Book Description

Publication Date: July 1, 2004

Terri Schuman risks her life to save others on a daily basis. As a Chicago paramedic, she works round–the–clock shifts that are often filled with life–and–death moments. Yet she doesn’t see herself as a heroine...just a woman dedicated to a job she loves. And after Lieutenant Gabe Andrews, a firefighter from another unit, manages to catch her attention, her dedication to him becomes just as intense.

But when a flash point of circumstances suddenly changes her life, Terri must come face–to–face with the fragile self–confidence she displays to the world. Suddenly unsure about Gabe and his feelings for her, will Terri turn to the One who sees behind the mask she wears and trust Him to heal her heart?

5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing Story Writer!, October 30, 2010

I can't believe this book has only one other review (as of 10/30/10). That suggests to me that it hasn't been widely read. What a shock! This was an amazingly realistic story. The author is a very talented writer with the ability to draw you right into the story and make you feel like you're part of the scene. It wasn't corny or overly preachy. It all felt like 'real life.' I just loved the hero. The only negative thing I would say is that at one point I wanted to shake the heroine and tell her she was nuts to run from the hero! But it was only a little frustrating and she quickly got over her behavior. At least it felt like it was quick. Perhaps it's because I couldn't put the book down and read it very quickly. After reading this book I have discovered that it is the 2nd book in a series. I look forward to reading the rest of the series and if this book is any indication of Sally John's writing ability then I will be reading all of her books.

I loved the book Flash Point. It is in a series which I always enjoy reading but this can also be read as a stand-alone book. Sally John has a way of writing that captivates her readers and I truly enjoy reading all of her books. My son-in-law is a fire fighter so this book even meant more to me personally. This is a book that is easy to read and very hard to put down. I enjoyed this book very much and can't wait until she write another. I am always waiting to see what she will write next. I highly recommend any books written by Sally John.
