Fire in the Blood

In my opinion this was the best book that Shirl Henke ever wrote! Lissa & Jess were explosive together. Their love scenes have you frantically turning the page wanting more! But what excited me the most was Lissa's determination to have Jess at all cost... even being labeled "a fallen woman" because of her love for him. Trials after trials mostly because of Jess stubborness eluded this couple. But love conquered all in the end. It's a buy and keeper!

This book starts out with Melissa Jacobson (Lissa) a cattle baron's daughter having an attraction to Jesse Robbins (Jess) a half breed part greaser gunman that her father has hired to take care of rustlers. Soon Lissa catches Jess's attention and their relationship begins. They're many people and obstacles the couple has to overcome to be together. The racism and bigotry of Lissa's family and "friends" causes problems from the beginning. But there are a few true friends that help along the way after they are won over by the love the couple shares. The love scenes alone are worth the read! Shirl Henke has written a real winner.
