✨Thank you NetGalley for this ARC

I love Jewel E. Ann novels. Love them all. But Calvin Fitzgerald, he wins all the book boyfriend awards. I loved him and Jaymes. I loved the twist, while a bit crazy, I felt their responses were realistic. I can’t wait for more fire romances in this series!

FANTASTIC!!!!!!! I absolutely adored all of the characters and I'm hoping for future books with Maren, Will and Melissa as main characters.

The banter was outstanding. I love a closed off, semi-grumpy guy and Fitz fit the bill to a "T". He's an amazing man with so much love buried deep inside of him. Jaymes is now one of my favorite Jewel-penned female characters. She's sunny and sweet and intelligent and so darned funny. I'd love to know her in person.

It has some intrigue and a great storyline. Not to be missed!

Now what an introduction to Jewel’s books. This book gives you all the feels and let’s be honest this one felt so special. Jamie is a traveling nurse and just landed in Montana to live for the next 6 months. She will be living with three roommates that are all part of fighting fires in some way. Will is the town firefighter, Maren is a pilot and Fitz is a smoke jumper. What she learns quickly is Will is the playboy, Maren will become an amazing friend and Fitz is the grump that is all business. But as these two spend time together, they find that they have a connection that is both special and intense. I love the carefree nature of Jamie. She truly lives life to the fullest and enjoys traveling around and healing others. Fitz is a tough guy and letting people in is not his strong suit. As we learn more and more about him, we see how he works to keep people at arm’s length until Jamie manages to break down his walls. This book gives you all the emotions as you will love, cry and want to yell a few times, but throughout the whole book you will cheer for these two to find their happiness.

I have been a Jewel E Ann fan since reading Undeniably You. The characters Fritz and Jaymes develop very quickly and you become invested in the outcome. JEA normally has me in tears from her stories but this one was a pleasant surprise and not quite as angsty.
I highly recommend reading this book and any others that she written and you haven’t read.
Very quick read!

Emotional, unforgettable, yet another extraordinary great read from Uber talented Jewel is here to warm your hearts. If I could gather all the stars in the universe, I'd give every one of them to this book. Brilliantly written, evocative, funny, smart...this story deals with trauma in a lighter vein but the effect is not watered down at all. Jewel starts this banter filled, grumpy sunshine, forced housemates romance when Jaymes Lanette Andrews lands in Missoula, Montana as a travelling nurse. She ends up with perfectly-imperfect housemates.

"Well, two new friends and Calvin Fitzgerald. "

Obviously the sparks ignite immediately cause Calvin and Jaymes are both the same in demeanour. Caustic, cheeky and click baits. Ruthlessly humorous and bawdy at time, Jaymes goes out of her way to poke the bear, that is Calvin-the fire jumper. He's no stranger to dares so he not only plays along, he one-ups the challenge and almost beats Jaymes in her own games. His rugged sexiness knocks Jaymes's panties off many a times. But he sint immune to her swaying-sashaying sexiness e7ther. Some dormant fires can flare up, if the wind is right. That's exactly what happens to this chili-cooking fireman.

“You’re generous. Distractingly mesmerizing. Quirky in a brilliant way. And ineffably beautiful.”

Since I've read it super early, I won't give away too much, but suffice to say, Jewel won't be a superstar bestelling author if she didn't twist your heart.... A lot!!
So she plays Devil's advocate in putting in some WTF twists to jaymes and Calvin's almost perfect HEA, that has them split apart so hard and fast, I'm legit left standing in the empty pages thinking - WTF just happened? Where did everybody go?.

"She was the ultimate distraction. Now she’s the ultimate reminder. My light became my darkness."

All the pieces of shattered hearts are blown away like trampweed in karmic wind. I'm stunned, mouth agape, "All my Flabbers Gasted!!"
I cried so much at the cruel hands of fate that dealt these cards to this perfect couple. I shook my head in "I can't believe I read this" at almost every page in the second half.

What happened to you Jewel? Who hurt you? Why you so be so rude to my favourite people?

Fitz is broken. End of. And Jaymes's dogged persistence and patient understanding breaks down his walls, brick by brick, till you see light filling every corner of his darkened soul. I'm like Eureka!!


"Can he be like the old table someone sets at the end of their driveway? Free to a good home. Can I fix him and keep him?"

master level achieved, dungeon blown apart, the princess has rescued the prince trapped in PTSD monster....... But remember how i said WTF moments that pop up on inopportune moments?
Well, this was the master moment where story just dives down into dark depths of misery.

“Let him go. He’s not really mine.”

My tears wouldn't stop. This is one such story that jams its claws deep into your soul, and never lets go. A touching story of Fragile love that withstands all fires and storms, but falls prey to complex darkness from the past. It will eviscerate you, annihilate you completely, shatter you in a million pieces but trust jewel to glue all the pieces in the end, to make you smile...HUGE!
The problem with jea book is that its too good. Too full of yummy words. You want to retain them all, so read slowly and savour every morsel, cry every tear, hear the pounding heart.

