After being mysteriously killed by a hitman, Shawn Comerford is reborn in fire—only to learn he’s not just alive. He's become something mythic. A phoenix person, charged with protecting the world from monsters.
Now, with a strange fire pulsing beneath his skin, Shawn's given a mission he doesn’t understand—one that leads him to Brenda Rodriguez. The one girl fate says he can never have. She’s beautiful, brilliant… and cursed. Romantic love is fatal for her. Her family’s bloodline ensures it. Anyone who falls for her is marked for destruction. And yet—Shawn can’t stay away.
Even though ancient demons are involved and a centuries-old curse haunts them.
He doesn't care. He wants her. And will do anything—including burning every demon in hell—to have her.
But while trying to break the curse, he's plunged into an impossible mission—too impossible even for someone who's got a phoenix heart and fire.
