Daughter of the Flames by Nancy Holder


Her power awakens...

He's on his way. You had better be ready. Or he will kill you.

At first, the warnings in Isabella DeMarco's nightmares seem the likely result of the stresses in her life: the anniversary of her mother's tragic death, her anxiety over applying to the police force, or what her acceptance might do to her protective cop father. Then she begins to hear voices in her head when she's awake.

Slowly she realizes that she's not going crazy -- she's reading people's minds. And that's just the beginning. When the mysterious Jean-Marc enters her life, he introduces her to a dark world beyond anything she's ever imagined and powers she never knew she had. Now he will lead her to her destiny. . . or her ultimate destruction.

I loved this book! There's a smart, courageous heroine who's life is slowly turning upside down. There's action and ass-kicking. There's mystery and romance (with a surprising twist). There's paranormal abilities, magic. There's -- my favorite -- a delicious darkness that seems to envelope you as you read because you are so drawn into the story. Truly, I loved the world and the characters. And I wanted to seduce Jean-Marc. Hell, yeah. I wanted him bad. He's one of those characters who straddle the line of good and naughty in such a tempting and seductive way.

Pick up your copy! You won't be sorry.

Cool, thanks again Gena! I'm on a buying frenzy, so another book to add to my growing pile.

Darn it, Gena! You keep finding books for me to buy. Evil, evil woman. :)

Sounds awesome.

And I just love the bombshell covers!

This is all I needed. Another book to add to my huge pile. Thanx.:-)

Interesting. I might have to check it out next time I go to Borders. *g* I love the cover though...

This book sounds awesome! I've got it and it's going to be my reward for getting my current first draft done. :)

These Bombshells are da bomb!

>He's one of those characters who straddle the line of good and naughty in such a tempting and seductive way

Ooo. I love ambiguously evil heroes. Especially straddling ones. LOL

I'm not a huge Bombshell fan, but I'll definitely pick this one up. Nancy Holder has written a lot of Buffy stuff, too.

This was a great book and I hope that there is another one..I loved to read more about Isabella and Jean-Marc..yum yum
