Tiana, a priestess, is looking to move up within the Priestess of the Lord and the Lady. She is offered two options; one is to move to another temple, the second is to work with the architect who is building a cathedral for the religion that Tiana's family was persecuted for belonging to.
Tiana's family lost everything due to the persecution. Even though she has worked hard to put her feelings behind her, Tiana will have to deal with emotions she thought tucked away.
Antenn is an architect who is an adopted member of the Clover family. Nonetheless, he is anxious to establish himself and this commission with the Intersection of Hope will allow him to accomplish his goals.
As others work to prevent the building of the cathedral, political pressure is brought to bear by the man who ruined Tiana's family.
HEART FIRE is the book twelve in the Celta series. Ms. Owens has done a great job of keeping each one fresh. While certain themes carry through each novel and we see recurrent characters, each book has its differences.
In HEART FIRE, Ms. Owens deals with the theme of religious persecution and the emotional trauma of those who suffer it. The reader is caught up as Tiana gets a fam and discovers her heart mate.
I've read this series since the first book and look forward to each new one.
On the planet Celta, accepting a HeartMate can be the
greatest challenge in the universe...
Antenn, an architect hired to build a cathedral in Druida
City, dares not think of his HeartMate. Even though he
yearns for her, heβs taken steps to ensure she will be
forever unknown to him. After all, how could he, a
commoner
who grew up in the slums, the brother of a murderer, be
worthy of any woman?
Tiana, a priestess, has her own fears about being a
HeartMate. She's watched her friends struggle with such a
stormy destiny. She's sure her HeartMate has never claimed
her due to a terrible scandal involving her Family, and
she's set aside hopes for love.
Antenn's gotten the commission of his life. The cathedral
will make him famous, but more, it will last for ages and
prove to others he can contribute to Celta...if the
controversial structure isn't destroyed while being built.
Tiana, too, is an integral part of this process, but the
villain who wrecked her Family is ready with firebombs.
Can
they trust each other in dangerous circumstances to
succeed...and to love?
