🔥 Cherry Red by Darlene Fredette Review! 🔥
•
Synopsis:
A fake relationship.
A girl who swore off firefighters.
A guy who wants her.
Carly Redd made a promise to herself to never get involved with another firefighter. Not after that tragic night that caused all her fears to come true.
Now, Carly’s focused on expanding her ice cream business and creating new ice cream flavours. However, her past is back in the form of her ex, and to make matters worse, he’s engaged and throwing an engagement party. Carly has to attend, but going without a date is a sure way to get people talking.
Noah Harding knows there is a rule set in place between the firefighters, never flirt or date the Chief’s daughter. That rule goes out the door when he agrees to fake date Carly Redd, at least until the party.
Getting Carly to trust Noah is like a wildfire that can’t be put out, but Carly knows that Noah won’t stop until he has her trust. Everyone knows Noah is the fire to her ice, but it’s up to Carly to open her heart and take the step she promised never to take again.

My Review:
(Thank you to the NetGalley team for allowing me to read and review this ARC!)
I always love a story involving firefighters, and Cherry Red was no exception! 😍
I loved the concept of the story, and I even enjoyed the personalities of the two main characters, Noah and Carly.
As for the side-characters, I did find it disappointing that they didn’t get involved in the story as much as I hoped they would, they always add a certain depth to a book that makes it more immersive! 🤗
The two main characters definitely had chemistry between them, but the relationship escalated rather quickly. It would’ve been a bit more realistic if their relationship had more time to develop and grow that would have created a deeper connection, even for the reader.
I still loved the story though! There was definite potential in this book, and I liked Darlene Fredette’s writing style! My eyes will be open to her other books! 🦋
I would recommend this book to those who love fast reads, insta-love, and a bit of romance! 💛
My Rating: 2.5/5 ✨
