Cate Madigan is going to school to be a teacher. She works nights in a bar and keeps her distance from the male customers until Kellen McBride walks in one night. Kellen is persistent though. His persistence pays off when Cate actually needs him. Cate is trying to deter a guy named Pugg who desperately wants to be her boyfriend. She’s also trying to get her family to stop setting her up with the wrong guys. When her roommate Marty appears to be involved in something shady and bad guys start knocking on their condo door, Cate decides that having Kellen around is not a bad thing, especially since he’s an ex cop. The fact that he’s really hot isn’t a bad thing either!

Hot Stuff is funny, suspenseful and romantic. I loved it!  Kellen is sexy and charming and Cate is a sweetheart. Cate’s family and friends are a blast as well.  I read Hot Stuff while relaxing on the beach and it made a great day that much better!
