5 out of 5 stars
OH, THE WEATHER OUTSIDE IS FRIGHTFUL, finishes the Montana
Fire series with, a snow storm, a baby, a wedding, and another relationship
that must find its footing if it’s going to survive.
C.J. St. John is fighting back to recover from the injuries
sustained in the plane accident that almost took his life. If not for Hannah
Butcher, he’s convinced he wouldn’t have survived the crash. Not only did he
survive, but C.J. knows in his heart of hearts, he fell in love with Hannah that
night. But somehow, he can’t bring himself to admit his feelings to Hannah.
Especially since his career is over.
Hannah Butcher was there for C.J when he needed her, keeping
him from going into shock and surviving a harrowing plane crash. But, Hannah
wouldn’t have made it through her rookie summer with the smoke jumpers if it
wasn’t for C.J.’s encouragement. The night they spent on the mountain, Hannah
saved their lives, but lost her heart—to C.J. When they get back to
civilization, C.J. and Hannah fumble over their feelings for each other,
allowing distance to grow between them.
Six months later, Hannah pursues C.J., forcing him to keep his
end of their bargain—to dance with her at their team member’s wedding. Unfortunately,
a blizzard and a car accident derail them from their plans and forces them once
again to turn to each other and God if they are going to survive.
Though this installment had a lot of back story, for those
who might not have read the other books, I still thoroughly enjoyed it. BURIN’
FOR YOU was from the point of view of Gilly and Reuben. This novella allowed readers
to experience the same plane crash from C.J. and Hannah’s POV, and then the
fallout that followed. The characters in this series were so good, because they
weren’t perfect. With every strength that defined them, there was an underlying
weakness they were struggling with. Throughout the series, each character grew
in the relationship with God and each other. A series that is now on my
favorites list.
