Let the fever burn…

Fashion blogger Carly Pendleton figured the “Sexiest Average Joe” winner would be, well, sexy. But up close, fireman Joe Tedesco is insanely good looking.

He tells himself it's just the 'hero' thing, that they're worlds apart – until a sizzling kiss flips both their worlds upside down. Now Clay's mission has been compromised in the wickedest way imaginable…

What Jordan doesn't know is that Cole made a deal with his buddies: get some hot–'n'–heavy action from the Keno girl, or pay up! But Cole doesn't need an incentive.
