Editoral Review
Burn by Helen Hardt is a scorchingly seductive read that will leave you feeling hot under the collar. Published on February 14, 2017, Burn is part of the Fahrenheit series, which features the love stories of three brothers: Dante, Gabe, and Jett.
Hardt’s erotic romance novels invite readers to explore the intense relationships that develop between her characters, exploring themes of passion, desire, and the intricacies of human connection. In Burn, we follow the story of Jett, a successful businessman who is haunted by his past.
When he meets a gorgeous woman, named Heaven, in a restaurant, he finds that his desires are reawakening. Heaven, a journalist, is desperately searching for her missing sister and believes that Jett may be able to help her.
As they begin to work together, Jett and Heaven’s connection deepens, and they discover that they share a powerful attraction. However, as they delve deeper into the mystery of Heaven’s sister’s disappearance, they uncover dangerous secrets that threaten to tear them apart.
Hardt’s writing is both sensual and eloquent, drawing readers into the steamy, intense relationships that unfold between her characters. The chemistry between Jett and Heaven is scorchingly hot, and their love scenes are undoubtedly some of the most steamy I’ve ever read.
Hardt’s skillful writing elevates the erotic romance genre, imbuing it with depth, heart, and emotion. In terms of character development, Hardt does an excellent job of exploring the intricate motivations and backstories of her characters.
Jett is an intriguing and complex protagonist whose haunted past adds depth and tension to the romantic storyline. Meanwhile, Heaven is a determined journalist who is fiercely committed to finding her sister, making her a strong and compelling protagonist in her own right.
One of the book’s strengths is its pacing, which is both smooth and exhilarating. Hardt keeps readers on the edge of their seats, balancing suspense and romance in a way that keeps the story moving forward.
The novel’s setting is also well-crafted, providing an atmospheric backdrop for the suspenseful plot to unfold. However, one weakness of the book is that some of the plot twists and turns feel a bit contrived at times.
The central mystery of the story is engaging, but the resolution feels somewhat rushed and unsatisfying. Overall, Burn is a must-read for fans of erotic romance novels.
Hardt’s writing is evocative and engaging, and her characters are well-drawn and complex. While there are some flaws in the plot, the scorching chemistry between Jett and Heaven makes this novel a steamy and satisfying read.
I would recommend Burn to anyone who loves a sexy, suspenseful love story. Rating: 4/5
