Johnny Akbar Jepps, lead smokejumper for Mount Hood Aviation, is always first out of the plane, first into the fire, and first with the ladies. But the last thing he ever puts on the line? His heart. Until he meets a woman who simply rides away with it. Laura Jenson, wilderness guide and expert horsewoman, leads tourists from the Mount Hood Timberline Lodge into the wilds of Oregon. She knows the game and has no interest in some lady-killing, full-of-himself smokejumper. Not until Johnny lights her heart on fire. They both must take care not to get burned by the Wildfire at Dawn. --- Top 5 Romance of 2012 (I Own the Dawn) -NPR Top 10 Romance of 2012 (The Night is Mine) -Booklist Noble -Best 5 Romance of 2013 (Take Over at Midnight) –Barnes & Noble Best 10 Romance of Spring 2014 (Pure Heat) –Publishers Weekly The action and romance in this book will keep you glued to the pages.
