BURN FOR ME is Book 1 in this author's Phoenix Fire
series. This story has vampires, shifters, an evil mad
scientist, and lots of fast-paced action. I loved this
book!
The mysterious and super sexy Cain (also known
as "Subject Thirteen") first meets reporter Eve Bradley at
the Genesis facility. The official story is that the
facility is a place where paranormal creatures volunteer to
participate in experiments benefiting the U.S. government.
Eve is there investigating while posing as a scientist in
order to see if Genesis and Dr. Richard Wyatt are
everything they claim to be. Eve very quickly comes to
realize what every sci-fi movie fan already knows -- that
shadowy scientist/government combos performing secret
experiments are invariably a bad thing. Eve and Cain have
an instant, electric connection. It's revealed early on
what kind of creature Cain is. It's not immediately
apparent what makes Eve "not quite human".
I thought her
being able to withstand Cain's fire was a wonderful way to
have them bond and it made their connection somewhat
unique. I love that even though Cain is so strong, deadly,
and a powerful force to be reckoned with, he never hurts
Eve either physically or verbally. He never directs his
anger at her.
Eve has a big heart and doesn't like to give
up on anybody, but I like that she's not naïve or stupid.
Her escape from the bad guys with Cain, and their quest to
stop their evil operation is very exciting and filled with
a lot of very sexy scenes.
They both have trust issues to
overcome but I felt that they made a fabulous twosome. I
found it very powerful that each time he died and his
phoenix was reborn, even if he didn't remember who he was,
he remembered Eve and who she was to him. I was also very
intrigued by several of the supporting characters along the
way -- the shifter Trace, the vampire Ryder, and the female
phoenix that Ryder is obsessed with.
I cannot wait to read
their stories. Trace's storyline broke my heart, and I hope
things work out for him in the end. I eagerly await the
next book in this series.
**HOT ENOUGH TO BURN is a re-release. It was originally published in 2014 as BURN FOR ME.**
Prepare to burn up the pages in this hot paranormal romance by New York Times and USA Today best-selling author Cynthia Eden.
Do you believe in monsters? You should, they walk among humans every single day. Reporter Eve Bradley has known the truth about paranormals for a while, and her latest story has taken her inside the mysterious Genesis facility. It’s at Genesis that Eve first meets Subject Thirteen, Cain O’Connor. Big, gorgeous, and truly, truly HOT.
Cain is a phoenix shifter. Every time that he dies, he rises from the ashes…stronger, deadlier, and another step closer to losing his control. And what happens when a phoenix loses control? Welcome to hell on Earth.
Cain feels an instant connection with Eve, a woman who swears she wants to help him. The attraction between them burns hotter than his flames, and soon, Eve is the only link to sanity that Cain has as the world turns to fire around him.
Eve isn’t human, despite the cover she’s used for years, and she is more than capable of withstanding a little heat. But as their enemies plot to trap them, Eve and Cain will be forced to trust each other completely. Be forced to surrender to a desire that cannot be controlled, and soon, if they are not careful, it’s a desire that might just have the power to destroy them both.
If you want something too badly, if you want someone too much…you will never even see the fire coming, not until it’s too late. Be careful. You don’t want to get burned…
Author’s Note: Welcome to the world of my phoenixes! HOT ENOUGH TO BURN is a romance steamy enough to singe your fingers, but what else should you expect from a fierce shifter hero? HOT ENOUGH TO BURN was originally published by Kensington back in 2014, and back then, it had the title of BURN FOR ME. I’m super excited to bring this tale to readers once again! It’s a full-length story (90k), with a guaranteed happy ending.
