Alter your reality . . . with edgy, sexy paranormals from Catherine Spangler. Catherine's dark, exciting Sentinel series continues with book two, TOUCHED BY FIRE.

Since a brutal attack on her sister eleven years ago, Marla Reynolds has been emotionally frozen--but one man's passion could melt her defenses.

For the past eleven years, Marla has insulated herself from the world and avoided relationships with men. Then she meets Luke Paxton in a Houston bar and is upended by an intense attraction she doesn't understand. But Luke does--he must harness the electrifying energy between them to achieve his goals. He is a Sentinel, a member of an ancient superhuman race. His purpose on Earth is to track unimaginable evil, and he needs Marla--willing or not--to help him focus his psychic powers.

He'll do whatever it takes--even if he has to kidnap her. But as Luke draws Marla deeper into a supernatural world, he finds himself torn between protecting humanity--or yielding to the fire of her touch.
