Description
The blaze that night at her family’s pizzeria changed young Reena Hale’s life in more ways
than one. Neighbors and relatives would pull together to help the Hales get through the crisis
and rebuild. The Baltimore authorities would arrest the arsonist responsible. But as Reena
gazed into the fire, beheld its brutal beauty and destructive power, her destiny began to take
shape. She would study, struggle, and walk the gauntlet to understand and master its terrible
force—and one day become an investigator herself.
But she is not the only one fascinated by the flames. Someone else sees their power as
well—and is obsessed not with conquering the fire but with controlling it, owning it, using it to
exact vicious revenge.…
When Reena achieves her goal and joins the arson unit, her strength and wits are constantly
tested. Though sometimes the job seems like a snap compared to her love life. One relationship
after another has ended for her—some in tragedy or drama, some not with a bang but with a
whimper. And she can’t always blame them—after all, a soot-caked woman barking orders and
smelling of smoke isn’t the biggest turn-on in the world. Then she meets Bo Goodnight, who
seems different. He’s been trying to find Reena for years, and now that she is close enough to
touch, he has no intention of letting go.
Nor does the man who has begun to haunt Reena’s life—with taunting phone calls and a string
of horrifying crimes. And as Reena tries desperately to trace the origins—of the calls, the fires,
the hatred aimed in her direction—she will step into the worst inferno she has ever faced.…
Insightful reviews

BJ Rose: This was a reread for me, and I think I liked it even more the second time. Obviously
the suspense was muted, but I was surprised at how many details I had forgotten about the fires
and deaths. This time I was able to concentrate more on the emotions and interactions of the
characters, and this was simply wonderful! I know some readers were disappointed with the
slow development - Reena and Bo didn't even meet until nearly 200 pages into the story! - but
to me the strength of this story is in the gradual buildup of events through the years, which
actually puts more tension into the current-day events. Above all, I loved the strength of family
love and support that Ms. Roberts shows us throughout this story, and the way the Hale family
extended that love so completely and naturally to Bo.
Here's a couple of my favorite 'mom-isms' from Mrs. Hale:
"We're still your parents, and we'll be your parents a hundred years after you're dead."
"Your father has realized what was obvious - that I was right."
I come from a large family, so this line just seemed so natural to me: "The floor was littered with
kids of varying ages, with adults stepping over or around them." Yup, that's how it's done!
Jaime: I really enjoyed this. I liked how Reena and Bo circled around each other for years. It did
seem that it took Reena a bit too long to connect all the fires together. I mean, who has fire
touch their life *that* much? And the ending seemed a little rushed. But all in all, it was romantic
and suspenseful, as any good Nora Roberts should be.
Cathy: they have been exhibiting loads of Nora's books-that-made-it-into-movies over the
following lately, and because i've got all of them on my Tivo I figured it was once an exceptional
cause to head on a little bit a Nora Roberts kick.And this could be my favorite of hers so far. or
even tied for first position with Montana Sky. I enjoyed Montana Sky.This rather labored for me.
i'm mostly keen on ignored possibilities and likelihood encounters and whatnot, and ok yeah, Bo
did appear very bizarre whilst first assembly Reena seeing that she had no inspiration who he
was, yet I wasn't bothered. I form of enjoyed them much lengthy sooner than they ever met.I
pointed out with Reena in a few ways, too. The relocating from your parents' position to an
apartment, yet no longer relocating a ways simply because you are just about so much of your
family. The deciding to buy estate round the time you are 30 and at the same time being excited
and freaking out approximately that. I observed loads of myself in her, which would in part clarify
why she was once this type of nice heroine for me.The suspence a part of the storyline
additionally grabbed me greater than a few of her others have. Yes, there has been loads of
drama, yet I primarily simply anticipate there to be at this point. And for a few reason, the drama
element labored here. As always, though, i did not want the undesirable guy's POVs yet they
have been brief and reasonably constrained so i am giving that one a pass. nonetheless do not
rather comprehend why they have been necessary, particularly because it used to be beautiful
visible from the get-go who the offender might end up to be.I'm additionally taking it down a
celebrity due to (view spoiler)[the scene the place Reena all at once simply throws in the market
that she desires to get married and feature Bo's babies, even if they truly hadn't been
relationship that long. It used to be a bit out of the blue, and one of many issues i actually
beloved approximately this ebook was once that it spans 20 years, from Reena's youth
onwards. even if these two decades have been unrelated to the romance, i might been hoping
we would not prove with a truly rushed dating and this nonetheless felt a bit rushed to me.
