  THE DARKEST FLAME Roadmap to Your Heart - Book One by Christina Lee Release Date: August 17, 2015 Audio Release Date: May 29, 2020 Review Why are men of questionable morals so sexy. And trust me, the sexual tension between Vaughn and Smoke is delicious.  There is plenty of action - a la Motorcycle Gang - but the soul-deep need these two had for each other made it hella romantic. Seriously the forbidden romance vibes were off the charts!! They are both really interesting men, with complex pasts, some of Smoke’s comes back to cause some trouble. And I really liked Vaughn’s father. I highly recommend the audiobook Tristan James and Iggy Toma as narrators make it all the more delicious.

  CHASE THE SUN Free Fall - Book Two by Christina Lee & Nyrae Dawn Release Date: September 7, 2016 Audio Release Date: March 7, 2017 Review A really sweet and well-written story by Christina & Nyrae. It’s a wonderful blend of both of them and gives us small-town vibes as Jamie takes an adventure to Los Angeles and connects with Conner. It’s low angst and it was a lot of fun to witness Jamie exploring and finding himself along the way. And Conner too. He knew he wanted something different when he left their small town, but it’s not till Jamie shows up that he really pieces together what that might be. Overall, so cute and warm.
