Jordan sneaks down the hospital hallway holding her IV cart searching for the right room. She's got to find her and tell her everything before it is too late.  So sets the stage for CROSSING BURNING BRIDGES.

 Jordan Walsh sits before the unconscious young woman, Zoe, and begins to tell her life story. After a few moments, she tells Zoe that they are sisters.  Jordan is about to explain why that is and how it is so.

Jordan begins with her Indian background. Then she moves on to the beginning of her acting career at the age of eight and how her alcoholic mother burned down their home after drinking "magic juice."  This led to Jordan and her brother, Tommy, being placed in foster care. After a brief time the courts decide to send them to live with their grandparents. Gamma makes Jordan perform one good deed each day. Gampy begins to explain and drill her on the ins and outs of the stock market.

She reminisces to Zoe of how at eleven she got her first speaking part and her career took off. Her parents divorced, however, her father still had control over her money. Eventually, he stole every penny she had earned. As she gets older she receives a part playing next to her idol actress, Alexandria Sherman "Lexy". They become almost inseparable friends. 

After her first husband vanishes following a plane crash, Jordan meets and falls for a hot new actor Adam Mcquire as they meet on the set of her new movie.  Jordan and Adam get married and begin a family by having triplets, life is going well, their careers are doing well and the house is full of family. Then one day one of the babies is stolen, which leads to murder and the adventure of a lifetime, Jordan continues to tell all to unconscious young Zoe, her sister for she must finish the story before morning arrives. 

CROSSING BURNING BRIDGES is thoroughly enjoyable. Cyndie M. Styles mixes, compassion, humor, family backgrounds, family obligations, and mystery into the plot with just the right increments to keep the reader turning the pages and not wanting to put the book down. Her next book due out is titled "Snakes in Paha Sapa, Tale of a LaKota Nation."
