Feelings they thought long dead rise from the ashes, suddenly making them more than just allies in a life-or-death struggle against nature’s fury. A still greater challenge awaits when fate delivers them from harm and puts their rekindled love to its ultimate test: Surrender to each other, or part forever.
In Joan Johnston latest title in book #11 of her Bitter Creek series, but #3 of King’s Brat we find ourselves fighting a w whirlwind fire in “Surrender” sold by Random House and branded under Dell (February 27, 2018). It has been a while since I visited Grawhawks and the Flynn. That it was a pleasure when I got the opportunity from Random House and Netgalley to get the ARC for this title.
This novel like Joan Johnston other titles in the duel series started off with a bang and maintained that tone throughout the telling of this story.
The tale begins, with Taylor Grayhawk making a daring attempt at landing a plan when both engines were snuffed out by a tornado of flames. Fortunately for Taylor, Brian Flynn a smoke jumper was still on board. With the assistance of Brian’s parachute, they both escaped the crash.
Now stranded in the middle of the raging flames, they will have to put their personal difference asides to escape the flames that are looking for its first victims.
Surrender was fast-paced and loved pulling at the heartstrings. With enjoyable characters and a solid plot, old readers and new readers to this series will find it hard to put this one down.
