The Firebrand by Susan Wiggs

Chicago, 1871
In the aftermath of a destructive blaze, romance begins to blossom…
Chicago is burning, and Lucy Hathaway is running for her life. As she rushes past a fine hotel engulfed in flames, a wrapped bundle tumbles from a window into her arms. Seconds later the building crumbles—and Lucy is astonished to discover the swaddled blanket contains a baby.
Five years later, Lucy walks into Rand Higgins’s bank and knows: the orphan she rescued that day actually belongs to this ruthless financier. Now, to keep the child she’s come to love, she’ll have to give up her hard-won freedom and become his wife. But giving Rand her heart? That, she could never have expected…
In this exciting conclusion to the Chicago Fire trilogy, #1 New York Times bestselling author Susan Wiggs weaves a story about a crumbling city and a burgeoning family—and how both are built up from the ashes.