whether I did think their romance 100%. (hide spoiler)]But except these (very minor) complaints,
i really form of enjoyed this.ETA: I completely forgot to say the tremendous family members
point in this, which I ADORED. I enjoyed all of them. Sisters, brother and fogeys alike. A+

Mushanga Vandenbussche: Toen Reena Hale klein used to be zag ze hoe het eating place van
haar ouders afbrandde voor haar ogen. Ze probeerde de onderzoekers te helpen met het
zoeken naar de dader en dat is wat haar inspireerde om ook politieagent en onderzoeker te
worden. Het vuur blijft haar echter achtervolgen in haar leven. Haar eerste vriendje stierf in een
model en een ander vriendje werd doodgeschoten en dan werd zijn automobile in model
gestoken. Hoewel er een connectie zou kunnen zijn tussen al deze gebeurtenissen merkt
Reena het niet echt op en gaat ze verder met haar leven.Als ze verhuist naar een nieuw huis,
ontmoet ze een guy met de naam Bo. Hij bekent dat hij al verliefd is op haar van toen hij haar
voor het eerst op een feestje zag thirteen jaar geleden. Ze beginnen te daten en vallen
uiteindelijk challenging voor elkaar.Op het second dat hun relatie echter begint, ontvangt Reena
infrequent en enge telefoontjes. De beller stuurt haar naar branden die hij heeft aangestoken.
De branden lijken steeds dichter en dichter bij haar huis te worden aangestoken. Opeens
ontdekt Reena dat de guy die verantwoordelijk is voor de branden, de zoon is van de guy die
het eating place van haar ouders in model stak. Hij steekt huizen en bedrijven in model van alle
mensen die ook maar iets met deze zaak te maken hadden. Dit is zijn manier om zijn vader te
wreken. Reena zoekt naar een oplossing en probeert hem te stoppen voor hij haar of Bo
vermoordt. Ik vond het een zeer leuk boek. Ik hou van Nora Roberts haar boeken. Ik vind ze
ook zeer prachtig geschreven en verteld. Ze houdt de spanning er steeds in tot op het laatse
second en dan valt de ontknoping. Ik vind het tremendous hoe er ook heel wat onverwachte
wendingen inkomen zoals de ontdenking dat de guy van de branden en enge telefoontjes de
zoon is van de guy die hun eating place in model stak zoveel jaar geleden. Ook de actie en de
romantiek die erin is verwerkt zijn geweldig. Het boek leest ook zeer gemakkelijk en heel vlot en
is zeker niet ingewikkeld.
Cindy Newton: As always, it did what it was once imagined to do--entertain me. if you are trying
to find a booklet that exposes deep truths in regards to the human condition, or examines a few
stark fact of life, you are not going to choose up a romance. Romance examining is like
observing a sitcom. it truly is whatever to take your brain on a brief journey via fantasyland for a
brief interval of time. you are not particularly searching for deep research of symbolism,
personality development, or subject matter if you decide up a romance. but when you are going
to learn a senseless romance, Nora Roberts is the best way to go. Her prose is fluent, her
characters likable, and he or she absolutely nails dialogue--it's her gift. So if you are searching
for a learn you could whiz via and simply benefit from the story, then she's your girl!
