A standalone novel in the Jupiter Point series...

To his wildfire hotshot crew, he's Rollo. Firefighter, loyal friend, lifesaver. To his family, he's Rollington Wareham III, black sheep and heir to a banking fortune. But now that he's turned thirty, Rollo knows his days of firefighting and freedom are over. He has responsibilities. Duties. Goodbye hotshots, hello boardroom—and a socially acceptable bride. This is absolutely the worst time to realize just how sexy and adorable his good friend Brianna is.

Put her in a garden with some plants, and Brianna Gallagher knows just what to do. Send her on a date with an attractive man and things get awkward. Epically awkward. It's a good thing she and Rollo are such great friends. It would be a total disaster if she started noticing his ripped physique and sculpted muscles. Kissing him is a definite no-no. As for falling into bed ... well, that might be okay as long as they both know it's a limited time deal. She doesn't belong in his world, and he can't stay in hers. No matter how much she's falling for him.

But fate has a way of changing people's plans. When a family crisis follows Rollo to Jupiter Point, he turns to the one woman he trusts above all others. Throw in a disastrous visit to Manhattan, a bride hunt, and the world's most awkward crush, and it will take a miracle to bring them together. Or a shocking event that puts Brianna's life at risk ...

What a great story, and it's still free in ebook on amazon!

If you crave meeting a pair of intelligent, moral characters and a good, just-complex-enough plot, go nab this free ebook. I kept waiting for something to annoy me, but they're just that good.

I'm surprised, because usually in m/f romances the woman isn't enough of her own hero. But not Brianna! Bri's awesome. And so is Rollo, despite his family - he is the great kind of hunky manly-man. This is book 3 in a series, but all that means is you get to catch up if you love this book as much as I did. I just added the series to my wishlist. ( )

Into the Flames is the 3rd book in the Jupiter Point series by Jennifer Bernard. We are finally getting a closer look at Rollo, the gentle giant, the hotshot that had appearances in Set The Night on Fire and Burn So Bright! Rollo and Brianne, the local green thumb, have become close friends since the Hotshots set up shop in Jupiter Point and they decide to help each other catch the eye of their crushes. Little did they know by doing that, they would catch each others eye. The strong friendship between these two and how they would do anything to help each other out is shown throughout the book, which made me love them together even more. The flaming hot love scenes was an added bonus to this story. ( )

After having read all of Jennifer Bernard’s books, with this being my third Jupiter Point read, I have to say that Into the Flames is my favorite of all. There’s something about both Rollo and Brianna that will just grab you right from page one….although the cover isn’t too shabby, either. Reading about Rollo (or Rollington Wareham III as he was named at birth) and his family obligations, which for the most part he’s kept from his friends in the hotshot crew, will tug at your heart. Yes, he’s a poor not-so-little rich guy hiding in plain sight however he is truly an amazing guy, heart of gold, great friend and just a good person. Brianna Gallagher is JUST as amazing and even with her personal hang ups and all in her head issues? She is still strong and I would love to have her as a friend. This story had me laughing and sniffling and yelling, sometimes all at the same time. I truly enjoyed it and was engaged from start to finish. I won’t tell you much about the story but Rollo’s family? Hooboy. Brianna’s family? So loving and fun. Their friends? Crazy loons, all! Really, grab this read; you won’t be sorry. It is a standalone however it has characters from previous books and having read those books made it all the more enjoyable for me. Rollo’s and Bri’s HEA is the best. In case you haven’t guessed, I highly recommend. ( )

In the third instalment of Jennifer Bernard’s fabulous Jupiter Point series, we get to get better acquainted with Rollo Wareham. Although we had met him briefly in the previous books, I didn’t know what to expect of his story, and Ms. Bernard made it a terrific one. Brianna Gallagher and Rollo have been very good friends for a while, and although Rollo comes to think there could have been more, his family situation makes it just about impossible: Brianna would not fit in, and truth be told, he would do that to a friend; his family is impossible and too snobbish for Brianna.

Rollo has a riveting backstory, and sweet, darling Brianna is a hopeless klutz, has no fashion sense, puts her foot in her mouth, babbles ceaselessly, and also has a heart that is as big as the heavens. Rollo and Brianna are friends, they really enjoy each other’s company, but they don’t perceive them as romantic feelings, until they realise that they do, which comes about rather by accident. They both have crushes on other people, which nobody knows about, and friends are always matching them together. After one of those failed blind dates where they’ve been set up, they agree to help each other win over their respective crushes. That’s when Rollo begins to think that maybe Brianna is more than his friend. Alas, there is no place for Brianna in his upper crust family.

Rollo and Brianna are both lovely people, and INTO THE FLAME is a wonderful romance, but at times, my heart broke for Brianna, because of Rollo’s attitude towards his parents. Now, I’ll be even more hard-pressed when the time comes to choose a favourite book in this fabulous series, because INTO THE FLAMES is such a great story with very complex characters. It is very well written, with no boring bits, and there is so much fun to be had. Jennifer Bernard has given us another fabulous book, and now waiting for the next one!

I voluntarily reviewed an advanced reader copy of this book. ( )

OMG! Rollo is hot!! 30 years old & his life is about to completely change. Rollo has been a member of the Hot Shots firefighting team. He promised his mother that once he turned 30 he would take his rightful place in the family business & would marry a woman she chose. Brianna is his best friend. Brianna has a crush of a friend of Rollo's & he agrees to try to help her catch his friends eye. Rollo suddenly realizes his feelings for Brianna have changed.

I really enjoyed this story & think it's my new favorite. Rollo & Brianna are the perfect couple & everyone knows it except them. They both have to learn to trust their feelings & lean on each other. Brianna needs to gain self confidence & see herself the way others see her instead of the klutz she thinks she is. Rollo's sister adds to the story & the interaction between them is tender & endearing. This is a wonderful uplifting story & reminds us to keep reaching for our dreams. There is always more than one way to reach them. ( )
