~ SYNOPSIS ~
Lucy
We were high school prom king and queen.
He moved on. I moved east.
Seven years ago, I left Breckenridge, Colorado, hoping never to return.
All it took was one horrific night not too long ago to change everything.
Now, I’m back in Breckenridge to recover from a recent attack that nearly took my life as well as my best friend’s, and there is one person I hope I don’t run into.
His name is Jake Galloway.
My old boyfriend and my first true love.
I’ve never told anyone about him for fear of my deepest feelings resurfacing.
I’m more afraid of what will happen to me should my path cross with Jake’s again. I know memories of what we once had will hurt me more than anything I’ve recently gone through.
He’ll own my heart and my body all over again.
Jake
She took off running when I confessed I loved her but couldn’t give her the committed relationship she wanted. I needed to live my college years and party it up with lots of girls and booze.
Sex with Lucy Wyatt was an experience in and of itself. I thought I was doing right by moving on from her. I thought there was more out there than just Lucy, even if we burned for each other like a raging wildfire.
I haven’t seen her since the night she took off from my house. Little did I know life would throw me a curveball once I got to college.
I still screw women and drink all night long, but that has to do with the direction my life went seven years ago. It has nothing to do with college, simply because I never made it past my first week once classes began.
I lost Lucy. I lost out on the college experience. And, I lost my father all in the course of a few short months.
Now, Lucy’s back, and I want her more than ever. The minute my eyes trailed on her driving down the street, my desire for her burned more than ever. It’s as though seven years apart never happened. It’s just this time I’m not sure I can have her anymore.
Can old flames still burn? Lucy and Jake are about to find out.

~My Review ~
I was given a copy of Burning Barriers in exchange for my honest review for the blog tour.
Burning Barriers is a short read but yet still exciting to read. It keeps you hooked wanting more. At the last chapter you will be like oh no she didn't but at the end of the Epilogue you will be going AHHHHHH.....
"they say time heals all wounds, and right now, time with just Lucy and me is absolutely proving that statement"
So this is the story of Lucy and her high school sweetheart Jake who broke her heart. After that Lucy had endless meaningless relationships and the same goes for Jake. Now if you read Hidden Barriers you would know what happened to Lucy. After the "indecent" that's what we will call it - Lucy's parents convinced her to come back home for a few weeks to recover.
"Lucy, I love you more than my own life. Stay with me, please. Choose me this time."
Going back home Lucy new that it is inevitable that she will run in to the one person she doesn't want too. Soon old feeling return and it seems like she and Jake wasn't apart for 7 years at all.
"I guess I'm not your everything. Am I, Jake"
Jake knew that Lucy will return back home to her friends but he never expected her to actually up and leave like the way she did and take him by surprise. Jake is torn apart and doesn't truly know if he should go after her or stay where his mom needs him.
Now don't go getting your panties in a twist. Burning Barriers have a happy ending trust me.....
Burning Barriers is a good to the soul love story that will make you believe when you let your love go it will return back to you.

~ ABOUT THE AUTHOR ~
Sara Shirley
I think my love for books started when I was a teenager on summer vacations reading Mary Higgins Clark novels. As I grew older that turned into reading romance novels. Now, that's turned into me writing three romance novels and another on the way in the series.
In college I actually majored in Geography and concentrated in Travel & Tourism. I still love to travel constantly, but now find myself working in the world of Finance during the day and writing romance novels at night.
I was born and raised just north of Boston and currently live with my husband and cat. When I'm not running a mile a minute with work and books you can find me at a local wine tasting or out with friends at the pub doing shots of Patron. I have a weak spot for candy, Ghirardelli chocolate to be exact. I am addicted to the three "C"s. Coffee, Cheese and Carbs. I grew up with an Italian family and giving those up will never be an option.
I typically have a dirty mind and zero filter between my head and my mouth. If you are around me...good luck. I'm obsessed with hockey, Oregon football, beaches, Supernatural, Friends and stupid comedy movies. I've been called a "tall drink of water" due to my height and love for platform heels. Chances are you will not miss me if we are ever in the same room. Just look for the chick laughing hysterically, wearing heels and holding a glass of wine in her hand. That will be me.
