Steamy, fun read

This was a fun story! A sexy firefighter who is reluctantly entered in a calendar contest, and a Chinese journalist. Lots of steamy fantasy scenes throughout in what starts out as "let's have sex, no strings attached," but soon turns into a relationship of sorts. Both have family issues to deal with, feeling pressured to marry one of their race because of older generation prejudice. What made this a winner for me was that interspersed with all those sexy fantasies were the emotions between both characters and how they reluctantly at first (especially the heroine), try to keep those emotions out of it because of those family pressures, not wanting to even think about marriage because of them, and then find themselves starting to want what they really want out of life instead of caving in to what their families think they should strive for. It takes the heroine longer than the firefighter, but how could she resist him--besides being hot, he's got a tender, sweet side to him, too!

Great Erotic fiction

Jenny Yuen has a great covering the firefighter calander contest. While there she meets Scott Jackman, firefighter. The sparks fly between the two and before they know it they are having fansty sex together. Scott is after more with Jenny, but is trying to keep her traditional family happy. "Hot in Here" by Susan Lyons is the first erotic book that I have read and I really enjoyed it. This book have more than just sex in it. It is also about trying to break away from family and be your own person. Overall it was a great book, but a bit advice, this is book that should be read at home and not on your lunch break!

Hot In Here

Freelance journalist Jenny Yuen couldn't ask for a better assignment as she covers the Vancouver firemen's calendar model contest. During the wild and sexy competition, she is irresistibly drawn to one firefighter, Scott Jackman. His routine is so understated and unique, yet still oozing with real sensual heat, that it literally stops Jenny in her tracks. When Scott wins the coveted Mr. February slot, Jenny seizes her chance to get to know him. If she is a very lucky reporter, she will get more than just an interview! As the new guy at the firehouse, Scott was forced by his crew mates to enter the embarrassing contest. After winning, he can at least console himself with one of the many beautiful women waiting backstage. Although not normally his type, he is intrigued by the tiny Asian reporter and her 'interview' request. With a flip of her hair, not to mention an enticing belly ring, Scott is unable to resist the sexy dynamo. Before they can even make it out of the parking lot, the sparks are flying and blazing out of control. After their first incendiary encounter, they both want more. There's just one problem. Jenny's extremely traditional Chinese family would never approve of Scott. Always the dutiful daughter, Jenny does what she has done with all her non-Chinese lovers and keeps him a secret. A lover for exploring any sexual fantasy fits well into Jenny's life, or so she thinks. What happens when Scott wants more? Can they turn fantasy into reality? Combining sizzling hot sex and real emotional depth, Susan Lyons has penned another winner! Without a question, it is Hot in Here! As with her previous release, Champagne Rules, Ms. Lyons captures real modern women in extraordinarily sexy situations. Jenny is bold and spunky, but not without her faults. While I wanted to smack her for not pursuing her relationship more openly, I could understand her fears and reasoning. Besides, she has three wonderful friends willing to call her on it. Scott is perfect for Jenny. He understands her perspective, and it certainly doesn't hurt that he is a hunk and all around good guy. Their fantasies are HOT, HOT, HOT! Watching their relationship evolve through those fantasies is a delicious treat. A fun story that rings true, Hot in Here is a fabulous erotic read! This is the second story revolving around four girlfriends known as the Awesome Foursome, and I can't wait for the next! Cheryl Reviewed for Joyfully Reviewed

torrid Canadian erotic romance

Vancouver. Canada Reporter Jenny Yuen feels as if she is schizoid having to live "two" lives. On the one hand she must meet the expectations and ethics of her Chinese family; on the other hand she hides from her relatives her sexual inner self that would shock them at best and excommunicate her more likely. Her current assignment is to cover the firefighter calendar competition. Jenny would not mind having any of these hunks hose her down as each is perfect with muscles in all the right places. However, the gut of the journalist desires Mr. February, Scott Jackman whose hose she wants to play with. Scott has family pressures also as his German family wants him to come home to work the farm. Instead he would rather work Jenny who seems to be able to make all his blood rush to his lower head. As Jenny and Scott hook and ladder each other fulfilling one another's sexual fantasies and much more, neither cool down as sparks continue to reignite between them. HOT IN HERE, the second Canadian erotic romance (see Champagne Rules) is a torrid contemporary romance starring two delightful individuals with family pressure bringing a key other side to them. The story line may occur in British Columbia, but is equatorial hot as the lead couple finds love amidst achieving their sexual fantasies. Harriet Klausner

Super-sexy story with real character depth as well

Who says a girl can't mix a little fun with her work? So, when reporter Jenny Yuen gets a chance to write a story about the sexy fireman strip-off for a position in the fireman calendar (featuring scantilly clad firefighters), she grabs it. But firefighter Scott Jackman blows her away. Who would have guessed a tap-dancing strip could be so sexy. Jenny hasn't gotten where she is by letting others run over her, so she pushes her way into an interview with the fireman--an interview that is every bit as steamy as her imagination allows. Jenny and Jackman hit it off instantly, but Jenny knows there can be no future here. As a Chinese-Canadian, she'll never be able to break with tradition and actually date a European-Canadian. She proposes the fantasy rules--she and Scott will take turns coming up with fantasies--and it'll be up to the other to help them act them out. Of course, every one of those fantasies will lead to fantastic sex. In the meantime, Jenny comes up with an answer to the problem of parental pressure--finding the perfect Chinese-Canadian to date. Jenny and her three best girlfriends meet each Monday to discuss their lives and adventures. Until now, Suzanne has been queen of the stories but now Jenny can blow her friends away--except her friends start asking difficult questions. Questions like, is it really all right to lie to her parents? And worse, will Scott Jackman really put up with the fantasy rules forever--and what will Jenny do when he wants something more. Because one thing is certain--now that Scott has had a taste of Jenny, he definitely wants more. Author Susan Lyons continues her charming series with a novel that probes issues of prejudice and family at the same time as it delivers a super-sexy storyline. Jenny must first deal with her own prejudices--doubts that a blue-collar firefighter could possibly be anything more than a sex object for her. As she sees Scott for who he is, learns of his drive, his pain when he and his fellow firefighters cannot save everyone, and spends time with him, she begins to see that she must change her own life as well. Although Scott has a smaller character arc, he too grows through the story to become fully worthy of Jenny. Lyons uses the device of four friends for far more than setting up a chance to tell stories. With their different backgrounds and personalities, the four women can serve as both sympathetic sounding boards and a sort of collective conscience. If you're looking for something super-hot, but want a bit of substance as well, you won't go wrong with HOT IN HERE.
