Heat of Passion by Elle Kennedy is one sexy book. Is there anything sexier than a man in uniform? I had no idea this was part two of the Out of Uniform/Heat series, not that it’s necessary to read part one first, but wow!  Now I have to go play catch up. Characters are very well written, and there is some great world building going on in this novel. I really hope Ms. Kennedy continues this line.
