 | Fire Dancer by Colleen Coble
Buy used from: $1.93 An exciting suspense/murder story that adds the danger of fighting fires. It's a draw as to the fires or the murders being the most suspenseful. As in all of Colleen Coble's books, there's a touch or more of romance along the way. She is a Christian fiction writer. The romance is clean but the fires are HOT.

 | The Wild Donahues by Elisabeth Hamilton Friermood
Buy used from: $9.20 A older book needing purchased used but well worth a look. It is historical fiction about the Underground Railroad activity that went through Indiana in 1858. Excellent pioneer history and exciting reading. Don't ignore this because of its age. One for Civil War fans, too.
