From the Flames

the long version

Every day had been much like another for Marie Russo. Overwhelmed by grief after her fireman husband was killed, she had simply stopped caring. But one day the pale face she didn't recognize in the mirror convinced her it was time to start a new life. Marie's new career as a paralegal helped her to live again--and political candidate Jack Clancy soon taught her to love again as well. Full of humor and, passion, he drove away the loneliness that had haunted Marie's nights. But the mystery behind her husband's death still haunted her--and now threatened to destroy their newfound trust.
