Publisher's summary

Billionaire Andrew Barrington walked away from the lavish lifestyle he was raised in to serve as a Marine. Until recently, he would have said he'd made the right choice. A tragic set of events, however, has him not reenlisting and emotionally hitting rock bottom.

Helene Franklin is visiting her uncle as part of an extended vacation in Aruba. She trades her bikini for an office job when he says there is trouble brewing at his clinic and asks her to keep an eye out for anything unusual.

Every Marine needs a mission. To appease his family, Andrew heads to Aruba to track down what he believes is a wild goose chase. Expecting to discover nothing, he meets a quirky, irresistible virgin who is just about to turn his whole world upside down.

His questions will put her in danger.

Her love will set him free.

What will they gain and what will they lose when they both decide to...let it burn?

loved the story

this was a great one and I am happy how Andrew's story was handled. I am excited for the next chapter. wish in the audio book her sound was not so whispy as it made her week and like an airhead, which was not how I felt her character was.

Loved this book!! Best in series

Beautiful can not start to describe this book. All emotions packed here: love, loyalty, regret, passion, doubt...
an old mistery to be solved, a veteran with personal demons, a sweet innocent girl involved...
very catchy and steamy story
Loved this book, best in series!!

Thank you for your service to your country!

None of us that haven't experienced modern day war, could truly understand what the soldiers, deployed overseas really go through. How they depend on each other, as their very lives are at stake.
It would be hard to know that those brothers in arms, for some senseless trinket lost their lives. It would be enough to send a sane man over the edge.
Luckily, this isn't a story of suicide, but more a story of finding a purpose to life.
As usual, behind one man's salvation, stands a fierce and determined woman.
This is another example of Ms Cardello's ability to create a family we can all want to be a part off.

Terrific story with Excellent narration

New author to me, quite a pleasant discovery.

Detailed plot, great world building and characters.
Definitely going to look for more in this series as more from this author.

Entertaining, with good mix of emotion, intrigue and romance.

Another hit for Ruth Cardello!

Would you listen to Let It Burn again? Why?

Probably not. I absolutely did not like the narrator. She was inconsistent with her male voices, the females sounded like teenagers and I almost stopped listening very early in the book.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Let It Burn?

The scene where Andrew's family got very real with their feelings and their relationships over the years and the causes. It was very moving when Andrew finally felt like he was a part of his family.

What three words best describe Robin Rowan’s voice?

Not very good.

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

I cried when at the emotional scenes between Andrew and his family and also when Andrew told Helene how he felt about her after he had finally taken care of the things that had him so unable to feel like life mattered.

Any additional comments?

Despite disliking this narrator, I love Ruth's story of healing and a second chance to be a part of family and finding a love who understood Andrew. Let It Burn is one of the best in the Barrington Series!

loved it.

The story is awesome can't wait for the next book. I would be please if the narrations was different .

Let it Burn

This book was amazing! The story so powerful and beautiful. While I listened, I felt the struggle Andrew felt. I understood how important communication in families are. It was a beautiful story and well written. Thank you for sharing. It touched my heart.

Great story - the narration not so much

If you could sum up Let It Burn in three words, what would they be?

Yet another winner

What other book might you compare Let It Burn to and why?

The entire Barrington series

What didn’t you like about Robin Rowan’s performance?

The female character: Kinsey, Wella, and Helena all were portrayed with very immature sounding voices (like that of a 6 year old). It was all I could do to finish listening to the serries

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

Yes

Any additional comments?

I love Ruth's writing and either read or listen to everything she writes. I will avoid the narrator in the future and just read the book.

My favorite in the series

So far, this has been my favorite story in the series and that's why I'm rating it. I think It had more substants and liked that the female character was strong and knew her mind. The virgin thing was a little gimiky, but handled ok.

Sadly, the narrator's female voices have not improved. the voices she gives them make them sound like squeaky airheads. they are very off putting. she should just use the voice she used to state the chapter number.

Wonderful story

I was so surprised by all the twists and turns. The series continues to amaze me at how beautiful each book is.
