She’s loved him forever but will he overcome his guilt for loving her…
Lieutenant Tess DeMarco has struggled through prejudice against women, a messy divorce and years of training to get what she wants out of life. And the Sisters of Fire have stood by her throughout it all. Another constant in her life is her mentor and friend, David Ashford. She loves him deeply, but keeps her feelings secret, even from herself.
Captain David Ashford, the head of the arson squad, is acutely wounded by the loss of his wife. Tess suffers with him through her long illness, her death and the immediate aftermath. At the same time, he suffers intense guilt over wanting Tess.
Devoted to their arson investigator jobs, they work current cases and tension builds between them. Then an arsonist goes after them. David’s always taken care of her but now he’s obsessive about her safety.
Amidst this danger, can they stop the arsonist before he harms them? And can David accept a relationship with Tess, or will he stand by and watch her find someone else to love?

Reviews
At Last is a Must Read!
5By GrinandstampitI am loving the Sisters of Fire series. Tess DiMarco is an arson investigator and is featured in At Last-book 2. This book was so easy to read but packed with info and both a love story for Tess and an arson investigation. Both are full of surprise twists and turns. Kathryn Shay is in her element with this cast of characters as their stories advance through each book. A must read as this author always leaves me wanting more.At Last
5By Ellen/OceansideA story that pulls you in from the beginning. The arson team working together on a case. There lives are shown to us, the highs and the lows. We meet the Sisters of Fire a group that supports one another and shares theirs lives. In this story of David and Tess, friends and being there for one another over the years. A time of new beginnings, for several in this group. Love the story line and the women in it. Well done. Given ARC. for my voluntary review and my honest opinionGreat Book
5By 37KarenAt Last, the 2nd book in the Sisters of Fire series is just as good as the first one. Arson inspectors Tess and David work together and have been friends for years. David is working through his grief after recently losing his wife to cancer and struggling with guilt over his feelings for Tess. Tess is raising her 2 daughters after her divorce, her son lives with her ex, and she has feelings for David. As they work together trying to catch a serial arsonist who is taunting them, their feeling grow. The other Sisters of Fire make appearances in the story so you can keep up with what is going on in their lives. Kathryn Shay writes great books with a lot of depth. I can’t wait for the 3rd book in this series.
