    Synopsis

    He dominated with an otherworldly seductive power . . .

    What was happening to her? Former screen siren Shara Weston lived on an exotic and private South Pacific island as a recluse . . . until disturbingly masculine and utterly captivating Cade Archer fell out of the sky and into her life. Now, Cade gives her no choice but to follow him down a sensual path that fulfills her every desire.

    Cade's on a mission to open a portal between Shara's island volcano and his world. But not everyone wants him to succeed. A powerful enemy has followed Cade to prevent him from sending the resources through the portal that will free his people.

    While Cade's mission is as compelling as his dominating sensuality, Shara must find a way to fight him . . . to stop his mission because the fate of every man, woman and child on Earth is at stake.

    Kristin Ramsdell - Library Journal

    When seductive renegade Cade Archer literally falls from another world into the ocean near reclusive ex-actress Shara Weston's volcanic island retreat, she rescues him and is swept up in a violent battle between brothers that will ultimately save—or destroy—both worlds. An alien world in need of salt, an irresistible hero on a mission to save his oppressed people, and a heroine who has to find a way to keep his quest from endangering Earth's inhabitants add up to a fast-paced, steamy adventure that will keep passions stoked and pages turning. Kearney (The Quest) lives near Tampa, FL.

    May 01, 2007: I am a fan of susan kearney and have loved everything I have read from her until now. This book was a big disappointment to me. I found it slow, boring and left lacking in the romance department. I will continue to read her books but hope this one was a fluke and she gets back to her great romance writing.

However, to his rage, though the missile destroys the ship, Cade escapes with his cargo just prior to contact.------------------ On the isolated Pacific island that she bought and retreated to five years ago, Shara Weston hears the sonic explosion that reminds her of her Hollywood days when she and late husband Bruce Langston snorted and drank every night. Shara sees a man fall into the water and saves his life. Cade Archer tells her nothing claiming top secret security. As he heals, Cade and Shara are attracted to one another. Still she has doubts as her last loving relationship proved destructive to her and her late spouse he has even greater concerns as he has a mission to send needed resources through a portal he must create on her island so that his people will be able to free themselves. The portal means threatening the life of his beloved because Jamar will be aware of its opening and arrive to kill him, his witness, destroy the door to his home planet, and perhaps the entire planet if need be.------------------ ISLAND HEAT is aAstarring two likable protagonists falling in love at a time that it is an expendable emotion. Cade knows his people?s freedom must come before his personal needs, but also fears his efforts to help his planet could destroy the orb of his beloved. Shara also believes that earth must come before her desire for this strong alien, which might mean stopping him from opening the portal. Though one must wonder why Jamar went solo at the beginning even if macho ego is implied, Susan Kearney writes a terrific thriller that grips readers from start to finish wondering whether the third planet from the sun will be Mars.------------------------ Harriet Klausner
