Forged by Fire: A Small Town Second Chance Romance by Eddie Cleveland

  Fabulous Start To A New Series – A Must Have Read

Oh Mr Cleveland – what a fabulous start to your brand new series about firefighters in a small town!  Eddie Cleveland introduces us to Karen and Luke who are high school sweethearts. She has a family that she badly needs to get away from and when she gets a place at a great university the plan is for him to follow her. However, tragedy strikes as his Dad, a firefighter, dies whilst working and Luke must stay to help his mum.  But he knows that if he doesn’t go that she will throw away this unbelievable opportunity and stay with him – which he just can’t let her do. She is such a wonderful young woman and he loves her too much so he makes her believe that he doesn’t love her and so she leaves.  Four years later Luke has just been appointed as deputy fire chief and she’s back. She hates him! Luke still loves her! How can he possibly prove to her that he is worth a second chance? These two characters are so well written that it is so easy to like them and I certainly wanted them to get their second chance together.  There is humour peppered throughout the book which makes it even more enjoyable and also realistic.  As I said tat the beginning , this is a fantastic start to the series and I wonder who will get their HEA in book 2.  Looking forward to reading it with anticipation.  I received a reader’s copy of this book and voluntarily leave my honest opinion of it here.  Most Definitely Recommended!!
