Terri Brisbin has started a new series which returns her
to the paranormal romance field.
Brienne is the adopted daughter of the blacksmith of
Yester. She has a special power which she keeps hidden.
When she is moved to the her father's castle, and taught
to harness her power to manipulate fire, she exults in
what she can do.
William de Brus is the illegitimate son of the King of
Scotland. He seeks his father's help in retaining his
lands. In return, the King asks that he seek out someone
who is a danger to his rule. Seeking to earn his
request, he heads west into Scotland to investigate the
nobleman who is causing trouble.
With powers of his own, Will will be tempted by the
beauty of Brienne. Even knowing of her powers doesn't
suppress the strong attraction between the two. When
Will meets up with a small band of people who talk of the
old gods.
As Brienne learns to use her powers, her father seeks to
separate her from Will, knowing that he might ruin their
plans to free the Goddess and take control of the world.
RISING FIRE is the first in a new series based on the
stone circles found in Scotland. Ms. Brisbin has moved
deeper into the fantasy world. The romance element is
strong and Ms. Brisbin has combined the two elements
well.
The prologue takes the reader back to times long past and
a pantheon of Gods who fight against one of their own.
They succeed in sealing her away for generations until
the stories are almost forgotten. Moving forward to the
13th century, we meet Brienne and Will. Will and his men
will have to accept the possibility of powers beyond
their ken.
Ms. Brisbin writes an intriguing story filled with
romantic tension. As the reader plunges into the story,
she will cheer as Brienne and Will fight against the fate
her father plans. Engrossing reading, RISING FIRE is
just the first taste of what promises to be a trilogy you
won't want to miss.
What if the standing stones and stone circles across
the old Celtic world had
a secret origin and use?
What if some opened into another world?
What if the goddess of fire was trapped beneath one?
Lovely and innocent Brienne of Yester has always been
able
to manipulate fire, but
when her powers suddenly surge, the simple life she once
knew explodes.
Handsome, fearless, and commanding William de Brus has
been summoned by the king to
investigate a nobleman rumored to have powers linked to
the fabled fire goddess.
When he chances upon Brienne, his desire for her is
immediate. But as his mystical
quest unfolds, William realizes that she is at the center
of it—for Brienne
possesses the very power he has been sent to vanquish....
As their attraction deepens, William attempts to free
Brienne from the dark force
beginning to control her—even when his duty demands that
he treat her as an enemy.
With emotions flaring, fire rising, and evil threatening
at every turn, can the two
lovers survive the coming battle and save all of
humanity?
