Blaze By Susan Johnson
For the first time in her life she was facing a man she couldn't handle. He knew the white man's ways—and every woman's secrets. . . .
Boston heiress Blaze Braddock, known more for her daring than her discretion, had insisted on trying to persuade the mysterious Absarokee Indian to sell his land claim to her father. But the moment she felt the impact of his tall, rangy body, the heat of his seductive dark eyes, and the drugging warmth that stole through her sense at his skilled touch, she knew she'd been more than reckless to put herself in his hands.
Jon Hazard Black was no savage barbarian but the Harvard-educated son of an Absarokee chief. He knew the value of his land; the gold that ran beneath it would be the salvation of his people. And not even this dangerously tempting beauty could convince him to sell. Held captive by a man who was her sworn enemy, Blaze was swept up in a storm of passions she had never imagined—possessed by a man who vowed he would keep forever what was his. . . .
“Susan Johnson's love scenes sparkle, sizzle and burn!”—Affaire de Coeur

I read this book when the first paperback came out back in the 80's. Loved it then and have read all of Susan Johnsons historical books. So of course, they were added to my kindle as well. This book is awesome Me - not one complaint. Who can complain with such a gorgeous Native American to read about and the love of his life. She was only 19 and may have been oversexed but I would guess most women stuck in a one room cabin with that awesome male would be. Hazard and Blaze have a love for all ...

This book is awesome Me - not one complaint. Who can complain with such a gorgeous Native American to read about and the love of his life. She was only 19 and may have been oversexed but I would guess most women stuck in a one room cabin with that awesome male would be. Hazard and Blaze have a love for all time. Blaze was a young, headstrong, spoiled heiress and Hazard was chief of his Clan. Two heads butting until Hazard fell in love and would do anything for Blaze. There were, of course, the villain's who they ran from as well. The scenery descriptions were so well done I could picture them as I read. This is a not to be missed - exciting, sexy and well written.

I even had to take this one to the bathroom with me. didn't want the book to end. If you like historical romance like I do, you will absolutely love this book. strong proud Indian male, white redheaded spoiled female. story takes place In Colorado, around the 1860's. this book will NOT disappoint you.

3.5 stars. After all these years of being a huge Susan Johnson fan, I finally read Blaze!! To tell you the truth, the reason why I didn't read this book before is because I was never really a big fan of the Native American Indian romance. The storyline just never appealed to me. I hate reading historical settings in which a set of ignorant people feel like they are superior to others because of the color of their skins. I know it's never really the hero or heroine, but it still annoys. That's...
3.5 stars. After all these years of being a huge Susan Johnson fan, I finally read Blaze!! To tell you the truth, the reason why I didn't read this book before is because I was never really a big fan of the Native American Indian romance. The storyline just never appealed to me. I hate reading historical settings in which a set of ignorant people feel like they are superior to others because of the color of their skins. I know it's never really the hero or heroine, but it still annoys. That's why I stayed away from American historicals for so long. I just recently got a backbone and started venturing in that territory. I still can't deal with slavery being involved in my romance though. I know it's naive but I read to get away from all the crap that goes on in this world and that's one period I hate reading about. I have a tendency to sympathize with the injustice of the secondary characters in that setting more than the leads and it takes away from the romance for me. Anywho, this is SJ we are talking about here, so I knew no one was gonna make my hero feel like he was less than. And Hazard certainly lived up to the expectations! He was magnificent! I said this before and I'll say it again, no one writes a hero like SJ! Talk about a drop dead gorgeous hero!
This was a nice read. Not a five star read for me, but it kept my interest.
I loved Hazard and I loved Blaze and the chemistry between them was scorching hot, but 500 pages was a bit much and the storyline was a little unrealistic. I never really understood how keeping Blaze captive helped him with his claim and I
especially didn't buy that her father and all his male companions, in that day and age would have let her go up into an Indian's cabin alone to negotiate a deal. Puleeze!
Also, I wished that the hero didn't have other kids because he never saw them or mentioned them much, so it seemed like he didn't care about them, and it only put him in a bad light in my eyes. I wanted to smack him! What about your 3 other kids dude?! And did anyone else notice that him and Blaze didn't get married for real! Tell me if I missed something, but It was only in the Indian custom that they were married and all he had to do was say she was his wife! No ceremony, no paper signing, no nothing! Get the heck outa here! I want a real wedding my friend! All in all though, I'm glad that I gave this book a try and I loved seeing the old SJ in action once again and it reminded me why I loved her.

Final Susan Johnson book (in a group) I purchased from this Seller. I desired to re-establish my Susan Johnson Collection for My Library. Each has the same Cover Art of those I originally owned (highly desired). All books are as described. Would do business with this Seller again.

By far one of my favorite books. I have read it several times. This is my first story that is about the West. People as strong as Jon and Blaze made a great story, fighting greed and the entitlement that still exists to this very day. Well done Miss Johnson!!!!
