The Firefighter's Dilemma by Mariah Ankenman,
The Firefighter's Dilemma by Mariah Ankenman, book three in her Mile High Firefighters series, had me laughing-out loud, tears rolling down your face, while reading Stephanie and Eli’s workmates, friends to lovers, somewhat opposites attract, forced proximity romance story. There are some heavy topics that drives each of them to succeed: family, and a parental death; but do not overpower a story that is about the fun, the relationship, the attraction, and the spark.
Stephanie Diaz and Eli Ward have been coworkers as firefighters for four
years. They know they can’t have feelings for each other and continue working
at the same Fire Station. Then their chief decides to send them on a reality
show, the Rocky Mountain “First Responders”
reality competition, together with a warning that he will
decide who gets the promotion they both are vying for. Eli and Stephanie were the perfect partners. They both had
terrific reasons for wanting to win as a team and additionally to be singled
out as the star performer; and I loved how neither sacrificed the other to gain
for themselves.
They were both at the top of their game and definitely brought their best to
the competition; working so closely together made ignoring their attraction so
much more difficult. I was so glad when they gave into their feelings, but
hated that they felt they had to keep it hidden. I loved how it wrapped up and
the epilogue was terrific. Steli Forever!!
Ms. Ankenman wrote a laugh-out-loud, wonderful and
endearing great friends/coworker to more romance that I could not put
down and should not be missed. She provided a tale rich with emotions, attraction, chemistry, clever banter, humor, and a cast of secondary
characters assisting Eli and Stephanie get the love and future they deserve.
I
highly recommend The Firefighter’s
Dilemma to
other readers and look forward to the next book in this series.
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy prior to purchase of this book.
