Dante's Fire

By: Jennifer Probst

Narrated by: Anne Johnstonbrown

From New York Times best-selling author Jennifer Probst.

It's time to meet a new kind of hero....

Dante Stark has a dark secret - a legacy left to him by his father, which is both a blessing and a curse. A traumatic experience as a small boy gave him special powers of healing, but it comes with a price. Destined to wander the world alone to heal others, he's accepted his fate. Until Selina Rogers forces him to confront his deepest fears, erotic desires, and question his capacity to love.

Selina Rogers has made a name for herself at Inferno Enterprises. She's tough, confident, and prepared to succeed. She's also built a world she believes is safe, until she's attacked and then saved by a masked stranger. As he helps her heal physically and emotionally, she becomes fascinated by his overwhelming power and gentle touch. Determined to show Dante the love he's been denying himself, Selina surrenders her heart, and dreams of a future with the mysterious man who completes her.

But will his dark legacy destroy them...or save them both....

Evil Beware

Dante Stark is a new type of superhero. When his mother was murdered, he came into his power. Now he has the ability to help women who are victims of sexual attacks heal and regain control of their life. His mark on the attackers stop them from harming others. During the day he works incognito in the mail room of the company he owns. There Dante meets Selina Rogers and is attracted to her, but he knows their will be no HEA for him. That is until he protects her from a violent attack and becomes her savior. He wants so much more. Does he dare take a chance? Dante and Selina are strong and compelling characters. Dante is a caring and tender man who wants to stop evil and protect the vulnerable. Selina will not be a victim. She's resilient and with Dante's help will recover. When she was assaulted, I got cold chills. The scene was so vivid and powerful that it took my breath away. Jennifer Probst's writing continues to grow as she tries a new genre. Dante's Fire is an amazing book. The narration by Anne Johnstonbrown adds to the power and emotional impact of the story. The audio was the icing on the proverbial cake.

Great Start..I need more Dante!

This story was very different than other Jennifer Probst books. I really enjoyed the story because it was unique. At the end I felt like I wanted more and was very happy to hear that it is part of a series. It was in my opinion a great start to a bigger story! I think Dante is a true hero..completely selfless and Selina gets to be his hero through her selflessness and understanding. They are each others perfect other half...and together they are whole.

Loved the story!

Would you listen to Dante's Fire again? Why?

I would listen to Dante's Fire again! What a great story! It's unlike anything I have every read before. It's a wonderful CONTEMPORARY paranormal (super hero!) love story.

What other book might you compare Dante's Fire to and why?

I wouldn't compare this to any other book. This is a paranormal romance, unlike anything I have read before.

Which character – as performed by Anne Johnstonbrown – was your favorite?

Selina was my favorite character preformed by the reader.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

YES!!! The book runs about 3 1/2 hours, and I wanted to listen to it all at once! I may have had an earbud in a time or two while my husband was watching TV.

Mailman by Day - Hero by Night

Would you consider the audio edition of Dante's Fire to be better than the print version?

Haven't read print but will do so this weekend

What was one of the most memorable moments of Dante's Fire?

The moment Salina had just the tiniest idea that she recognized Daniel in Dante.

Which character – as performed by Anne Johnstonbrown – was your favorite?

Aside from Salina...I'm really hoping to hear more from her as Sage.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

Mailman by day, hero by night...

Any additional comments?

Daniel lives a lonely life hiding out as the mailman for the business he secretly owns. He's wealthy and hot; a body to die for and eyes that pull you in. He's met plenty of women in his life, but none hold a candle to Salina.

Though he gets to avenge his mothers death and be a hero in the night by punishing dangerous men who harm women, a gift like Dantes can also be a curse. Helping women heal emotionally by offering pleasure and comfort is what Dante does best, but relationships are off limits because someone always gets hurt and he can't stick around... Or can he?

Salina is a smart, savy and beautiful business woman determined to make her way to the top of her firm. Walking home one night she is brutally attacked and nearly raped until Dante arrives and comes to her rescue. Though he only comes to her in the night she finds herself turning to Daniel in the day. There's a comfort and something familiar about each of them that she can't quiet place.

Can Dante keep his identity a secret or will Salina figure it out? Can't superheroes fall in love too?!

**jennifer probst you have done it again!! I love this book as I do the rest of your work and I cannot wait for more of this journey! ! Congrats on a job well done again!

A hot romantic story with a twist

Would you listen to Dante's Fire again? Why?

Probably. I enjoyed the story and I was able to relax listening to it. The narrator was good and she kept the story interesting at all times

What other book might you compare Dante's Fire to and why?

Actually, I don't think I've read or listened to anything similar and that's one of the reasons I enjoyed it so much.

What does Anne Johnstonbrown bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

I liked how she changes her voice for the different characters and how she manages to express their feelings through her intonation.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Not really, but I still enjoyed the story immensly

Any additional comments?

This is a really intriguing story. It is not the normal romantic suspense story and I would really enjoy listening or reading more books in the series :)
