Samuel Faa, a high-powered lawyer and Chosen One, lived a childhood full of heartache and loneliness because of his Gypsy heritage. Samuel's attempt to steal from a wealthy family found him caught by the butler. Though not sure what Mrs. Mason saw in him, it was enough for her to take him across the world, bathe him, educate him and have the butler adopt him.

Alone and terrified, Samuel hid away only to be found by Mrs. Mason's daughter, Isabelle, who comforted him and took away his pain with just the touch of her hand. Samuel and Isabelle became close friends, then teenage lovers, until their romance was cut short when Isabelle's mother sent her away to school. Samuel and Isabelle find each other again, but he makes the mistake of using his Chosen One talent of reading minds on Isabelle to finish a case, losing her again.

After Samuel uses his power on Isabelle to gain information, Isabelle feels betrayed and leaves Samuel and her heart behind. Five years later, seeing Samuel in a tux does wonderful things to her heart, but since Samuel and Isabelle work for the same company using their Chosen powers for the greater good, she must put her feelings aside as they work together to save an abused kidnapped child. While on the mission, everything goes wrong, leaving Isabelle and Samuel to fend for the lives and face their feelings for each other.

CHAINS OF FIRE is an exciting, dangerous and powerful addition to the Chosen Ones series. A great read!
