Love love love.
Such a great story to show that fate has her hand in everything. Love and loss and understanding. Also a very well written tribute to the day the world stopped turning.

This one will have a Raging Inferno happening in your heart as well as your panties!!
Firefighter, Dad, man in love are all things that describe Jimmy Casale, but perhaps the best description in MAN!!
Destiny has a funny way of working and theirs was 17 years in the making!
You don't want to miss this one!!
Heartwarming, healing and heat!!!

RAGING INFERNO is a firefighter romance with a bit of angst and a slow burn. It stands alone and at 140 pages or so, it's more novella than full length but it is a complete story!
Jimmy Casale is a respected fireman, a divorced father with two teenaged girls. His first day on the job had him rescuing several people during 9/11. Melissa is a widow and mother to a seven year old son. Jimmy and Melissa will soon learn that there's only six degrees of separation between them but those six steps are huge. Can they overcome them to find a second chance?
Janine Infante Bosco surprised the hell outta me with this one! I've been a fan of Ms. Bosco's work for awhile and I'll admit that this story is a whole lot tamer than what I'm used to from her. But it doesn't matter because I still flippin' ADORED this book! The premise of this one just Tore. Me. Up. All of the Why's and What If's gave me goosebumps. Even if you don't believe in fate or kismet or whatever, this is one of those stories that makes you scratch your head and go hmmm...
I loved the relationship that Jimmy had with his youngest daughter. I loved that he was able to fess up to his mistakes and I loved that he was so willing to fight for Melissa. She was sweet and funny but my heart cracked for her and her sad circumstance so I'm glad that these two lonely individuals eventually found their way to each other.
Told from dual POVs with a happy ever after. I voluntarily read and reviewed this book.

The events of 9-11 will be forever firmly embedded in my mind. The horrors of that day still haunt me and I both love and hate reading stories that revolve around its theme. However, Raging Inferno was one to love because on that day, like so many first responders, Jimmy Casale became a hero. While he may be a fictional character, he encapsulated everything I believed in on that day - bravery, determination, fighting in the face of utter hopelessness, and the unity of people in the middle of such devastation.
What else is there really to say? Janine Infante Bosco's writing was as brilliant as ever. This story that she wove left me spellbound from beginning to end. I was caught up in the drama of Jimmy's life and was hoping he would get a truly happy ending. I wasn't Melissa's biggest fan, especially with her lash out against the true hero of this story, but she was who Jimmy wanted so I was rooting for them.
This is a story of love lost, love found, and the beauty of second chances. Jimmy was a firefighter with a heart of gold, he was a wonderful father, an honorable and trustworthy and amazing man, and he was the picture of what is good in this world.
