Firefighters of Station Five
review 1: I'm seriously annoyed with myself for accidentally reading the last book in the series first. Yes, laziness caused this when I could have easily Googled the reading order. Anyway, that annoyance aside, I really liked this book. The cast of characters is intriguing and I liked this hero/heroine combination. He's older and caucasian, she's young, strong, smart, beautiful, and of mixed ethnicity. I like how their differences didn't matter to them or their friends, but were mentioned to let the reader know they existed.The bad guy was really bad, with a history that made things interesting. The only thing that annoyed me were the flashbacks because I'm not a big fan of those. However, they were done better in this book than in most. Overall, a good romantic read with hot sex a... morend sexy firefighters.
review 2: Breathtaking..... Ever read something and its still with you hours later and has you staring off into the distance and reliving moments of the story? Ride The Fire does exactly that. By now we know the heart breaking accident that claimed Blair, Bobby and Mia, Sean's family but what we find out is somebody from Sean's past has more to do with this then Sean could ever imagine and is out for revenge."Cap! Cap, what's wrong? Talk to me!" Someone crouched beside him and a gloved hand grabbed his arm. "That car," he whispered. "That's my wife's car. My family....."Fresh from rehab and learning to deal with each day, Sean returns to Station Five and the people that he can call his family."Hope, because as terrible as the tasks laid before him were, the miles left to travel, all these intimidating thoughts and emotions had one important thing in common, They were those of a sober man."Eve Marshall is one of these lucky people and something has been building between them for months but working together, Sean's alcohol problem and life changing situation has stopped anything between them happening. But Eve has loved Sean from the moment they met and has trouble hiding it any longer, even the rest of the crew has started to pick up on things."He had me at 'I'm Sean Tanner and I'm your captain," she said with a sad smile. "From the second I stepped foot in Station Five, he was my hero. He was the Firefighter I aspired to be, had the courage of ten men. and he owned my heart the instant I saw him standing in the bay."Sean has a hard road to travel and it was defiantly not going to be easy but with Eve at his side, he could take on anything. He had to deal with rescues that involved children and woman that reminded him of his family and it took all of his strength not to take a step back but instead move forward. Until the moment he receives the unmarked package along with the phone call that was touched upon in the previous book and also this one. Sean's world is suddenly turned upside down and somebody is out to get him. But who shocks me as much as it did Sean.Meeting George Sparks and/or Jesse Rose or should that be reading about him, gave me the chills and put me on edge. That's what I love about Jo Davis's writing, she literally can make the book come alive."Beside my name? So my enemies will remember that if they touch me, I'll make them bleed."We learn more about him and Sean and what happened in Desert Storm 1991. Jo gives us a trip down memory lane with snippets from the past, which helps put it all together. And boy George/Jesse doesn't forget anything and as long as he gets revenge he's happy to take as long as he needs. This brings Eve's mumma, Amelia Marshall, into the picture and this woman rocks. How into the picture, I'll let you find that out."Good. Because if I find out you are? I'll cut off your balls and use them as Christmas ornaments. We're clear?"Taking part in the Firefighter charity auction was awesome and it lightened the mood and gave me a chuckle. Well Firefighters semi naked, why wouldn't it. I think more then anything it was their partners and how they felt, absolutely hilarious. Especially given they were happy to outbid anybody."Yep. Us in front of a bunch of squealing ladies, wearing nothing but our fire pants and red suspenders.""Hold on. Us? There is no us in the equation," he said firmly. "Have fun living your Chippendale's fantasy.""I said we've decided to wear red G-strings for the auction instead," Clay drawled, grinning. "Across the front they'll say 'Firemen have big hoses."Reading Sean Tanners story, you get totally and utterly wrapped up in the moments, you cry with him, struggle with him, fight everyday to survive and learn to move forward with him and most of all you help him forgive himself. You will him to become the man that he should be, one that his children would be proud of and somebody that deserves the love of Eve Marshall. less
