What a scorching read!!! Jo Davis has captured another reader in her grasp, and has made my "auto buy" list. She has reeled me in hook, line, and sinker. Trial by Fire grabbed my attention from the first page until the last...and her hero, Howard "Six Pack" Paxton is to die for!! He is our tortured hero in the story rising from an abusive childhood to be a dominant, understanding, caring man.
Kat, our heroine, is a school teacher who is just what Howard needs...she shows him understanding without pitying him, knows just the right buttons to push to get this gentle giant to revel things about himself that no one else knows, and brings joy into his life. The passion between Howard and Kat is sizzling hot and burnt up the pages.
The mystery behind the story is that someone is burning women in vacant houses in Station Five's district. And the killer has involved Howard personally by sending him trinkets of the women. The answers to the mystery aren't too obvious. In the middle of the story, I figured out who the murderer was, but I wasn't quite sure of why. Even if you guess the ending, the story is still a thrill ride you won't want to miss. It was definitely a page-turner for me!!
I loved the way the secondary characters were woven into the story...just enough mystery surrounding them to make me anxious for the next book...Under Fire.
