Publisher Description
Fire rains from above as they fight to discover the truth and stay alive.
In the shadow of a threatening volcano, long-haul trucker Kit Garrido wakes up in her crashed big rig, unable to recall what happened or why she's suddenly in possession of someone's baby. Fiercely independent, she has to admit that perhaps this time she could use a little help.
As the threat of eruption grows, former cop Cullen Landry refuses to leave his cabin in the evacuation area, which is why he's the only one left who can help Kit escape the crumpled cab of her truck. He doesn't want to get tangled up in the mystery of the beautiful woman with an abandoned infant, but when he sees the bullet hole in the windshield and the bloody handprint on the interior, he realizes that he's in this thing, like it or not.
When two armed men with ill intent approach, the race is on to stay alive, discover the truth, and find the baby's missing mother--all while a deadly mountain rains fire from above.

Riveting Romantic Suspense
This page-turner packed with unrelenting action and emotionally gripping suspense hooked me from the beginning and kept me reading excitedly to the end! It is the kind of book that immerses you in the fictional world of the story and makes it feel real! Female trucker Kit, ex-cop Cullen, and precious abandoned baby "Tot" headline the wonderfully crafted cast of characters. I love these characters and admire their perseverance and courage. A skillfully portrayed genuine setting and vivid descriptions of volcanic activity and precursors are amazing and heighten the suspense and danger. Bits of humor, strategically placed, provide emotional relief amidst seemingly impossible, unescapable danger. Kit and Cullen's slowly evolving romantic relationship, that kept me rooting for a happy ending, deepens the story's emotional impact. I appreciate how the author seamlessly weaves faith into the narrative. I totally enjoyed this story and just added this book to my Best Romantic Suspense Reads Ever list!
