Description

Divorcee Rider Grayson left his high-powered job at a multi-million-dollar firm in Dallas, retreating to his hometown of Hellfire, Texas to start over. A mechanic in his own auto repair business and a volunteer firefighter, he just wants to be left alone to do what he does best, fixing things.

Selena Sanchez has daydreamed about Rider Grayson since she was a little girl growing up on the Grayson Ranch as the foreman’s daughter. She accepts she’ll never have him as they come from completely different backgrounds and cultures. They are worlds apart even though they work practically across the street from each other.

When a turf war flares around the convenience store, Rider steps in to protect Selena and discovers the little girl who dogged his teenaged footsteps is all grown up and one hot little spitfire. Together they feed the flames of their passion while fighting the factions who would tear them apart in Hellfire, Texas.

Warning: Flames are spreading in Hellfire, Texas.

  • Love Rider & Selena’s story

    I just love this series, and Smoldering Desire was no different. Rider Grayson is just trying to get by after a disastrous marriage to the absolutely wrong woman. Selena, though she’s always wanted Rider, thinks he’s out of her league, so she’s focused on school and avoiding her ex, who she really didn’t stay with long anyway, but who doesn’t want to take no for an answer. I really enjoyed watching them figure their relationship out, not to mention their families figure it all out…..which was a cool take on it also. Elle James really pulls me into her world and I hate when the books end cause I’m never ready for it!
  • Sweet and a little steamy!

    This is book 3 in the Hellfire series and it features Rider and Selena. No matter where you go or what you do while you’re gone, home will always be where your heart is. These two grew up together and it took years of him being away to see what a beautiful “woman” she’d grown into. This is a sweet and a little bit steamy romance. It deals with a small amount of racism and what the definition of family is. The story line is great with fantastic characters. I could have stayed in the presence of Rider Grayson for much longer. I can’t wait to read the next book from this fantastic author.
