Alaska Spark

The Blazing Hearts Wildfire Series, Book 1

By: LoLo Paige

Narrated by: Tessa Flannery

Can a chance encounter on a wildfire lead to true love under the midnight sun?

Tara Waters loves being a wildland firefighter and the adrenaline rush of fighting wildfires is her calling. She must be on her game to join an elite hotshot crew in Montana. But when Tara is sent to fight fires in Alaska, her dream falls out of reach.

Sexy Alaskan smokejumper Ryan O'Connor takes Tara under his wing and counsels her when she fails to save someone on a wildfire. She owes him one, but not her heart just because of his irresistible charm and good looks. Ryan has his own story with plenty of demons in his past. And Tara may be the spark his life needs.

But when a mysterious adversary sabotages Tara on the fire line, she discovers a threat more dangerous than fire—a threat that can destroy everything she's worked for and second chance for love that could be extinguished before it ignites.

Narrator pronunciation

The story was great. I like how specific it is to Alaska, but the narrator pronounces some of the towns incorrectly, which is kind of frustrating:/

very authentic setting

the author seemed to have very authentic understanding of both Alaska and the. firefighting community which made this an enjoyable read

Slow at times

I thought the reader was pretty good, especially with accents. Excellent at the dialogue, but not as good with the reading part. The story was okay, just not great. I hope the villain wasn’t patterned after a real guy because if he was I fear he has or will be appointed as head of the BLM or USFS or the NPS. Where would this whole romance genre and many other genres be without narcissists and/or sociopaths?
