Serial Burn (Lake City Heroes #3) by Lynette Eason

 

She's out for justice. But the arsonist she's tracking is out for retribution.

Now the fire marshal of Lake City, Jesslyn McCormick is determined to find the person who started the fire that robbed her of her family when she was just seven years old. As the twentieth anniversary of the tragedy approaches, a string of fires--including at Jesslyn's church--brings up all those old feelings and offers new evidence.

Because church fires are considered a hate crime, FBI Special Agent Nathan Carlisle is called in to work with local law enforcement. Nathan has his own past--one he'd prefer not to revisit. And focusing on helping Jesslyn track down the arsonist is a great distraction.

As both the case and the chemistry between Jesslyn and Nathan heat up, memories will come flooding in from the past to bump up against hopes for the future. And when Jesslyn comes face-to-face with her worst nightmare, she'll have to confront her fears and rely on Nathan and her community of friends in order to survive.

My Review


 This is the third book in this series of the Lake City Heroes, and they have recurring characters, but you could read this one alone.
This is Deputy State Fire Marshal Jesslyn McCormick, we learn about her and her family, and this story does get very personal for her.
Then we have FBI Special Agent Nathan Carlisle, investigating the fires, and we also learn some facts about his family life, and are offered some sweet romance between these two, but are either able to accept it?
I love Lynette Eason's books, they never disappoint, and all page turners, this one met the mark!
As the fires, or arson, happen, what is the connection, scary times, danger and maybe loss of life.
The answers come, and this is deep, but we hope that all will survive to the end!
I received this book through Net Galley and the Publisher Revell, and was not required to give a positive review.
