ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date January 21, 2014

Making daggers out of raindrops is only the tip of the iceberg for Brooke Bonham. As one of four women who can control the elements, her ability to manipulate water packs a deluge of potential. Eager to learn more, she’s frustrated at the precautions she must take to avoid the wrong kind of attention on Earth.

Kai’s duties as a Lash demon have kept him busy on Earth for nearly two hundred years. Fighting? He was born to do it. Females? They’re drawn to him. And Earth? The perfect place for him to avoid supernatural bounty hunters.

Though the two of them mix like oil and water, Kai senses that beneath Brooke’s frosty exterior hides a vortex of simmering passion. He’s determined to thaw his ice princess.

Forced to work together in the immortal realm, they track a rogue Lash demon at the helm of a widespread kidnapping operation. All too soon, Kai’s dark past catches up to them. Time runs out as a second enemy, bent on revenge, vows to stop at nothing short of Brooke’s enslavement and Kai’s death. As they and their foes stalk each other in a demonic game of cat-and-mouse, will her evolving skills and their fledgling bond be enough to save them?

If I had to describe this book with one word, the word would be busy. This book had a lot going on with many fun and interesting elements. I mean what’s not to love about this book? You get a vast variety of creatures with their own unique abilities, exploration of the many places in the realm of Torth, amazing fights scenes, adventure that leaves you on the edge of your seat and scorching hot love scenes. This book was the total package grabbing my attention from the prologue where our hero, Kai, fights for his life against a Neshi in a ring as a gladiator slave and then he proceeds to escape days later. I remember being on the edge of my seat during the action while rooting for Kai.

What I enjoyed the most is the main couple; Kai and Brooke. Sorry to sound cliché but Kai and Brooke are a match made in heaven. Physically and emotionally, there was some real chemistry between them. It was a real treat watching the romance grow and build throughout the story; though it was amusing that they didn’t really like each other in the beginning. While I am all for love at first sight, I am very partial to love that builds and grows. While in action, the two are an awesome pair with Kai’s Lash Demon abilities and Brooke’s Solsti abilities with water. There’s nothing wrong when a man is protective of his girl, but I really liked Kai’s confidence in Brooke’s abilities and as he didn’t hinder her but encouraged her. You’ll love everything about Kai and Brooke.

The witch Rosa and her abilities are super fun. The pace of the book was spot on and perfect, the pace didn’t drag and didn’t feel too fast. I also appreciate the overkill on the sensory imagery the story provided. The only complaint about the book was I felt like this book was not a suitable stand alone book. There were many references to the previous book and I felt a little lost since I didn’t read the first book. Overall, I enjoyed this book immensely and I desire back tracking to read book #1.
