He’ll seduce her slowly, rediscover every inch of her supple body as he reminds her why they originally fell in love. Only by resolving their past can they vanquish their enemies and secure a future together.Note to Readers: This book contains detailed descriptions of sizzling passion only suitable for mature readers.From Cyndi: Dro Tar and Evan’s story was originally the first half of Crossfire. But Dro Tar is one of my favorite characters and it felt wrong to limit her story to a novella. So I finally listened to the emails requesting that I expand her adventure. I more than doubled the length of her book and I hope everyone will find it more satisfying. Though Mystic Flame is a scifi romance, it focuses on the characters rather than futuristic technology. There are still some fun gadgets, and lots of paranormal abilities, but this is a steamy love story. Start with a wisecracking heroine and a handsome mystic too stubborn for his own good, then add a liberal dose of danger and a touch of mystery. Let it simmer in my imagination for way too long and what you end up with is Mystic Flame. Enjoy! less
