“Here’s what critics are saying about this novel:
“Gwyneth Bolton certainly doesn’t skimp on the heat level in her newest release MAKE IT HOT. Samantha and Joel have spirited natures and seem to take great delight in antagonizing each other. They’re a fun couple to read about and kept me smiling through each ‘confrontation.’ Samantha’s relationship with her mother really struck a chord with me. So many people choose alcohol to dull their pain of loss never realizing the devastation it causes their loved ones. There’s plenty of action, fun, and emotional context to ensure readers’ become immersed in this storyline and remain enchanted through to the end. The Hightower brothers are honorable, loyal men who make a girl dream of finding her own hero.” ~ Chrissy Dionne of Romance Junkies, 5 Blue Ribbons
“Bolton combines the sexy allure of the Hightower family with the determination of Samantha Dash. Samantha turns her sad past into a promising future as she learns to forgive and finally embrace the idea of new relationships. Joel learns how to enjoy life while opening his heart to others. The supporting cast of characters adds humor and drama to the storyline. MAKE IT HOT is a fast paced, easy to read romance that will make you talk out loud to the characters (Aunt Sophie especially) and remind you why family gatherings are so enjoyable. Hopefully, Bolton will keep supplying us with loving stories of the Hightower’s for years to come.” ~ Monique Bruner “The Delta Reviewer” of The Real Page Turners, 5 Stars
“MAKE IT HOT will make you feel the heat between Joel and Samantha as their relationship goes from patient/client, friends to lovers. As their relationship developed, both characters were forced to make drastic decisions about their careers and about themselves. I enjoyed the first book and found this one to be twice as entertaining. This is a series that should not be passed over and I eagerly wait to read the next story.” ~ Priscilla C. Johnson, APOOO Book Club, 4.5 Stars

Guilt inflicted by her alcoholic mother concerning her own police officer father's death has caused her to shy away from men with dangerous jobs. When Joel is assigned to Samantha, he's a bitter, grouchy man. Can they overcome their obstacles to be together?” ~ Debbie Sims, Romantic Times Book Review, 4 Stars”
