When western Alaska erupts in a devastating fire, the elite firefighting crew of the Jude County Smokejumpers is called in to save the day. They'll do anything to stop the fire, including fighting alongside a crew of local prisoners. The last thing they expect is a jailbreak, and when the prisoners disappear into the forest with one of their own, they'll have to fight not only the fire but for the freedom of their friends...during the summer of the burning sky. FBI Agent Rio Parker is tired of playing the bad guy, even if it is for a good reason. Undercover with a group of prisoners to babysit a federal informant, he can't believe he's been enlisted to fight a forest fire...or sucked into a prison break. Worse - a female smokejumper has been kidnapped. Now, he'll have to protect her from a rapist, keep his informant from escaping, and stay out of the gunsights of the US Marshal hot on his trail. Smokejumper Skye Doyle knew trouble was brewing when the group of prisoners joined the firefight. She never expected, however, to be kidnapped during their breakout. But can she trust a hardened felon to keep her safe? Except, Rio is not who he seems, and when his identity is uncovered, she must decide if she can trust a man who has been lying to her.... But staying alive on the run isn't their only problem. They'll have to learn to trust each other if they hope to survive in the second book of the Summer of the Burning Sky. Light My Fire (Summer of the Burning Sky, Book 1) Some Like It Hot (Summer of the Burning Sky, Book 3.)… (plus d'informations)

The action continues in Susan May Warren’s second book in the Summer of The Burning Sky series. The novella length of The Heat Is On may be short on pages, but it is long on adrenaline-laced suspense and sizzling romance. The story takes up somewhere in the middle of book 1, but this time the focus is on Skye, a smokejumper, and Rio Parker, one of the men in the prison work detail. As they are drawn into the prison-break, they must join forces to stay alive.

Not everything is as it seems with Rio Parker. Skye senses that and feels sure that a light lives on deep inside. Readers will love the hot, hot chemistry between the two. Rest assured that The Heat Is On is Christian fiction (no graphic or inappropriate behavior), but there is definitely heat between the two. Both characters live with regrets that influence their current actions. Skye lives with the regret of unforgiveness and Rio with past actions he believed justify the end results of justice. As the danger increases, they come to rely on each other and on God. Psalm 23 and the pursuit by God is the message that runs throughout. The suspense keeps the reader on the edge of her seat; I loved every minute of it! A lot of the storyline introduced first in book 1 and continued in The Heat Is On is resolved. But . . . enough is left leaving me eagerly awaiting book 3, Some Like It Hot, releasing August 2018.

The Heat Is On is the perfect accompaniment for a weekend of fun reading. Make sure to read book 1, Light My Fire, first though. You won’t want to miss out on any of this series.

Recommended.

Audience: adults.
