Product Description When Cynda gets hot and bothered, things start to sizzle.
Gorgeous flame-haired Cynda Flynn knows fire–its heat, its power, its magic. A fully trained Sybil warrior priestess, Cynda’s weapon is flame. But she’s unprepared for the passion ignited by Nick Lowell, an undercover cop in the NYPD’s Occult Crime Unit. He’s half human, half demon, and hotter than hell, with fathomless black eyes that ignite something buried deep inside Cynda, making her melt in all the right places.
Luckily, Nick has found a way to control his dark side, but he’s done it old-school–through steel-willed self-control. And after five years working secretly within the deadly Legion cult, he’s unbreakable. Or he was, until Cynda came along. Now it’s personal–and even his big bad love may not be enough to halt a terrible new evil snuffing out fire Sybils like Cynda. It’s nasty. And if it can’t be stopped, they’re all going to fry.

Excellent November 19, 2008 The whole series was very good, wold like to find more books by this author
No connection with characters October 10, 2008 This is the first book I read in this series and could not connect with Cynda or Nick or anyone. I have started in the middle of other series before, but this book did not help the reader to fall in love with the characters. I also don't understand Cynda's powers. Fire has very specific behaviors and as powerful as Cynda's supposed to be, she never has control. I put the book down in the middle and am now returning it.
Hot for the Demon. October 9, 2008 While not as good as the first, this was still a great book. This showed another facet of the triad the makes up the team of women. While Riana in the first book was the mortar that provides stability for her team, Cynda it the complete opposite. Cynda a fire Sybil who is as fierce, as her fire is hot. She is a volatile mix of loyalty to the code of the sisterhood and her emerging feelings for Nick Lowell. Nick had previously been uncover in a Legion household trying to find out their plans. Nick, who happens to be Creed's twin brother is also more than he seems.
It seems the Lowell brothers can't help falling for this women. The chemistry between these two is so hot. Their clothes are in peril of melting off every time they come together. In this book, the author gives us more information on the Legion and their plans for the world and for the Sisterhood. In addition, you get to find out more about Jake and what has been going on with him since his appearance in book one
not so hot August 26, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I have never reviewed a book before but I read constantly and am always looking for new authors. I picked this up and thought I,d give it a chance and I'm really sorry I did. I hate to give a bad review, but actually started to fall asleep reading this book and that never happens to me!! I didn't red the first book in the series and from the reviews I've read the first book is pretty good but I have to say that this book isn't worth the time or the money. I couldn't even finish it which I always try to do no matter how bad the book. All that I learned in the 3 chapters that I was able to complete is that Cynda is a Sybil warrior who can't even control her own powers...LAME!! I'm supposed to believe that she's supposed to defeat all manner of bad guys? She can't even hold on to her sword. So, I'm sorry but this story didn't do it for me. I'd much rather be reding something else even more exciting. Maybe my voters pamphlet.
Not as strong as the first, but still good. August 13, 2008 This is the second book in a new trilogy The Dark Crescent Sisterhood. This story features Cynda, one of three Sybils. Her element is fire. She literally smokes. Her love interest is Nick Lowell, NYPD detective and half human, and half curson. Someone is killing fire Sybils all over the world. Cynda and Nick must find out who and why the fire Sybils are being destroyed. Overall, I enjoyed the book. There was plenty of action and interesting characters. I had to wade through the love scenes because I really didn't feel them as a couple. The flaws I found were mainly with Cynda's character. I didn't get a real feeling with her like I had with Riana in Bound by Shadow. Nick's character was also a little lacking. But the books action and story line of Nick's brother Jake, whom you don't know if he's a good guy or bad guy, made it worth the read. It all came through in the end with a bang! Overall, not as strong as the first but still very good.
