Torch
Phoenix Forsythe expects her family's move to quaint, friendly Rosewood to herald an era of calm in her life. But the town has a secret, and Phoenix soon learns she has one, too.
In Rosewood, Torches, or fire-starters, choose to live in harmony with their natural enemies, Floods, who can transform into water. For centuries, Torches and Floods destroyed one another, but in this small California town, they preserve a fragile peace.
That peace is shaken by a string of mysterious arsons. With her mother and older brother already dead, Phoenix is terrified of losing anyone else.
To stop the arsonist, Phoenix teams up with gorgeous Kai Seaver, whose special abilities make him a huge ally in a firefight—and a very dangerous boyfriend.

About the author

29 books81 followersWhen I'm not writing books with Sandy, I can usually be found on a film set, where life is anything but dull. I've hung off the side of Toronto's CN tower, faced down a Grizzly bear, danced with Gregory Hines, and shared a beer with Ireland's Lord Guinness.
In 2003, Panavision Canada recognized my camera skills with the coveted Woody Award. It's an honor. Really.
And to think I almost became a cop. Fortunately for the citizens of Toronto, I flunked the psychological profile. Then, there was my brief stint as a bank manager, but I don't want to dwell on that.
Better to dwell on the restaurant job where I met the man who became my husband. I was the bartender; he was the busboy. It's still a perfect match: I get to call the "shots" and he cleans up after me. More importantly, he cleans up after our schnauzer, whom we affectionately describe as a four-bagger (Note: Dog-owners, you know what I'm talking about here).
I am a tea granny and a home dècor magazine junkie. I play the piano, although I don't own one. I own two guitars, although I don't play them. I sing to my dog, wear fleece even in summer, and never miss an episode of Coronation Street.
I could go on, but my tea is cold. And let's face it, you probably stopped reading after I mentioned the Woody Award.

Almost made it to a 3 star, but the ending was just so abrupt it made the book drop in my esteem
