Rating:  Summary: Magical & Emotional Historical Romance Review: I hesitated reading this book, not because I have anything against
Justine Dare/Davis (she is one of my favorite authors) but because FIRE
HAWK is the third in Dare's Hawk trilogy, and I have a thing about reading
books in order and I don't yet have my hands on the 2nd book HEART OF THE
HAWK yet. When I heard Dare was taking a different approach to the trilogy
- writing them backwards - I decided to take a chance and read her latest
FIRE HAWK first. And I'm real glad I did because, IMO, I think this book
should be read first (not to mention it's a WONDERFUL read!). To my
understanding all of these books are related by a mysterious tome that
appears in each story when there is only one member of the Hawk line
remaining. This book, FIRE HAWK, explains the origin of the mysterious
tome that guides the Hawk family and introduces the characters who began
the Hawk line back in the tragic and brutal medieval time period.
Jenna and her clan have managed to live in peace for years in
their magical glade while the world around them is torn by war and death.
But all of that comes to an end when an evil Warlord sets his sights on
their glade and slowly begins killing them off as they wander from their
safe haven ignorant of what awaits them. After her Brother is murdered
Jenna is named Hawk - leader of the clan - an honor she never wanted. With
this heavy responsibility on her shoulders, fear and anguish in her heart,
she realizes the only way to save the few remaining members of her clan is
by seeking out the mystical warrior known only as Kane, a man she fears may
not even exist except in legends. She hopes he will teach her people,
who've never learned how to fight, how to defend themselves and possibly
save their magical land from invasion.
Kane has escaped his brutal and haunted past and found solitude on his
isolated mountain. He is less than thrilled when Jenna shows up and asks
him to don his warrior garb and help her out. He repeatedly refuses but
her persistent arguments and his increasing attraction to her force him to
take drastic measures to get her the heck away from him ASAP. He's bad for
her and he knows it so he offers her a bargain that is sure to have her
running in terror. But he screws up big time because he misjudges her
courage and love for her people and she accepts his very ungentlemanly
deal. Now he feels guilty and is in one heck of a mess but he can't take
back his offer so he begins her lessons and puts his his heart in danger.
Kane and Jenna's love story is not an easy one. They have a lot of pain
and obstacles to face before they can find love but with the help of Kane's
gorgeous wizard friend, Tal, they get a little magical push to help them
along. Both are strong, couragous and likable characters. And although
the book is filled with adventure the story never loses focus of the love
story. The sensual tone and the heartwrenching emotions it tugged out of
me kept me anxiously turning the pages and dropping everything to get back
to the book. If I have anything to complain about it would be that Tal's
interesting past is never fully explained. I'm going to be really bummed
if Dare doesn't write his story!!! Anyway, I very highly recommend it,
especially to those who like wounded/tortured heroes and couragous
heroines
