The Heart's Flames

By Ashley Shawntel

The Fresh Voices series was inspired by a contest of the same name that identified high school writers interested in composing book-length works for young adults. Working with a professional editor, the young authors spent the summer learning about the book industry and meeting journalists while writing their individual books, both fiction and nonfiction. The four titles in this series represent the first four winners of the contest. Cole Hunter, professional smoke jumper, is changed forever when a wildfire takes the life of his best friend and leaves Cole without hearing. This, however, is just the start of his problems: medical complications lead to marital problems, and soon adultery, self-doubt, and the dissolution of love come to dominate this dramatic novel by a 17-year-old author. Ultimately it is the will of God that retrieves Cole and his wife from their fallen state, revealing the justice of His plan and demonstrating that under God, no sin is too big and no bridge too broken to restore.
