In Crimson Phoenix, she set a sexy tale of Alora Bishop. A woman with dark secrets, she is forced into slavery and being set for sale on the intergalactic slave market. She is carried to a desert planet, not fit for survival. Only, Fate takes a different turn, as she is rescued by Garrett Firestorm―a Crimson Phoenix. Garret is an Immortal, and was born with a magical soul. It’s his task to send his fleet of freedom fighters about the galaxies to fight the forces of evil.
Crimson Phoenix has a riveting hero, dark and menacing villain, a super heroine and strong secondary characters. This author was able to bring alive the desert planet, make you feel the arid setting, the heat. But the real heat is between Garrett and Alora! I highly recommend read for someone wanting a fresh voice in paranormal romance.
