Pre-Owned Quantico Profilers: Texas Smoke Screen: An Uplifting Romantic Suspense (Paperback)(Large Print)

Wow! The fear of fire is very real in the pages of this book. It will give you the shivers! FBI profiler Vera Gilmore knows all about the dangers of fire. She has the visible scars to prove it, as well as the invisible ones that she feels emotionally. Detective Brooks Brawley needs her expert assistance with none other than a serial arsonist. She is the best, but this case will be hard for her because not only is it about fire, but Brooks is her former boyfriend. Both Vera and Brooks have suffered devastating loss in their lives and are widowed. Brooks has a high strung daughter named Katie who keeps acting out, which makes his job so much harder. Katie has some emotional scars of her own due to the loss of her mother. The emotions in this book run deep, and those emotions come out in the characters' personalities. Jessica Patch always develops her characters so that you feel empathy for them and can feel their distress as if you know them personally. I got so involved in reading this book that I could imagine the heat of the fire and the bullets whizzing past. I always am completely engrossed in her books. She knows how to draw the reader into the story. The jaw dropping ending left me speechless. This is another winner from a top notch author who has addictive storytelling down to a science! This book is no exception! Thank you to the author for this ARC. I am leaving this review voluntarily.
