Sassy Zoe Larkin began her life in a hippie commune and defied the residents of Barrington's Pass with her wild ways that gained her a tainted reputation. For 10 years she has kept to her list in overcoming her nefarious reputation and fit in as a valued citizen holding an assistant manager's job at the elegant Alpine Sky Lodge, a ski resort. Zoe is assigned the duty of encouraging a local saloon owner to sell his property for the expansion of their new proposed golf course. Jason "Jase" Garrett, Rusty Wire Saloon owner and previous Olympic gold medal winner for skiing, lost all ambition and the will to succeed due to his guilt at the death of his best friend, Adam. Pulling out of all competition he is content to lay back and provide jobs in his saloon for Jennifer and Russ, Adam's widow and father, to assuage his guilt. Jase's response to Zoe's offer was a flat "No". Playing cat and mouse games in trying to persuade him to sell escalates when a suspicious fire is started, shots fired and other incidents seeming to lead to Zoe. Eventually eliminating her as the suspect, Jase has to admit he is completely aroused by the sexy woman, and Zoe feels a panty melting lust every time she is around him. Her attempt at pursuing her boss as her "textbook man" is ditched as it becomes evident she desires the sexy renegade instead. The forceful push to sell becomes a matter of life and death for Jase and he stands to lose everything, including Zoe. Strap in for all the excitement and hot sex you can stand. This fast moving suspenseful tale includes mystery and sex that is guaranteed to whet your libido. Once I picked GOLD FIRE, I confess all I could do was read until I finally turned the last page. Starr Ambrose creates a tantalizing and exciting story that is sure to capture your attention. Very well written and a creative story line.

SUMMARY

Seal the deal with a kiss. Zoe Larkin is facing the biggest career opportunity of her life, and she’s not going to let Jase Garrett ruin it for her. The infuriatingly sexy owner of the Rusty Wire, the hottest honky-tonk saloon in Barringer’s Pass, flat-out refuses to sell his bar and its surrounding land to her employer, the Alpine Sky ski resort. If Zoe can convince the stubborn cowboy to change his mind, she’ll not only impress her rich, handsome boss, but maybe—just maybe—people in town will finally start to take her seriously. When the Rusty Wire becomes the repeated target of violent intimidation tactics, though, the spunky redhead’s meticulous to-do lists and conservative blazers are no defense against her wild child reputation. The only person who understands what it takes to forget the past is standing between her and the future. But is it the future she wants? Or will Jase’s electric kiss ignite a fire in her heart for the life she truly desires?
