[.ca] Born In Fire (Cd) (Unabr.) (ISBN 1423332709)

The first of three:
Two sisters and a nasty, bitter and unloving mother make up the setting for the beginning of an entertaining triology. Maggie is high spirited and artistic with a special talent for glass blowing. Brianna is a sweet, caring homebody who longs for her own business. Maggie is devoted to her father who believes in her, but dies early in the story leaving her to provide for Brianna and her mother. A famous art dealer discovers Maggie and introduces her to romance and success although not necessarily in that order. Born in Fire is a good read; I'm glad I read it first and will go on to Born in Ice and Born in Shame.

Nora Roberts never disappoints me:
This book was awesome.....I was not ready for it to end.

Lovely Story...:
Rogan Sweeney is one of the most memorable heros ever. I just loved him! He was so cool, no matter what. Just the way he punched in telephone numbers, or as in another book he was in, the way in which he handled his little boy while on their private plane, (the kid had a tendancy to draw on things). What a guy! He had everything, didn't he?

Born In Fire:
I came upon this book out of curiosity and economy...This book was in a hardcover edition with the other two titles of the Trilogy...Well all I can say is that there should have been a warning label on the book Rated: TJ...tear jerker...I would have had a box of Kleenex by my side while I read...because that is how moving I found the books. I thoroughly enjoyed all the books...I cried and laughed with the characters of the story...I highly recommend this trilogy. I will be looking forward to reading more of Ms. Roberts works in the future

A must read:
The first book in NR's 'Born In' series is wonderful, you don't want to miss it! "Born In Fire" focuses on Maggie Concannon, a tempermental and loyal woman who is also a gifted artist. Gallery owner Rogan Sweeney takes an interest in Maggie's fabulous glass creations, and soon after takes a personal interest in Maggie herself. Maggie is a wonderful character, stubborn and flawed, yet still caring. Nora does a fabulous job of developing Maggie, and does it in a way that she seems like a real person. Rogan is an extremely likeable hero. Maggie's sister, Brianna, is her complete opposite; quiet, sweet, and calm. The relationship between the two sisters, however, is very touching and very real. This book is full of colourful characters, some we love and some we hate. The romance between Rogan and Maggie is wonderful. Basically, I just can't say enough good things about this book. You will love it!