ALL THE STARS because "This love is Worth the pain"

I had never heard of this author before but when I saw this book I instantly wanted to read it. Wow, I think I may have just found one of my new favorite romance authors!!

This was so achingly sweet with sizzling chemistry between the two main characters from the instant they meet. The banter between the two MC's is amazing and had me giggling out loud. I love a book that combines humor with romance, and I love a snark and wit and this book delivers. Also, Calvin can talk dirty to me any day! The yearning and the heartache and the issues that Calvin and Jaymes need to face are so unimaginably hard and I can't imagine being stuck in their situation. The resolution was very well done and I am so invested in these two as a couple.

This was a captivating, romance with a bit of suspense and mystery and I'm 100% looking forward to reading more by this author.

Thank you NetGalley and Montlake for access to the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

3 stars.

Eh, "From Air" was readable, but not as good as some of Jewel E Ann's other books such as "Look the Part." From the synopsis, this book had a lot of promise. I liked the concept of the FMC moving in with a group of firefighters, but I just couldn't find myself caring much about Jaymes or Cal. I enjoyed the first half of the book more so than the second. It felt like a lot of plot twists were thrown in towards the book that should've been developed much earlier in the story. It felt like the story was wandering in the beginning, like I couldn't really figure out the plot or internal needs of the characters.

Overall, From Air is good for a day at the pool, but otherwise, completely forgettable.

4.5 Stars

Jamie + Calvin

25 year old Jamie left her Florida home to work as a travel nurse in Montana for six months. She moves in with three firefighters. Happy for this new opportunity and for the snow. She loves the snow!
Calvin is 35 and a very grumpy smoke jumper.
Everybody keeps warning her away from him - but Jamie is intrigued.
They become friends. Or something... But for some reason he doesn't ever want a serious relationship and she's leaving again in six months anyway.
...

What will happen with Jamie + Calvin?
Will there be a HEA?
READ THE BOOK TO FIND OUT!

══════════════════


That was adorable.
Snowy and funny and sweet and sexy ... but also a bit mysterious and sad and heartbreaking ... I loved reading this.
It was a bit fast and also slow in the beginning - no idea what I mean by that. But it got better and I loved all the people and the snow but I kinda hated his job - which is obviously way too dangerous. But the story is not really much about his job. It's about family and the past and the future and all the things.
Can't wait to see what book #2 will have in store for us.
Will and the Doc? Yes please!

► FROM AIR was a sweet and fun and emotional love story. I loved it. Go read it!

JEA is one of my unicorn authors. I know that every time I crack a book open I'm going to get a plucky heroine, a perfect hero (although her grumpy ones - like Fitz here - are ultimately my fave), and a story with romance, sexy times, and the perfect amount of heart stopping angst. I know I am safe in her hands, so I can just settle in and let the story take me away. And I got exactly what I was expecting and needing. As everything came together, I was reminded of just how brilliantly JEA can weave a storyline. I didn't even see this coming, although all the clues were there. If this were any other author, I would have been searching to try to figure out what was happening. Instead, I was just there, letting it all wash over me. That is what I truly love about JEA.

Compelling storytelling Everytime!

I was lucky to get an advanced copy of Jewel’s November release, and I mean I was LUCKY! She has once again written something totally different than what she’s written before and I couldn’t put it down if I tried!

This opposites attract journey is so much more than its trope. Jamie and Fitz’s story is one that’s going to make you feel for these two emotional baggage carrying individuals. With haunting pasts and unsure futures Jewel has given us a story full of twists and turns that only she can pull off.

This one is a roller coaster, there are super high highs and some pretty low lows, but in the sweet spot is where you will live while you read this one! Do not miss this one, it’s Jewel doing what she does best, which is writing stories I love to read.

This story was mind blowing, something only Jewel could perfect. The banter between Jamie and Fitz was top notch. I laughed until I cried through most of this book. I loved watching Fitz open up his broken self to Jamie. Jamie was such a fierce heroine. This book was more than I expected, and I wish I could read it for the first time again!

If I ever need a book that is a guaranteed five-star read, I can always depend on a Jewel E. Ann book to fit that bill. Her books are just on a higher level than most other romance. From Air was no different. I knew it was going to be a winner two chapters into the book.
We meet Jaymes "Jamie" Andrews as she's moving from Miami to Montana to start her career as a traveling psych patient nurse. There, she rents a room in a house with three other people. Calvin "Fitz" Fitzgerald, Will Landry, and Maren. They have a found family kind of vibe. There is one steadfast unbreakable rule in the house, though, no sleeping with any of the roommates. But when you tell two stubborn people like Jamie and Fitz not to do something, it's like dangling cheese in front of a mouse. 🤣 (IYKYK)
But both Jamie and Fitz are guarded. They both have tragic pasts, and that cause them to erect walls around their hearts. Especially Calvin.
I love stories where the MMC is an alpha jerk, with a heart of gold. Calvin meets this criteria and then some. And Jaymes is so sassy! I adored the flirty banter throughout the entire book. I don't think I've ever read an author who has ever topped Jewel when it comes to writing banter. She just has a God-given talent for it.
Don't be fooled, though. This isn't a sugary, sweet love story. There is angst galore. The push and pull between Jamie and Fitz was palpable. And I was thrown for a loop at a certain plot twist I didn't see coming! Like my eyes bugged out of my head, and I texted my friend who also read it at 3am!
I am really excited about this book being released into the wild for everyone to read come November! And I have everything crossed that we get both Will's and Maren's stories, too!

