Title: Gold In the Fire Author: Margaret Daley Publisher: Steeple Hill ISBN: 0-373-87283-6 Genre: Inspirational/Contemporary/Romance
After ten long years, Darcy O'Brien is finally returning to the ranch she was raised on. It's time her son, Sean, met his grandpa, and time for Darcy to face the ghosts of her past. Her father has recently had a heart attack and needs her help in running the ranch-if only the stubborn man will allow it.
Firefighter Joshua Markham doesn't mind facing danger when it means putting out a fire, but he isn't quite ready to risk his heart. Still, he can't deny his attraction to Darcy O'Brien and her son. When an arsonist begins targeting ranches, Joshua must come to Darcy's rescue.
Darcy keeps telling herself not to give in to her attraction to the gallant and handsome Joshua. After all, she's only in town for the summer, and her track record with men isn't all that good. Plus, she can tell that Joshua still isn't over the woman who left him standing at the altar. Is there any hope for two wounded souls to find love?
Gold In the Fire is the compelling tale of two people learning to trust again. As Joshua and Darcy's attraction grows, both must face past hurts that left them reeling and feeling they can never risk loving again. Darcy also has the added pressure of mending her estranged relationship with her willful father.
Margaret Daley has penned another engaging tale that readers have come to expect from this talented author. She brings the setting of Kentucky ranch life alive. Joshua is a wonderful hero, but not without his own faults and troubles. He relies on his faith to get him through. Readers are sure to sympathize with Darcy, a young widow and single mother, struggling to find out where she belongs. A gentle faith message enhances the enjoyment of this charming book. Don't miss out on Gold In the Fire, Book One in Daley's The Ladies of Sweetwater Lake series.
