Winning the lottery changed Jenner
Redwine’s life forever. She learned quickly that money
doesn’t buy happiness. Seven years later, Jenner has a new
life that she’s still trying to fit into. When she and her
new friend, Heiress Sydney Hazlett, embark on a charity
cruise, Jenner isn’t expecting much more than dinners and
dancing and spending lots of money for a good cause. What
she gets is kidnapped by Cael Traylor and his team and
thrust into danger while she tries to keep herself and Syd
alive as a madman plots to make this the last cruise Jenner
and everyone else on the ship takes.
Jenner and Cael’s romance is as
tumultuous as the sea they are sailing on in Burn.
While they don’t seem very compatible at first, they
quickly become a good match. Jenner gives as good as she
gets. The best part of Burn is the witty
banter between Cael and Jenner. Their constant arguing
becomes endearing and fun. Burn is a
good story, but not riveting. The plot becomes a bit
predictable. I couldn’t help feeling cheated at the end as
well. I wanted more detail regarding Cael and Jenner’s
new-found relationship and I felt as though the back story
on several other characters was missing. While not one of
my favorite Linda Howard novels, Burn is an
easy and entertaining read. |
