Customer Reviews

A must read

The first book in NR's 'Born In' series is wonderful, you don't want to miss it! "Born In Fire" focuses on Maggie Concannon, a tempermental and loyal woman who is also a gifted artist. Gallery owner Rogan Sweeney takes an interest in Maggie's fabulous glass creations, and soon after takes a personal interest in Maggie herself. Maggie is a wonderful character, stubborn and flawed, yet still caring. Nora does a fabulous job of developing Maggie, and does it in a way that she seems like a real person. Rogan is an extremely likeable hero. Maggie's sister, Brianna, is her complete opposite; quiet, sweet, and calm. The relationship between the two sisters, however, is very touching and very real. This book is full of colourful characters, some we love and some we hate. The romance between Rogan and Maggie is wonderful. Basically, I just can't say enough good things about this book. You will love it!

Wonderful

The whole series of Born In.. books together is great. Although each book can stand alone. Three sisters grow in self knowlege as they forge bonds among themselves. During this time, each woman begins to find a special man that helps her develop and grow emotionally. What a wonderful set of books. I have to say that this is one of my favorite trilogies and strongly feel that any one of these books are great reads.

Love is a wonderful thing....

And the sparks fly in this book! The first of an Irish trilogy, Nora Roberts' first, this was one I couldn't put down. The characters come alive on the pages, and Nora Roberts never has a dull character-Maggie is a glass blower in Ireland, Rogan a gallery owner. Maggie and Rogan go round and round and are vey entertaining! Maggie dead set on never being any man's wife and Rogan always getting what he wants. Back and forth they go, but of course, in the end, love wins! A great read!

My first but not my last Nora Roberts book.

I'd heard of Nora Roberts but had never read any of her books. This trilogy was given to me by someone at work. I've read the first two (Born in Fire and Born in Ice) and am greatly anticipating Born in Shame. Highly recommend!!

Delightful read, exciting vibrant characters, wonderful love

this is the first of the "Born In" stories and the one I enjoyed most. The fire and creativity of the heroine was wonderfully believable. Her interaction with her sister and mother was very realistic. Her love story was funny and wonderful. After reading this book, I had to buy the other two, which I also enjoyed tremendously. I have read these books several times and enjoy them equally each time.
