Why read it?

1 author picked Chasing Fire as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

Nora Roberts can always be counted on to write authentic stories, and she makes me care about her characters. This one is dear to my heart because I lived and worked in Missoula, Montana, where the story is set.

This story is also set at the Missoula Smokejumper Base, where I trained as a wildland firefighter. This story has twists and turns, and the slow-burn romance, along with the close-knit wildland fire community, kept me turning the pages.

From LoLo's list on the perilous world of firefighting.
