When the Smoke Clears

Lynette Eason
After a brush with death due to equipment failure, smokejumper Alexia Allen is ordered to take time off while the incident is under investigation. She makes a last-minute decision to recuperate at her mother’s home and attend her high school reunion. Yet trouble seems to be following her, and within hours of arriving home she is confronted with murder, arson–and a handsome detective.
But the conflicts ahead are nothing compared to the ghosts of her past. As she struggles to accept and forgive her family’s past, she must also decide if the secret she’s been guarding for the last ten years must finally come to light.
Chock-full of the suspense and romantic tension you’ve come to expect from Lynette Eason, When the Smoke Clears is the explosive first book in the Deadly Reunions series.

Give yourself plenty of time when you start reading this one. No matter how often you tell yourself that you’re going to put the book down and get something done, you won’t.
It was early afternoon when I decided to read a couple chapters. Now it’s dark outside and nearly time to sleep – if I can unwind from the adrenalin rush. This is a book that grips you and won’t let go.
Before you finish the book, you’ll think everyone is the suspect. When you do get to the end, you’ll know some things, but there’s still more to learn. I want to start reading the second book in this series now. Or tomorrow at the latest. How much longer do we really have to wait, Ms Eason?
