FIRE AND RAIN by Diane Chamberlain

An interesting book centered around the fires in California.  You have a very small town named Valle Rosa, in the midst of a severe drought and fires in and around them.  Their mayor a hometown man who once was a pitcher in the major leagues, Chris Garrett.  His ex wife Carmen Lopez who is a television reporter.  Chris' secretary, Mia and the stranger Jeff.  Jeff tells Chris he can make it rain.  Is that possible?  Will Carmen exploit Jeff to win back her spot at the network?  Oh, and then there is little Dustin-Chris and Carmen's son.
This book was a little slow going for me.
