Through the Fire by Shawn Grady
Song Stuck on the Brain: Just the Way You Are
Today I'm Featuring Through the Fire by Shawn Grady.
I know I featured this book last month, but I'm giving away a copy this month and I wanted to tell you all how much I loved the book.
Shawn Grady is a firefighter through and through. He's been in the trenches and lived to tell about it. I did a lot of research on the fire community for a book I wrote a few years back, but there is no way you could research long enough to give the reader the same feel that Shawn gives. It's intense and so real you can taste the smoke.
As if that isn't enough to grab your attention, his writing almost has a poetic feel to it. A hybrid of literary prose, high octane action and true to life story telling. As a reader I was hooked, as a writer I'm truly inspired.
Find out more about the book HERE. Visit Shawn's website HERE.
If you want to enter to win a copy of Through the Fire, click on the book cover in the top of the sidebar to email me your entry. The contest ends at midnight August 31st, though, so enter right away!

CFBA: Through the Fire by Shawn Grady
Song Stuck on the Brain: Baby Take Your Bow by Chris Rice
This week, the Christian Fiction Blog Alliance is introducing:
Through The Fire
by
Shawn Grady Bethany House (July 1, 2009)
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Firefighting burns in Aidan O'Neill's blood. The son of a fireman, O'Neill has a sixth sense about fire and often takes dangerous risks. When one act of disobedience nearly gets a rookie killed, O'Neill is suspended. His weeks off are supposed to be a time to reflect but instead he escapes to Mexico, where another rash act of bravery actually kills him. But only for a few minutes.
Called back to Reno, he's now haunted by visions of hell and paralyzed in the face of fire. And at the worst time, because an arsonist is targeting Reno. With a growing love interest with one of the investigators complicating everything, Aidan must discover where his trust rests as the fires creep ever closer.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR:
Shawn Grady signed with Bethany House Publishers in 2008. He was named “Most Promising New Writer” at the 39th Annual Mount Hermon Writers Conference. Through the Fire is his debut novel.
Shawn has served for over a decade as a firefighter and paramedic in northern Nevada. From fire engines and ambulances to tillered ladder trucks and helicopters, Shawn’s work environment has always been dynamic. The line of duty has carried him to a variety of locale, from high-rise fires in the city to the burning heavy timber of the eastern Sierras.
Shawn attended Point Loma Nazarene University as a Theology undergrad before shifting direction to acquire an Associate of Science degree in Fire Science Technology as well as Paramedic licensure through Truckee Meadows Community College.
Shawn currently lives in Reno, Nevada, just outside of Lake Tahoe. He enjoys spending time in the outdoors with his wife, three children and yellow Labrador.
