The Touch of Fire is the fifth Linda Howard novel that I read, and my favorite so far. (I've read All The Queen's Men, After the Night, Dream Man, and Heart of Fire.) I was completely enthralled by Heart of Fire, and didn't think this one would top it. When I opened to the first page and saw 1871, Arizona Territory, my heart sank. I am not into westerns or historicals.But I pushed on, and within a few pages, I was incapable of putting the book down.Again, LH has created strong, appealing characters, and a compelling plot, full of danger and suspense. The love that develops between Annie and Rafe is so beautiful and unconditional, that in itself, it makes The Touch of Fire one of my favorite romance novels of all times.Rafe McCay's respect, protectiveness and sensitivity toward Annie, especially in a time and place in which men were men and women their servants, makes him my favorite LH hero to date. In LH classic style, we are invited on these wonderful characters' journey through hell and sensual discovery, and cheer them on to resolution and their happily ever after.Thank you, LH, for sharing this wonderful story with us.

I really enjoyed "The Touch Of Fire" It was fun, and fast paced and full of romantic tension. READER'S WILL LOVE Rafe and Annie. A lot like "Anything, My Love" by Cynthia Simmons and "New Mexico Sunrise" by T. Peterson. All, Sexy, fun and exciting.

i've read most of linda howard's books, and i'll have to say that this was the best yet. i liked the way everything was set..and even though Rafe is determined, so is Annie. And they make it a great book all around. Rafe is tough, patient, and on the run. And all Annie ever wanted was to be a docter that was respected. when they get together love will conquer everything.
