Lives are on the line at Engine 6 … and so are hearts.
Newly-minted firefighter Abby Sullivan is exactly where she wants to be: Chicago Fire Department’s Engine 6, the station where her mom blazed a trail as one of the first female firefighters in the city. The first to fall in the line of duty, too. All Abby wants is to succeed, but that’s a tough proposition when people only see a feel-good story, a token woman failing at a man’s job, or the princess in need of protection. And the man tasked with watching her six?
Lieutenant Roman Rossi, the one person she can’t let close.
Having the daughter of his boss and nemesis under his wing shouldn’t be a problem for Roman—he’s a professional and can treat her like any other firefighter rookie. Except she happens to be the gorgeous woman he once shared a slice of cherry pie with, followed by the hottest, sweetest, most pulse-pounding kiss of his life. He didn’t know her name but he had planned to find out.
Now Roman knows exactly who Abby is: a threat to his self-control more dangerous than a five-alarm blaze. Lust has no place in the firehouse, and a distraction like Abby with her electric blue eyes, waves of flame-red hair, and freckles Roman wants to map with his tongue, is one he can ill afford.
Because one wrong move … and it could all go up in smoke.
Up in Smoke is the first in the brand new Hot in Chicago Rookies series about firefighters navigating the trials of new jobs and sizzling romances as they find their place in the world and the love of a lifetime.

I enjoyed this story and I liked Roman and Abby. Roman was a hot single dad and I enjoyed his relationship with his daughter. I did like Abby, but I felt she pushed Roman away a little too much for my taste in an effort to keep from getting hurt. I never felt she was all in with him and would have liked to see them together after she fully gave in to their love. I did think the book was a little slow burn for my taste. It took a long time for them to give in to their feelings for each other, because of everything at stake. But overall, the book was entertaining and I enjoyed it. It kept my attention and I wanted more at the end.
Overall, I liked Up in Smoke. I enjoyed Roman and Abby's story and was happy they got their happily ever after together. I enjoyed this new world and see lots of potential for this series. I look forward to it and more from Ms. Meader in the future!
