Who is Cleveland Alexander? He’s a sexy firefighter from Atlanta, Ga. He doesn’t believe love is in his future and he wasn’t too excited to see his brother get married for a second time to multi-millionaire Jill Atkinson. Read all about Cleveland in More Than He Can Handle. But before you pick up the book Publishers Weekly calls a “steamy romance,” check out where Cleveland first made his impact in The Business of Love. Jill Atkinson has a successful business, good friends, and the respect of the Atlanta corporate community--everything except a good man. When a sexy firefighter, Darren Alexander, saves her from a blaze at her condo, Jill decides to lie about her job rather than risk scaring another guy away. When the truth comes to light, will she lose everything?

Publisher's Weekly review of "More Than He Can Handle."

Image
More Than He Can Handle Cheris Hodges. Dafina, $6.99 (352p) ISBN 978-0-7582-3151-2 Hodges (Let's Get It On) delivers a sizzling romance between sharp, demanding New Orleans hotel owner Winfred “Freddie” Barker and arrogant firefighter and confirmed bachelor Cleveland Alexander. After they meet at the wedding of their best friends, their champagne-fueled one-night stand turns into a tumultuous affair. Freddie's certain that Cleveland is commitment-phobic like her father, an unreliable ex-con, while Cleveland seethes at Freddie's explosive temper and scornful attitude. Various subplots, including Cleveland's difficulties at work and Freddie's frequent sparring with her friend Lillian, interrupt the swift pacing, but the sensual love scenes are plentiful and vividly executed, and the believable, three-dimensional characters keep things moving.
