” ‘Every man I know’ wasn’t rubbing it on you! It was just me!” “Maybe so, but they do not-repeat, do not-rub it on me.” Every man I know wakes up with a hard-on.” “It’s not something I can control, damn it. Here are some snippets from the book that showcase why we love the book as much as we do. I loved the way that Jillian didn’t let Ben get away with anything and Ben tried to get away with everything. Their chemistry is off the charts and they’re a riot together. Rowena: Holly mentions Ben’s snark and Jillian’s wit and she’s completely right. Neither of them could foresee what the days ahead promised: an odyssey into the fiery heart of passion and betrayal, and a danger that would force them to cast their fates together, immersed in the eternal, unsolved mysteries of love…. Jillian watched him come to a fast boil when she refused to reveal their exact destination upriver in the uncharted rain forests - and resolved to stand her ground. Ruffian, knock-about, and number one river guide in Brazil, Ben was all man - over six feet of rock-hard muscles that rippled under his khakis, with lazy blue eyes that taunted her from his tanned face. You won’t be sorry.Ī fabulous lost Amazon city once inhabited by women warriors and containing a rare red diamond: it sounded like myth, but archeologist Jillian Sherwood believed it was real, and she was willing to put up with anything to find it - even Ben Lewis. If you haven’t already, you need to read this book. He almost crosses the line a couple times, but he never did because Jillian either put him in his place or was so unimpressed he was knocked down a peg or two. I honestly don’t know how much I would have loved him if it weren’t for Jillian. Ben’s snark and Jillian’s wit made for some of the best banter I’ve ever read. On the edge of my seat waiting to see what would happen as Jillian and Ben trekked through the Amazon, with her fighting her attraction and him determined to win her over. Holly: I remember the first time I read this book.
This book is all that and a bag of chips guys and we’re going to spend the entire time writing this post, showing you why. Heart of Fire by Linda Howard is a book that I did not have any interest in reading until Holly forced me to read it. So if it’s any indication, we love the hell out of this book and out of the hero. We fought over him so much that he was deemed off limits and Heart of Fire was both of ours. When I say fight, I mean we fought over the hero, Ben Lewis. A book that Holly and I have spent plenty of hours in our early twenties fighting over. Rowena: This week’s Sunday Spotlight is on a book that is near and dear to our hearts.
We’ll be raving about the books we love and being total fangirls. This year we’re spotlighting our favorite books, old and new. Sunday Spotlight is a feature we began in 2016.
