About this ebook
Incomparable #1 New York Times bestselling author Nora Roberts delivers a tale of gut-level fear, human triumph, and the bonds that carry us through our darkest times…
Reena Hale’s destiny was shaped in the destructive—yet fascinatingly beautiful—fire that leveled her family’s pizzeria when she was young. Now an arson investigator, she finds her strength and wits constantly tested, although sometimes the job seems like a snap compared to her love life. But she can’t always blame the men. 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’s 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...

Good book...ike most of her books. My one criticism or complaint if you want to call it that is..as with most books I read is: I read 400 pages more or less and then feel cheated by the endings..which to me are not endings at all. I feel cheated as if I'm left hanging...I like epilogs that complete the stories...it's like "well I ran out of words so The End" I hate that. The better the book the more I hate that.

I really enjoyed reading this book. but one thing that occurred to me, how does the killer know who reena seeing??? Cuz Nora Roberts never brings it up in the book. Great book though.
