  Action novelist Alex Jordan had seen his share of real-life adventure. But he'd returned to his hometown determined to settle down--until a series of mysterious fires threatened the close-knit community. Then insurance investigator Kristin Delaney appeared on the scene, and soon her caring warmth had Alex considering an altogether new vision of home and hearth ....