Thank you to Jewel E Ann and Netgalley for generously providing this ARC.

Amazing! This book had me feeling all the feels, I couldn't put it down and read it in one sitting. Highly recommend

"Love is a jagged knife. If it's not lethal, it leaves, at the very least, a deep scar, an unshakable feeling, a recurring memory... a cheap tattoo."

Another emotional read brought to us by Jewel E. Ann. Jamie and Fitz have completely obliterated my heart and then put all of the pieces back together.

When Jamie moves across the country to start over after losing her mom, she rents a room with three roommates - Will, Maren, and Fitz. Will and Maren welcome her with open arms, while the brooding and grumpy Fitz is very standoffish.

🩶Age gap
🩶Roommates to lovers
🩶Forced proximity
🩶Angsty
🩶Broken MMC

Jamie makes it her mission to get Fitz to open up by the way of pranks. Which were hilarious and brought the banter between them up to top notch!

Watching these two fall in love felt so authentic and realistic. There's Jamie, who loves out loud and with her whole heart. Then there's Fitz who has vowed to never love again and be in a relationship again. His backstory is tragic and he puts his entire life into his job being a smokejumper firefighter.

"Is it okay if I need you. Or is it too late?"

Fate has brought these two together, and no matter what, their feelings and chemistry will always outweigh everything. This is a HARD fought happily ever after, but I was so happy at the end when we finally see them get what they both deserve with each other.

I absolutely love this author and everything she writes. This book....I devoured like all of her others. Thank you so much for the ARC!

⭐⭐⭐⭐
4.5 Stars

Firstly, thank you to Netgalley for allowing me to read this book early, with a release date of November 2024. You are going to want this book for your tbr. Jewel wrote an exceptional book; you will love all the characters and the uniqueness that it brings to this new world.

Jaymes loves the colour yellow, skateboards and loves to help people. Her empathetic nature is perfect in her field as a travel nurse. She was homeschooled so she's a world full of knowledge and loves baking. Fate brought her to meet Calvin, and she was immediately drawn to him. She just had to figure out how to navigate what it was that she was feeling.

Calvin was a beautiful man, a character that had lots of development as the book progressed. (He also gave me a teeny bit of Fisher Mann vibes) He too was homeschooled and had a loyal heart that placed him in the field of Firefighting. He was consistent with his life plans until Jaymes crashed into it. What he knew for certain was no longer what he desired. He was a character that came with lots of pain and suffering so watching him open up was beautiful.

This book brings a touch of forbidden, age gap, angst, pain, friendship and trust. It also brings the matter of fate, love and trying to figure out who you are. It has shared POV, was beautifully written and I can't wait to read the rest of this series.

In true JEA fashion, she had me glued to the pages from beginning to end. This beautiful romance story will make you laugh out loud at the couple's witty banter, and shed many tears over their anguishing journey to get to their HEA. I fell in love with this couple - they are grumpy/sunshine personified - and all of the side characters we met along the way. Fans of JEA's "One" will love this story!!! Just dive in blind and enjoy the bumpy ride!! BRAVO JEA once again!

I felt that the beginning, and ending were too predictable based on other books that I've already read. I don't like the idea that a woman would move to a totally new environment to live with men, and not do enough homework on where she is going even in fiction.

Pure magic! 5 Incredible Stars

Jewel you say, Netgalley you say, ARC out early you say,HELL YEAH!!!!!

I just gotta say by chapter 6 I'm smiling like a loon and getting Scarlett Stone fibes, with the banter. Loving this story with every chapter I read. I have a feeling this book is going to leave me with one hell of a hangover.

Aaahhhhh Calvin, I love him, Can I have him???? He is so funny, such a straight shooter, completely fell in love with his chapters.

Jaymes is a strong female lead I love that about her. She was funny, quick witted just a great character to read.

It always hits me when I'm reading Jewel, "Oh shit I should be looking for clues" "Paying closer attention" . But always hits me too late. I'm left with why didn't I see that how did that pass by me.
Then you reach that one chapter, where all hell breaks loose and I'm literally yelling at my book " Get out no way"!!!!!

Melissa, Will, Maren, Evette and God I love Gary amazing support characters for Jamie and Calvin.

The story is amazing, fresh, entertaining as hell, touching, again tears were shed. I highly recommend this book.
