Born In Fire

Set in the enchanting landscape of western Ireland, Born in Fire tells the captivating story of the Concannon sisters, Maggie and Brianna, who are as different as the vibrant elements of the countryside they inhabit. Maggie Concannon is a temperamental artist whose passion and creativity are unmatched. Her skill as a glassblower is her solace and her strength, allowing her to forge beautiful works of art that are as bold as her spirit. Her fiery nature, however, often puts her at odds with those around her, especially her embittered mother.

In stark contrast, Brianna Concannon is gentle and composed, a calming force in the midst of family turmoil. She runs a quaint bed and breakfast, managing to pacify their mother’s relentless criticism with her unwavering patience. Beneath their mother’s harsh exterior and the sisters' tumultuous relationship lies a web of secrets from the past, waiting to be unravelled.

When renowned international gallery owner Rogan Sweeney visits Maggie’s small cottage in the picturesque County Clare, he is immediately struck by her exceptional talent. Determined to catapult her career to new heights, Rogan’s professional interest in Maggie quickly becomes complicated as their strong personalities provoke a tumultuous but irresistible chemistry. Maggie finds herself caught in a whirlwind of emotions, struggling to balance the burgeoning success of her career with her tumultuous feelings for Rogan who challenges her in ways she never imagined.

As Maggie’s masterpieces begin to attract global acclaim, she must navigate the intoxicating glare of the spotlight. Amidst this newfound fame, she is forced to confront her deepest fears and desires, and decide what she truly wants from life and love. Can she overcome the shadows of her past and forge a future as dazzling as the art she creates, or will the same passions that fuel her work ultimately consume her?

Born in Fire by Nora Roberts is a powerful and evocative tale of ambition, love, and the complex bonds of family that shape our destinies. The first instalment in the breathtaking Irish Born Trilogy, it sets the stage for an unforgettable journey of the heart.
