Blog Tour: Beautiful Burn by Adriane Leigh

I've broken him, bent him, and burned him, and each fevered moment was worth every ounce of pain. 

Auburn Lawrence has loved her English teacher, Reed West, since she was sixteen. Through brainstorming stories, reading classic literature, and plenty of fiery banter, they've forged a bond that neither of them expected. 

Propelled by a chance encounter after her graduation, they discover just how deep their connection runs, but love requires more than chemistry to flourish. They spend three electrifying summer months discovering each other under a veil of forbidden passion and desperate lust before they learn that the unattainable is often destined to remain exactly that.

By the time temperatures dip and snowflakes fly, their relationship will face a deep freeze that threatens to snap the bond they thought they shared, shattering their lives one secret at a time.

Intended for mature audiences.

Beautiful Burn is a standalone, full-length novel.

Holy Hotness. I was a bit nervous starting this book, thinking--"oh, so taboo!" But it was far from it. These two were way past legal age, so their story made it OK and it is HOT!

Mr. Reed West. Such a hot dirty, talking teacher! Auburn has known Mr. West since she was sixteen--but nothing inappropriate happened between the two. They shared a bond. I really did connect with these two immediately; there is clearly chemistry between the two and it wasn't  at all sexual, it was deeper. These two shared a passion of writing and reading. 

Years later, these two reconnect, but the timing and situations weren't right. But these two couldn't be apart. Their three-month affair is smoking! But outside factors coming roaring in and cause a lot of drama and angst for these two.

Overall, Beautiful Burn is a story filled with passion, love, hurt and sadness. It's a great quick read that will make you smile, blush and think "what a great love story."
