***********************
Sophie has enough
problems in her life without Spencer turning her blood to fire, without his
eyes freezing and burning her, without his hatred of her. Since his migration
into the house next to hers, Sophia Valdez isn’t sure whether she wants to toss
him under a bus or kiss that smirking mouth of his. But even as the temperature
rises around them; leaping flames of passion, want and desire. Everything
either has ever known will be shattered by the lurking shadow hounding their
every step, wanting revenge.
Spencer Rowth moves to the sleepy town of River Port with his mother and twelve year old sister Suzy, to escape a deceitful father, an unfaithful girlfriend and a life crumbling much too fast for him to grapple onto, only to be smacked upside the head by the last thing he wanted again. Sophie was everything he refused to want. Her temper, her wit, her laugh, her smile; the way her entire body goes up in flames under his hands are things he would rather slam a lid on and forget. Instead, he finds himself falling for the smart-mouth next door. But how long will he have before the evil chasing them catches up? How long before the very thing he never wanted becomes his only thread to sanity? And who is after them? What do they want and why do they want Spencer and Sophie dead?

Teaser:
“I hope that’s the last of our
unlucky streak.”
Sophie couldn't agree more, but
something in the air, a chill, coiled around her, sinking razor sharp talons
into her flesh. It trickled venom through her veins, paralyzing all hopes that
tomorrow would be better. Truthfully, how could it be when the person
responsible was still out there? What if they came back? What if they tried
again? What if they did it to someone else?
No. Sophie had no delusions
that it would be better tomorrow. She wasn't fooled by the temporary calm. Two
incidents simultaneously? Maybe the police didn't spot the link, but she wasn't so lucky nor could she rule out that possibility that Spencer was the center of
it all.

Airicka Phoenix is the
author of TOUCHING SMOKE (Touch Book #1), TOUCHING ETERNITY (Touch 1.5), TORRID, a short story as part of the Whispered
Beginnings: A Clever Fiction Anthology and WANTING & INTENTIONS, two stories as part
of the Midnight Surrender Anthology. When she's not hammering away at the
keyboard, she can be found banishing pirates or crawling through the attic
looking for lost treasure with her kids. She loves baking, gardening and
reading. She also likes to travel and take pictures of everything she comes
across. When asked, Airicka describes herself as a sarcastic basket case that
has an unhealthy addiction to chocolate, old movies and really bad jokes. She
loves to laugh, make friends and write. If she could have one wish granted, it
would be to spend one day as a fly-on-the-wall inside Stephen King's mind. If
she could have two wishes granted, she would ask for a castle dedicated
entirely to her overwhelming collection of books.
Another amazing author, releasing another amazing book with a smashing cover! I love Airicka's style of writing, it's always beautiful and I can't wait to get my hands on this book too.
