That said SEX AND THE SINGLE FIREMAN is an entertaining and satisfying read. I haven't read the previous books in the "Bachelor Fireman" series ([b:The Fireman Who Loved Me|12832043|The Fireman Who Loved Me (The Bachelor Firemen of San Gabriel, #1)|Jennifer Bernard|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1329491127s/12832043.jpg|17982241] and [b:Hot for Fireman|12832079|Hot for Fireman (The Bachelor Firemen of San Gabriel, #2)|Jennifer Bernard|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1331943161s/12832079.jpg|17982281]), but surprisingly this didn't impact my enjoyment of the book at all. I found that the backstory for Sabina and Roman, individually and together, was enough to keep me interested in the story.
As for the heat...well...I can't make myself write a pun. I just can't. But you get the idea.
This was also a bit of a crossover appeal novel. Not just firemen, but also a lot is delved into with Sabina's life as a child TV star and the lasting impact that has. In a world where child stars are routinely paraded on tabloid and magazine covers, or in blog reports and Hollywood Scandal shows as having difficulties adjusting to their adult years, I found it refreshing that Sabina took that step and walked away before it came to that. Roman for his part had a lot to deal with because of the death of his wife (also a firefighter), raising his son alone and being Sabina's boss, but I was more invested in his present circumstances (struggling to find the same passion he once had for being a firefighter) and where that ultimately led him.
The tension is palatable throughout the novel, but it never feels...strained I suppose is a good word. The two of them don't get together until fairly late in the book (last third), but that connection is still there. It was almost sweet really, how they both obviously wanted to encourage the other, but was thwarted by overly ambitious mothers, coworkers who didn't know when to quit and regulations that could strangle them.
I was not a fan of the resolution between Sabina and her mother Annabelle. While the truth wasn't particularly surprising, given the circumstances, what was surprising was that it took them this long to get to the bottom of things.
Otherwise I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. It was a (really) quick read and was perfect to jumpstart my want for romance once more.… (mer)
