Sarah Cline is looking for a summer job.  She just graduated from law school and is planning on spending the summer working and studying to pass the Bar exam.  She is an independent hard working woman who is determined to leave her small town behind to become a lawyer in the big city.Jack McIvers has moved back to his childhood home, the Tidewater Ranch.  The Tidewater Ranch is in a state of disrepair.  Jack is looking for a housekeeper to help bring the Tidewater back up to par.  Jack has some heavy emotional baggage that bubbles to the surface the longer he is at Tidewater.  He is terrified of giving himself to a woman, afraid of being left behind.Sometimes life throws you a curve ball.  When Sarah accepted the job at Tidewater Ranch she had no idea that her summer of work and studying would make her doubt her life plan.  Jack can't keep his eyes off Sarah but he is not looking for a relationship.  Will Sarah or Jack change their lives for each other?Summer Heat was a wonderful love story!  Sarah is strong when it comes to work, but shy and unsure of herself when dealing with relationships.  Jack is just plain afraid of relationships that last longer than a weekend.  Sarah and Jack both realize they are attracted to each other and it is fun to watch them tip toe around each other trying to deny what they feel.  It is great to see them push each others' boundaries.  Stephanie St. James has done an amazing job of creating loveable characters and tells their story beautifully.  Summer Heat is a great romance that's good in every season!MirandaFor Joyfully Reviewed
