When it comes to trilogies, Nora Roberts does it best since they're always different but coherent. In this one, three sisters comes together across three different books. I would like to say that, like the other trilogies, I loved all the stories, but I really felt like Born in Fire was the best, and everything thereafter was a little tepid. This is, admitedly, because my favourite of NR's 3 basic heroines in the one found in Fire, so starting there was just going to be a downhill ride for me. Regardless, I found myself finishing this set in a hurry, and it was a good read, despite the tempestuous start. :) ( )

My first Nora Roberts book/series, not counting her JD Robb books, and very much one of my favorites. The sisters in these books are individual, and each is fascinating in different ways. The mother/daughter relationships -- Maggie's and Brianna's with Maeve -- add an angsty element that hooked me into the series. Since I'm not heterosexual, the only thing that would have made these books better, imo, is if the main characters were lesbian. :) ( )

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0399143882, Hardcover)

Born in Fire: Maggie Concannon is a glassmaker whose exquisite works are more than mere objects of beauty: they are reflections of her own true nature. When gallery owner Rogan Sweeney comes to Maggie's isolated studio, her heart is enflamed by their fierce attraction - and her scarred past is slowly healed by a gentle and forgiving love. Born in Ice: When the harsh storms of winter descend upon western Ireland, the locals stay indoors - and visitors stay away. Brianna Concannon's bed-and-breakfast becomes a cold and empty place. This year, though, she's expecting an unusual guest - mystery writer Grayson Thane - from America. A restless wanderer with a dark past, he plans to spend the cold winter alone. Yet sometimes fate has a plan of its own. Born in Shame: Shannon Bodine is a talented graphic artist whose life revolves around her job at a prestigious New York advertising agency. Her world is turned upside down when she learns the identity of her real father: Thomas Concannon. Respecting her late mother's wish, Shannon travels to County Clare. There, her loneliness and shame melt away in the embrace of family. And amid the lush Irish landscape, she discovers the possibility of a love that is meant to be.
