Product Description:
As white-hot flames sear the dark night, a killer waits in the trees, watching the mill burn, listening for the screams - the only proof that justice has finally begun for the sins of long-ago. For journalist Cassidy Buchanan, this inferno is a living nightmare - a reminder of the horrible, mysterious fire that destroyed her wealthy family seventeen years ago - and of Brig McKenzie, the handsome hell raiser accused of setting the blaze. That tragic crime has never been solved, and already the whispers have begun in Prosperity, Oregon - another fire, more deaths, and one common denominator - Cassidy herself. Cassidy came home to Prosperity to put the past behind her, but it seems the past isn't finished with Cassidy. Someone doesn't want her to uncover the chilling truth...someone who has killed before and will kill again...a cold-blooded psychopath who is only waiting to hear her...

This is the best book I've read in a long time, and I've read plenty. I found it difficult to put down. It has romance without a lot of fluff, action without a lot of gore, and mystery to keep you thinking. The main characters, Brig and Cassidy, were very likeable, yet believably flawed (I can't stand it when the main characters are perfect). Thank you, Lisa Jackson, for the entertaining book which I finished much too quickly.

Lisa Jackson does it again. She is one of the best authors on my list...in fact, she's at the very top. Out of all the books i've read by her, she hasn't let me down yet. Including this one which was a page turner. Way to go Lisa!!! U got my vote!

Wealthy tomboy Cassidy Buchanan fell hard at 16 for Brig McKenzie, a lothario from the wrong side of the tracks hired to break her unruly horse. Her older sister Angie would do anything to have sexy Brig in her bed, but it's Cass that Brig has eyes for. When Angie and one of her suitors is killed in a fire, Brig flees the ranch, convinced he'll be the primary suspect (whch turns out to be correct, as no other suspect is considered or investigated). Fast forward 17 years, and another suspicious fire has occurred on the property. Cass in now married to Brig's older brother Chase, who has always been driven to surpass his humble roots and the marriage is on the rocks. When she learns that Chase and an unidentified man were injured in the fire, she races to Chase's side, offering to help nurse him to health. She suspects that the other victim, who soon succumbs to his injuries (with the help of the arsonist responsible for both fires) is Brig, and mourns the loss of her true love while nursing his brother back to health, and suddenly feeling an intense connection to her once estranged husband.
"Final Scream" is a repackaged and expanded version of the previously released novel "Intimacies" which was penned by Jackson back in 1995. Half of the book is spent in 1977, building the relationship of Brig and Cassidy, as well as setting the stage for what a nasty family Cassidy came from. Love, lies, deception, infidelity, and incest rule in this story, with a haiku pulled at the end to identify the arsonist. It's a long book (coming it at nearly 600 pages), but pretty engrossing once you get involved in the story; it could have been trimmed at least 150 pages and still maintained the romance and suspense. I would have preferred that Jackson tighten rather than expand the story. But despite its length, it's an intriguing and fast moving story.

Final Scream is the fourth book that I have read by Lisa Jackson. I like to read her books because I know that it will have alot of suspense and mystery.
The story is mainly about the Buchanan Family and Brig McKenzie. Cassidy Buchanan is a rich girl from a 'normal' family, and Brig is the poor boy from a trailer. He is older than Cassidy, but there is an attraction between them.
I did find that the book was too long, and I thought that there was alot of pages taken up in laying the history of the story for the characters. Some things were hard to believe, while others were just plain sick.
Things I question: If Cassidy wasn't in love with Brig's brother, why did she marry him? Why was someone always getting pregnant, drunk, or living a double life?
Things I had a problem with: I didn't like the character of Cassidy that much. Despite her weird family, I lost alot of sympathy that I had for her when it seemed that she was using Brig's brother. This is the second book that I have read by Lisa that has the 'mystical crazy person'-Brig's mother, as a Native American. Since this is the second book that I have read of hers where this is the case I was a little offended. Being part Native American might have something to do with it, but that's my opinion. Maybe in the subsequent book, the crazy person will be of another ethnic group. My fingers are crossed!
I like most of Lisa's books, and I think she has a great talent for description and suspense. But this was not one of her best books.
