I have been a fan of Lynette Eason's writing since I read her first book. They are full of mystery and suspense like you wouldn't believe! But you know how it is when a new series comes out and you are unsure if you will like it or not? That is how I felt with this one. I liked the former series with the detectives and police officers so I was undecided about this one with a smokejumper. Read below to find out how I liked it!!

To start off, there is a detective in this book as well so it kind of made me like it better:) And Hunter is not only a detective, but a really nice detective! One of the good guys that makes you feel good all over. After Alexia has an incident while doing her job, she takes some time off attend a reunion. Needless to say, she is still in trouble, or at least, she gets in trouble. From there it spins off into so many different directions you have to pay close attention.

One thing I really liked is that Lynette didn't just leave her previous characters behind, but you find out that Alexia is a friend of Serena, who was in the previous series. I enjoy when an author brings back characters from previous books. Makes you feel like they haven't really left:) This book is full of suspense and at times I thought the bad guy was a certain someone but come to find out, it was someone totally different. The end is left somewhat hanging so you have to read the next book. If you like a good mystery, or the book that makes you read late into the night to find out the ending, this is the book for you! After reading this book, I am still a fan of Lynette Eason!!

Available February 2012 at your favorite bookseller from Revell, a division of Baker Publishing Group.
