Stryker Wills is dedicated to hunting down Phoebe Milan, a vile assassin who uses pyrokinetic abilities to kill, just like she killed his partner and friend. However, Phoebe shares her body with her sister, Melanie, and ice-wielding Melanie wants nothing more than for Phoebe to be stopped. Stryker's organization, ACRO, think that Pheobe and Melanie are the same person, parts of some sort of multiple personality disorder, but the truth is much stranger than that. Stryker has to decide whether or not to trust Melanie, to talk to ACRO officials about the intimate details of how Phoebe/Melanie recharge their powers, and how much credence to put in a long-gone friend's prophecy.

Fascinating storyline, sizzling scenes, and excellent character development make TAKEN BY FIRE an amazing book. Readers will be eager for more from Sydney Croft.

Book Summary

HIS MISSION WAS TO DESTROY HER. BUT DESIRE GOT IN THE WAY.

A product of genetic manipulation, Melanie Milan shares a body with her malevolent sister, Phoebe. A sleek, blond predator with a heart of pure darkness, Phoebe puts their body through the wicked underbelly of sex for thrills-when she's not igniting her pyrokinetic skills for an evil organization bent on taking over the world. Melanie rarely gets out to play-much less fall in love. But that changes when rival ACRO agent Stryker Wills shows up, with a mission to terminate the woman who torched his partner. An operative with rare abilities, Stryker soon realizes that the woman he's about to kill isn't the murderous fire starter he's been hunting. But he does want her. Melanie, with the power to ice anything in her path, is heating things up in ways that are setting fire to his blood. As long as Melanie stays in control, she is his best ally to bring down her sister and stop hellish havoc from being unleashed. Walking a tightrope of longing and hate, Stryker and Melanie begin to understand that true power lies in sweet surrender to each other, to the flames between them, to the erotic adventure that's joined their hearts and abilities to become their salvation-and perhaps the world's.
