This book is different than any Radclyffe novel, it's almost a time log of the days and hours of a storm and of two emergency workers who coordinate the medical care and safety of human life during the hurricane. Radclyffe shares at the start of the book how she was inspired by the news stories around the hurricanes that touched so many lives last year. The novel weaves two characters, Dara and Sawyer are each in command of their own specialities (ER & Military). They are forced to cooperate with each other and navigate political and power struggles that come along with the chaos of storms. Dara and Sawyer are well crafted characters where you feel the respect, trust and love grow.....and the dialogue in this book is very well done. As a reader you can feel the chemistry in the character's exchanges!

I’m always happy to get my hand on a Radclyffe book. This is book seven from her First Responders series. I really like this series and this was another enjoyable read. What is nice about this series, all the books are contained. You do not have to read the previous books first; you can start here if you want to.

Dr. Dara Sims is in charge of the ER of Miami’s Memorial Hospital. With Hurricane Leo heading straight for Florida, it is up to Dara to get everyone prepared. What she does not expect is a visit from a solider, or actually Colonel Sawyer Kincaid of the National Guard. Sawyer is in charge of the rescue operations for Miami and the surrounding areas. Both women are used to leading. Can they work together to keep everyone safe, and what happens if feelings become involved?

Doc’s and military, yes please! Some of my favorite women to read about in lesfic, plus with Radclyffe writing, you know she knows how to write these kinds of characters. This book was fast paced and kept me reading. It was interesting how Radclyffe tied in some real life events with this fictional story.

The two main characters were both really likeable. And the chemistry was absolutely there. I liked the sparks these two women put out and was keeping my fingers crossed for them as a couple. The only one real main complaint, the “I love you’s” happened too quickly for my tastes. I believed in this pair, but it was still too quick.

If you are looking for a book with some excitement, no forced angst, and some good chemistry, pick this book up. I enjoyed this read and can’t wait to see what Radclyffe writes next.
