Beth Brown doesn’t believe in premonitions. But her recent dream feels too real to ignore: a commercial airliner is hijacked, and a handsome passenger is shot dead. Beth hasn’t met the mystery man in her dream; she would never forget a gorgeous face like his. But she can’t deny the bizarre connection she feels. Now awake, and unable to allow for the violence she’s convinced is impending, she races to the airport…and comes face to face with the man of her dreams.

Zane Winters lives for his job, using his uncanny psychic powers to carry out missions for elite SEAL Team 7. Yet the constant adrenaline highs can’t drown out the numbness seeping into his life as he yearns to find a woman he can trust. All that changes when he meets a beautiful stranger who sets his soul on fire—and somehow knows he’s about to die.

To thwart the global crisis the hijacking will unleash, Beth and Zane join forces. But even amid the danger, they can’t deny the powerful force drawing them together. Is it merely attraction…or destiny?

My Review:

The premise of Forged in Fire was original and fresh.  I enjoyed the mix of action adventure, psychic intuition and a steamy romance which all served to push the story forward to its conclusion.  McCallan developed  believable characters that I felt I knew throughout the story....even the bad guys!   The sex scenes were pretty explicit, but did not overwhelm the main story.  If action adventure is your thing, suspense and mystery, and romance your draw, then read this book!   It was intriguing and thoughtful and I for one enjoyed it tremendously...I give it a 5 out of 5 winks!
