Miranda Ellis is not a happy character. Her odd gift appears
to bring her nothing but heartbreak. When she endures yet
another disappointment, the loss of her family's fortune,
she must make a hard decision. Lord Archer isn't the easiest
man to get along with; ornery and grumpy, even he cannot
resist Miranda when she needs help. Lord Archer asks for
Miranda's hand in marriage and the beginning of a solid
partnership begins to take hold.
Lord Archer has a right to be ornery, he is badly disfigured
on one side of his face from an event the reader will avidly
read about. He tends to remain in hiding and refuses to let
anyone close, hiding his face from the world. Miranda
attempts to coax the stubborn Lord from his shell, but it
proves no easy task. When the Lord is accused of murders,
Miranda must decide whether to stick by his side or give in
to outside pressure.
Miranda's character is sympathetic. She doesn't fall in self
pity mode when she has every right to and remains a fairly
strong female character. The reader will admire her
perseverance when it comes to Lord Archer. Lord Archer will
tug at the readers' heartstrings. He is the epitome of a
sympathetic character and reminiscent of Beauty and the
Beast.
The events in FIRELIGHT are fast-paced. Miranda thinks on
her feet and Lord Archer remains stuck in his ways. The
reader will love reading about Lord Archer's slow
progression and their relationship. Do not miss this new
book from debut author Kristin Callihan!
London, 1881 Once the flames are ignited . .
. Miranda Ellis is a woman tormented. Plagued
since birth by a strange and powerful gift, she has spent
her entire life struggling to control her exceptional
abilities. Yet one innocent but irreversible mistake has
left her family's fortune decimated and forced her to wed
London's most nefarious nobleman.
They will
burn for eternity . . . Lord Benjamin Archer
is
no ordinary man. Doomed to hide his disfigured face behind
masks, Archer knows it's selfish to take Miranda as his
bride. Yet he can't help being drawn to the flame-haired
beauty whose touch sparks a passion he hasn't felt in a
lifetime. When Archer is accused of a series of gruesome
murders, he gives in to the beastly nature he has fought so
hard to hide from the world. But the curse that haunts him
cannot be denied. Now, to save his soul, Miranda will enter
a world of dark magic and darker intrigue. For only she can
see the man hiding behind the mask.
