Heart on Fire [Paperback]

Diana Simmonds (Author)

Editorial Reviews

Review

Jody Johnson is a rising singer who has taken the world of country music by storm. Adoring fans and groupies are so taken by Jody's cool exterior, her angular good looks, and her incredible voice that they never notice the far-away sadness in her eyes. Grace Davanzo is an artist and illustrator who lives and works at her family's truckstop. She could have her pick of the truckers and tourists enthralled by her lush beauty and work-hardened body. But dark memories of the past have reconciled her to a solitary existence. When Jody's tour bus stops at the Davanzo Truckstop for repairs, the attraction between the two women is undeniable. But can the spark that ignites their bodies in a blaze of passion burn hot enough to inflame their guarded hearts in the sweet fire of love? Diana Simmons' Heart On Fire continues to demonstrate that she is one of the new bright talents. -- Midwest Book Review

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book -- couldn't put it down., August 9, 1997

Diana Simmonds is a great storyteller. I really like books where you don't so much read the story as live it. The characters are real and have depth. 'Heart on Fire' was so good I ordered an extra copy -- because I don't know when I'll get the first copy back from friends! I also just read 'Forty Love' and I can't really say which one I liked best (I ordered an extra copy of this book too). If you like Diana Simmonds' 'Heart on Fire' and 'Forty Love', you might want to try 'Under the Southern Cross' and 'Silent Heart' by Claire McNab, and of course 'Curious Wine' by Katherine Forrest

This is definately a great book. One of the best romances I've read. Looking forward to more books by Diana Simmonds. This is my fave of hers so far. [e-mail] has great suggestions. Also try Karen Kallmaker's Painted Moon and Wild Things.

5.0 out of 5 stars Heart on Fire, January 20, 2000

This review is from: Heart on Fire (Paperback)

Great romance novel. It compares to other great lesbian romances. I loved the way it was written, you get caught up in the struggle between the two women to become lovers. The author takes you into the heart and soul of the women and the beauty of the area that surrounds them. Makes it a special place. One I would like to visit.
