So I have a pet peeve, don't some of you? I mean I am usually a go with the flow type of gal, not just the accidental deletion of a full blog type of eerk, I am talking about while reading, I have heard some say Grammar drives them bonkers and double words and such but those are easily passed right over by me! By the way, my grammar is AWFUL!! I am well aware! Lol
Mine is the use of the word Firemen/Fireman, now in certain instances like talking specifically about a male firefighter then yes by all means, "he is one fine looking fireman!" But in general when speaking about a group of individuals or crew of whichever, "with this group of Firemen". Not all firefighters are male, I happen to know some absolutely amazing female firefighters! (Yes I am partial, not that I am amazing, just the amount of work and heinie busting I put myself through to obtain that title, I think I can put myself in with some of these women!) I know this is just me and I usually just read it as I want just to not upset myself, not sure exactly why it upsets me, but thought I would vent this out because, most authors enjoy feedback and of course I would hope they would take this into consideration while writing.. I know I know, lighten up, or I hear it's a small thing, oh well, ok, onto the goods.. Plus, I really want them all to continue writing, because their are not to many authors out there that will take these types of stories on...ok, and moving on....
I have read most of these titles in the last Month or so..
Lila Ashe "Fire at Dawn", "Fire at Twilight", "Fire at Dusk"
I read on Lila Ashe's bio that she is a dispatcher, first of all Kudos for your amazing work, I am certain you are appreciated by your community and you have my utmost respect... I happened to stumble across most of these author just simply by looking for a good Firefighter romance. Now all three books later, I am ready for more of her writing... All three have made it to the top of my recommend list!!

Next are other titles I have read:
Jesse Evans " Melt with You"
Fire and Icing, hot and cold, sweet and Spicy, woo wee, the next two are waiting patiently for me to read... These are high on my recommend list also, without giving too much away, if you love a great love story then this is a read for you, oh and what sounds like a couple pretty to look at firefighters!! (Yes I said pretty)

Anne Marsh " Crash and Burn"
This was a great little read, story story that really did leave me wanting it to continue, (I have to do some more research and see if this continues, haven't checked yet, I know, should have done my research already) but if you want a smaller read to tNgle you up for bit then this is the read to take up that time..
