"On The Volcano will take you on an emotional roller coaster ride which is both complex and will leave at least four people dead. This is also a tender love story packed with heart pounding action. It will have you turning pages from the beginning to the last page. A must read not only for the young adult 12+ but also for the young at heart. And any historical romance readers. A great read."
