Chasing Fire

by Nora Roberts, 472 pages

Rowan Tripp followed in her famous father's footsteps and risks her life through the Montana dry season as a smoke jumper.  She has a rule to never get romantically involved with anyone on her team and follows it religiously until she meets one of this year's new recruits, Gull Curry.  Gull tempts her to break her rules, and a little back up is just what Rowan needs as an already dangerous job heats up with a little man made destruction.

This book was excitement from beginning to end.  I'm always amazed at how quickly Roberts sells me on her characters- it never takes more that a couple of chapters before I'm hooked.  I had a pretty good idea of whodunit midway through the book, but that didn't stop the suspense from building.  This is a great summer read, so pick it up if you're headed on vacation (or just wish you were!)
