Wild Heat (Northern Fire #1) by Lucy Monroe



Blurb:

Sometimes old flames are the hottest of all . . . 

In the quaint little town of Cailkirn, Alaska, it's impossible to keep a secret, especially one as juicy as the unexpected return of Kitty Grant. Tack MacKinnon remembers her wild red curls and even wilder spirit—and still feels the sting from when she shattered his heart in college. But there's a pain in Kitty's gorgeous eyes that guts him to the core, and Tack is determined to do whatever it takes to see the woman he still loves smile again—even if it means taking on her demons as his own. 

After fleeing an abusive ex-husband, Kitty decides that the best way to heal her broken heart is to come back home. But she gets a whole new shock when she sees how undeniably sexy Tack has become. More handsome, more muscular, more charming—more everything—he's impossible to resist. Before she knows it, they're reigniting sparks that could set the whole state of Alaska on fire. Yet trust doesn't come easy to Kitty anymore, and as things heat up between her and Tack, she can't help but wonder if one of them is going to get burned . . .

My review:
Wild Heat will make you think.  This book is not only a second chance romance it deals with some very deep issues as well.  Kitty and Tack were best friends but he was a hometown boy and she wanted nothing more than to get away even if that means leaving the boy she loved.  Biggest mistake ever.  Now after eight years apart Kitty has come home.  She has been beaten and battered but she is on the mend. Now if Tank could only figure out what he wants…
This is a well written, fast moving, often heart wrenching love story that takes place in the great state of Alaska.  This is the first in the series and I look forward to the next. 
My only real problem with this book is the cover.  Tank has a beard throughout the book.
