Description
Callie McClain is back in Montana after a twelve year absence to care for her ailing father, despite the fact she can’t stand the cold and isolation. But in an ironic twist of fate, it seems Montana is finally giving her what she wants—blistering heat and a fiery glow that threatens to incinerate everything in its path. Wildfire. The only thing hotter than the advancing flames is the smokejumper who comes to her rescue, and suddenly Callie is finding reasons why Montana might just have everything she’s ever wanted.
Tyler Dodson can’t recall a time when he didn’t want to be a smokejumper. There’s nothing as dangerous—or as exhilarating—as jumping, until he rescues a pretty veterinarian from an advancing wildfire. He knows he shouldn’t get involved. He doesn’t need that kind of complication in his life, and distractions of any kind can be deadly in his line of work. So why can’t he keep his mind – and his hands – off of Callie McClain?

In Heat, Karen Foley has written a a sweet short story with a nice touch of sexy thrown in for good measure. Book 4 in the Firefighters of Montana series, Heat delivers readers right into the wildfire zone with the smokejumpers who are the centrepiece of the series. is short, sweet and just a touch sexy.
In telling the story of Tyler and Callie Karen Foley provides a glimpse of just what it is that smokejumpers do. There's the appeal of all that manly muscle, but seriously, these guys are amazing!
This story works equally well a a stand alone or as part of the series. I zipped through it. Perfect weekend reading.
Heat by Karen Foley is book 4 in the Firefighters of Montana Series. I have been reading this series backwards, which makes for saying the book reads well as a stand-alone. This story has quite a bit of fire fighting in it that caused my heart jump in my throat a time or two. It was realistic causing me to think to see how fast lives could be lost while going against a wildfire. The author called the fire a dragon at one point which I could clearly imagine. The romance was no less true, maybe more so when life becomes so very precious.
This story just flowed and while Tyler and Callie seemed to fall for each other rather quickly, I still found it completely believable. These are two of the most likable book characters that one could meet, so of course, I was pulling for them to find a way to make it work. They both had issues with their fathers that were on the way to being resolved which added to the story. The only part that was too quick for me was the ending that felt rushed. It was how I wanted it to end, but as a reader I would just have liked to see it expanded more.
An ARC of the book was given to me by the publisher through Net Galley.
Heart stopping action from the onset, with more building throughout the story. The alpha smokejumper is hot, the heroine strong and independent, but together they ignite the pages. There is plenty to keep you on the edge of your seat and turning the pages. I was certainly engaged from beginning to end. Since this is the first story I've read in the Firefighters of Montana series, and if all the characters are nearly as captivating as Tyler and Callie, I need to begin at the beginning of the series and catch up on what I've missed.
This book was provided by the Publisher and Netgalley, I am voluntarily providing my honest review.
Calle, the wolf girl, and Tyler the firefighter, make a good couple. Overall I did like the book, and wanted to read through to the end. The struggle I had a bit was the writing, as I tended to hear the author's voice instead of the characters at times. Also, seemed to be a lot of details discussing the history from previous books, that I didn't feel was needed. This was the first book that I read in the series, although it is number 4, and the details meant little to me. Would recommend this story, as it makes a fun quick read. Good read for the beach or a rainy afternoon.
Really great book and my first by Foley but it won't be my last.
Callie , A vet, returned to take care of family however when a wildfire endangers her life, she meets Tyler, the smokejumper sent in to save them. Again love the community and the progression of these characters as they deal with the job and changes to follow their hearts.
Ebook from netgalley and publishers with thanks. Opinions are entirely my own.
