Angel on Fire is Jacquie Johnson's first novel as far as I know, and I loved it. The heroine is smart and independent but yet she's not so stubborn that she doesn't recognize when she makes a mistake or when she needs help. Chase is an ex-SEAL working undercover for the government, who is asked to keep a watch on Angela as she finds herself in the middle of murder and threats to national security through no fault of her own. Angela has lost her father, and doesn't know who to trust, especially since she suspects he didn't die of a heart attack as she was told. Their attraction builds as they lean on each other, and Chase realizes helping her goes beyond the job. Angel on Fire is a fast paced romantic suspense. I loved not only the main characters, but their friends and family as well, which always adds to the story when we can view interaction between main characters and the people they care about. I hope Ms. Johnson gives us another story in the world she's created.
