From Air by Jewel E. Ann is a contemporary romance featuring a travel nurse and a smoke jumper, a firefighter who parachutes into remote wildland fires. It is the first book in her new Wildfire series.
I’m not sure what it is about Jewel E. Ann’s writing style, but you don’t simply read her words—she makes you feel her words. I adore her writing. It makes me laugh, it makes me cry, I feel butterflies in the swoony moments, and I just can’t put it down until the very last page. This is the second book of hers that I’ve read and they have both been five star reads for me.
I love the witty banter throughout this book. I really felt the connection between Jamie and Calvin. And the dynamic between the roommates is great. I was not expecting to have this book rip my heart out and shred it into pieces before putting it back together again in the end, but it did just that. I cannot wait to read more of this new series and I plan to read some of her backlist while I wait.
