Publisher's summary

One night. That's all it was supposed to be...

Reeling from the sudden loss of her sister, Haddie Montgomery has sworn off relationships. All she wanted from Beckett Daniels was a sexy distraction to help her escape her pain for just a little while. There weren't supposed to be any strings attached - so why can't she shake the memory of that unforgettable night from her thoughts? Or the taste of his kiss from her lips?

No matter how hard Haddie tries to forget about him, Becks relentlessly tries to prove that she should start living for today. But she is determined to avoid romantic commitment, and she can always use her ex-boyfriend's reappearance to help snuff out the slow burn within her that Becks has sparked.

Or will fate force her to realize that this kind of connection doesn’t come along very often and a chance at love is worth the risk?

Best book out of the series

I loved Colton and Rhylee's story but I fell in love with Colton and Becks. Their story had passion and love and compassion. And you just couldn't help falling in love with Beckett a little more each time.

Another amazing K. Bromberg novel!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Absolutely. K. Bromberg brought something refreshing, yet emotional, gut wrenching, and sexy to a genre that is over-wrought with same-ol, same-ol.

Who was your favorite character and why?

KB does such a great job of developing both leading characters that it's hard to choose one, but, tender yet take-no-crap-alpha Beckett is just too hot not to love as the favorite. The narration was perfect. Too often I feel the male narrators reading the female parts fall short. The narration from both POV's made the listen an easy one, rather than being a distraction.

Which scene was your favorite?

Can't really reply without a spoiler, but the "ladybug" scene for the drama, as well as the epilogue. Holy hell. :-)

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Hrmph.. :-) Yes, both. Heart-wrenching scenes were inter-woven into the playful, intelligent banter that made me smile and sometimes laugh out loud.

Any additional comments?

I blew threw this book entirely too quickly, and am having amaz-book withdrawals. I highly recommend this listen, as with the others KB has written. I've read them all. Future books will be auto-downloads from this author for me. Absolutely worth the credit. The only reason I gave the story 4 stars was the back and forth, push and pull that went on maybe one time too many. In all fairness, however, I'm not sure the book could have been written without each one. The back and forth has just been done too many times, too often by other authors and I'm probably a little over-sensitive about this.

Interesting

The story was a bit sad. But it was relatable. The performances were very good. Good book!

This story was so good! BUT-

I totally hated when the female character imitated the male characters voice. I really had to push through it in the beginning but it got better towards the end when he spoke more. I looooved this story. It was very moving!

A MUST READ

WOW I didn't think I could love anyone more than Colton Donovan (Driven Trilogy) but Becks gives him a run for his money! What an emotional ride... I laughed, I cried, and I LOVED every minute of it!

Fantastic!

This was an exceptional romance that had me captivated from the moment I pressed play. I love emotionally charged books and this series is one of the best I've read in a while. I felt all of Haddie & Becks emotions; the happiness, the loss, the heartache, the fear and excitement, the longing and their love for each other. You won't find this sexy story lacking! Bromberg dives deep into the topic of breast cancer and the overwhelming devastation that families go through. Slow Burn will definitely pull on your heart strings and not let go until the very end. This is a MUST READ!! Kelly Ashton & Abel Cantwell do an amazing job portraying the characters, bringing them to life and humanizing them with their emotions, attitude and personality.

LOVE LOVE LOVE the Driven Series

I cant get enough of these books. I prefer Ryles and Colton stories but Haddie and Becks was good as well.

Amazing!!!

If you could sum up Slow Burn in three words, what would they be?

I would have to say this was the best book in the entire set. I would describe it as heartbreaking , love, and forever! This hit so close to home for me that the way it was written made my face hurt from smiling to tears rolling down my face....

What was one of the most memorable moments of Slow Burn?

Talking to her sisters husband about he would not trade on second of the time he got to spend with her before her death.

What does Kelly Ashton and Abel Cantwell bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

The raw emotions in Kelly's voice made me feel she was Hattie telling her story and Abel was smooth thru out.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, If I could I would. I even changed my work schedule to listen more.

let down

loved the other books but this one was a broken record with Haddie's thoughts. no real story at all and way too predictable.

Excellent book!

Absolutely loved this book! It had me laughing at times and crying at times! Great story line! I've already told all my friends and family about it! Didn't want it to end! The narrators also did an excellent job!
