When I see Irene Hannon's name on a book, I always know without a doubt that I am in for a read that is going to keep me at the edge of my seat. She has such a great way of creating intriguing stories and layered characters that I absolutely can never get enough of. Into the Fire was no exception. 

There was so much going on in this story and just when I thought I was starting to figure things out, there'd be another twist or turn to keep me guessing and wondering how everything fit together. We are given a glimpse from the villain's POV, which just further allowed us to see how complex and well-written the characters all were--- not to mention adding an extra level of creepiness to the story too. Even on the bits that I was able to guess as the story went along, I found myself drawn in and invested to see the why of it all. Of course, in addition to the suspense, the romance was fantastic too. I really enjoyed Bri and Marc's chemistry and thought it was balanced really nicely with the suspense too. 

If you're looking for a great Christian romantic suspense read, this is absolutely one worth checking out.
