She lost her partner the season before, and she's still haunted by the memory of his death. She's been working as a wildfire fighter since she was eighteen, helping to control and put out forest fires across Western United States.

Rowan Tripp is a senior fire fighter for the Missoula A. Now to be honest, I'm not very domestic, so the florist and pasty chef, while interesting, weren't really anything to go 'WOW' about! On the other hand, Chasing Fire totally gripped my attention. Whether she's writing about a pastry chef, or a journalist or wildfire fighter, you always feel like you're standing right there with them, seeing how they go about their lives, and learning the ins and outs of each career. I've mentioned this before, and I'll say it again, Nora Roberts' characters have the BEST careers ever. So after a long dry spell, (heh heh) Nora Roberts is ON FIRE!!! (I'm SO punny!) Okay, I'll stop now. Protection of Endangered Species: Fireman in the Wild WARNING: This review may prove to be dangerously combustible! But if she doesn’t find someone she can lean on when the heat gets intense, her life may go down in flames. Rowan knows she can’t complicate things with Gull-any distractions in the air or on the ground could be lethal. And though Rowan, as a rule, doesn’t hook up with other smoke jumpers, Gull is convinced he can change her mind.īut everything is thrown off balance when a dark presence lashes out against Rowan, looking to blame someone for last year’s tragedy.

One of the best of this year’s rookie crop, Gulliver Curry is a walking contradiction, a hotshot firefighter with a big vocabulary and a winter job at a kids’ arcade.

At this point, returning to the wilds of Montana for the season feels like coming home-even with reminders of the partner she lost last season still lingering in the air. Being a Missoula smoke jumper is in Rowan’s blood: her father is a legend in the field. But there’s also little else as thrilling-at least to Rowan Tripp. Little else in life is as dangerous as fire jumping. In this #1 New York Times bestseller, Nora Roberts delves into the world of elite firefighters who thrive on danger and adrenaline-men and women who wouldn’t know how to live life if it wasn’t on the edge.
