them. I had no problems connecting with them as the brought the story to life for me. I enjoyed watching this story develop and how the characters were supportive. This is an engaging, fast paced story that kept me turning pages to the end. I highly recommend this book.

Wonderful book. It was a sweet hot read. I think my kindle melted from the sexiness. It was a quick easy read with no real scary drama. They are hot together for sure! There is a kind of instant attraction and togetherness, but it just works in this case. It was fun and sexy and very enjoyable.

Autumn is an expert in her field of IT who has been assigned to help Chase Freedon Durand get his art installed in the new hotel. Upon their first meeting Autumn thinks that he is as tall as a mountain, which I understood quite well. Short girl problems for the win!
Both characters are not afraid to stick up for themselves and have difficult pasts that have shaped who they are.
The tension feels real between them, especially with the situations they are put into, (who knew glass blowing could be so hot) So the relationship felt earned and not rushed which I appreciated.
I would highly recommend this book, now I'm off to discover what else this author has in store for me to read

Passionate, sexy, and sweet. The romance between Autumn and Chase is intense and full of chemistry. Chase will be your next book boyfriend. I love the realness of the character. Autumn is the perfect combination of unsure and fiery. There is also the perfect dose of intrigue with situations going on. This author is new to me and I'll be adding here to my must read list!

Hot Bayou Fire tells the story of IT Autumn Rivette and artist Chase Durand’s hot and steamy romance ready to spark flames in our bodies.

Hot Bayou Fire tells the story of Autumn Rivette and Chase Durand’s steamy office romance. Unable to get their hands off each other, both Autumn and Chase must find ways to keep Maryanne, their boss, off their back, especially off Chase’s back.

I gave Hot Bayou Fire four stars, absolutely loving the chemistry between Autumn and Chase and the way they fit so well together and the fact that each interaction seemed to get steamier and steamier. Chase seemed to understand that Autumn has a few skeletons in her closet and I liked that he wasn’t pushy about it. He let Autumn tell him when she was ready and he was such an understanding hero and I loved the way he was caring and didn’t push Autumn to do things.

Autumn is such a fiery character and I love that she was strong and that she was always speaking her mind. She didn’t seem to be afraid to stand up for herself. I loved that she really grew throughout the story and slowly realized that Chase was different from everyone else she had let into her life.

There were a few things missing throughout the book but as an overall story I really enjoyed reading this. The plot seemed perfect for the story and I think that if you wanted to pick this book up, you definitely should, but be warned, this is definitely not a fluffy read.

Thank you again NetGalley for an ARC in exchange for an honest review.

If you're in the mood for some steamy chemistry, mild drama and a HAE, look no further!

It's a breath of fresh air to read a romance that not packed with over exaggerations and unrealistic drama. Hot Bayou Fire was a quick read that ticks all the boxes and leaves you smiling at the end!

Fiery passion and drama:
I enjoyed the unique premise and combination of a glass artist falling for an IT specialist. Chase is a confidant, good looking, successful artist. Meanwhile Autumn has been hurt in the past and is skittish and fearful. When they begin working together things soon heat up and I'm not just talking about the glass making furnace! Add in an overly ambitious and unscrupulous co-worker and you have plenty of drama and intrigue too.
I liked how Autumn eventually came to realize that she was worthy of love and learnt to also give it in return. Overall a great book that will set your heart ablaze.

If you’re looking for whimsical musings of the Louisiana bayous, this is not the book for you. Though it takes place in Louisiana, there is not mention of the oaks, bayou wildlife or the people. This is a fast paced romance novel with steamy, at times bondage, love scenes. Chase and Autumn meet at the White Ibis. A hotel that MaryAnne is attempting to restore. Autumn is a computer prodigy, coder extraordinaire. Chase is a glass blower with exquisite and intricate designs. Both come from troubling backgrounds and are in need of understanding and love. The author takes time to develop the characters which results in an all around good story. This is a continuation of the Bayou series but a standalone installment.

Sizzling hot. If novels of the erotic genre is your thing and your interested in fascinating reading material then this novel is definitely the right pick for you. I highly recommend that if you have not read this book that you do so. I found it to encourage my curiosity into the storyline and actually found it quite amusing.
Kudo's to the author and the publisher for bringing out an awesome novel.
