As adults, Johnny and Red join an all-immigrant volunteer fire company that is despised by surrounding fire companies manned by American-born men.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With The Glass Kitchen, Linda Francis Lee has served up a novel that is about the courage it takes to follow your heart and be yourself. A true recipe for life. Portia Cuthcart never intended to leave Texas. Her dream was to run the Glass Kitchen restaurant her grandmother built decades ago. But after a string of betrayals and the loss of her legacy, Portia is determined to start a new life with her sisters in Manhattan . . . and never cook again. But when she moves into a dilapidated brownstone on the Upper West Side, she meets twelve-year-old Ariel and her widowed father Gabriel, a man with his hands full trying to raise two daughters on his own. Soon, a promise made to her sisters forces Portia back into a world of magical food and swirling emotions, where she must confront everything she has been running from. What seems so simple on the surface is anything but when long-held secrets are revealed, rivalries exposed, and the promise of new love stirs to life like chocolate mixing with cream. The Glass Kitchen is a delicious novel, a tempestuous story of a woman washed up on the shores of Manhattan who discovers that a kitchen—like an island—can be a refuge, if only she has the courage to give in to the pull of love, the power of forgiveness, and accept the complications of what it means to be family.

The former Atlanta homicide detective came to New York after a sickening murder case soured him on the South, but despite the glitz of his new surroundings and the beauty of the woman he shares them with, the city makes his skin crawl.

Book excerpt: After living in New York for twenty-four years, Shane Connolly receives an unexpected letter from his son Stephen McCabe, whom he'd never met. Stephen is worried about his half-brothers, Colin and Barry, who'd recently joined the Invincibles, a group of thugs and petty thieves in Dublin who're headed for serious trouble with the law. Because their father had died five months earlier and Stephen has nowhere else to turn for help, Shane embarks for his native land, hoping to help his son convince his half-brothers of the folly of their ways. On his voyage across the Atlantic in April 1882, Shane wonders how he'll get through to Colin and Barry because they have no reason to follow his advice. And what about their mother Fiona, the great love of Shane's life? Will she be warm and welcoming after so many years? Or will she harbor deep resentment toward him because he'd returned to Ireland too late in 1858 to keep her from marrying another man who'd promised to give her unborn child a good home? Only time will tell, and during Shane's return to his native land he sees no reason to feel hopeful.
