Tanna Barker experienced a disastrous injury that has
manifested into a full-blown phobia of horses. She has lost
her love for barrel racing as the rest of her world falls
apart. Unexpectedly, her mother dies, then her father
remarries and has sold the ranch, leaving her feeling
adrift with no real purpose.
She stumbles on August Fletcher, a veterinarian in a hot
one-night stand but after that explosive night of
chemistry, both of them are wondering if this could be
something more. Fletch soon finds out that Tanna is staying
in Muddy Gap and makes it his personal goal to convince her
they should be together. However, Tanna's spit-fire
personality will definitely put up some barriers that
Fletch needs to go through first.
As expected, Lorelei James provides readers with a hot
romance that will singe-
your-eyebrows and which delves deeper than ever
before. TURN AND BURN is not simply about overcoming the
fear of falling in love; it also deals with facing your
fears. Loyalty and courage are two things addressed in this
novel, making it universally relatable for all readers.
Both characters turned out to be more than I expected.
James creates such richly nuanced characters that are
multidimensional and shockingly real.
In addition to that, James provides updates on past
characters, creating a bigger picture while also
solidifying the familial aspect to this series that has
made it so successful. I loved the way James integrated the
past characters into this storyline. Romantic love isn't
the only kind of love you get in this book. There's also
friendship and family that strengthens this series.
James has another winner on her hands. With clever dialogue
and endearing characters, there is no question that readers
will fall both in lust and love for TURN AND BURN.
