Work detailsFace the Fire by Nora Roberts (2002)
None. ereader ebook This group of books - The 'Three Sisters Island Trilogy' are the ONLY Nora Roberts I've read . . . and probably all that I'll read. Better romance novels than I've run into before and I really did like this series. Just not my type of reading so will leave the rest to others. Read in 2006. Listened to the Playaway narrated by Sandra Burr. Eh - while this was enjoyable, I definitely gravitated towards Riley and Mac's story more. I think sometimes I just have very little patience for the broody hero thing that Sam does. Also, in order to build suspense about the final outcome, we never get to see Mia's actual decision happen or her emotions progress the final few steps. We just jump bam from "I don't want a real relationship with you although I'm obviously torn" to "I'm enough of my own person to love you no matter what and survive" with Mia telling us about the process later instead of showing it. I did like the touch of the townspeople providing support at the end. By this time, I liked Sandra Burr's interpretation of Mia's voice, but Sam and Zack could be hard to distinguish at times. Something that's bothered me through all three books, is the rather affected way Mia refers to Nell as "little sister," but I think that's Roberts' writing as opposed to Burr's narration. Despite the minor issues above, I still greatly enjoyed this and couldn't wait to get back in my car to finish listening. Really enjoyed these books. I did think that after all the build-up, and especially with this one being the final book of the trilogy, it ended rather abruptly. A bit of a let-down right at the very end. The conclusion of the trilogy. Mia Devlin's demons must be faced - not just the evil that stalks the island, but within her own heart. Can she forgive Sam Logan for leaving her? The most powerful of the three also faces the strongest evil. no reviews | add a review Is contained in

Sensuality: 7
A stunningly beautiful, powerful witch who possesses the gift of Fire, Mia Devlin locked her heart away when Sam Logan rejected her youthful love and left Three Sisters Island. Eleven years later, Sam returns to the island to claim Mia and take over his family business, the Magick Inn. Passion still burns between them, but Mia refuses to trust the man who once tore her life apart, leaving her grieving and alone. It's imperative that they find a way to resolve their thorny, complicated relationship for time is running out and the deadline for breaking a centuries-old curse is near. Mia has the steadfast aid of her two sisters of the heart, powerful witches that rule Air and Earth, but without Sam's help, even Mia's powers may not be enough to keep her alive until the deadline. And unless Mia makes the right choice about her heart and Sam, evil may win in the final confrontation, destroying all their lives and Three Sisters Island as well.
Face the Fire is the third and last book in bestselling author Nora Roberts's trilogy of witches, magic, and an age-old curse that began with Dance upon the Air and Heaven and Earth. This novel boasts a vivid seaside setting, sympathetic characters, and enough details about the practice of magic to intrigue the most cynical of readers. This is Roberts at her best. Don't miss it. --Lois Faye Dyer
