Making daggers out of raindrops is only the tip of the iceberg for Brooke Bonham. As one of four women who can control the elements, her ability to manipulate water packs a deluge of potential. Eager to learn more, she’s frustrated at the precautions she must take to avoid the wrong kind of attention on Earth.
Kai's duties as a Lash demon have kept him busy on Earth for nearly two hundred years. Fighting? He was born to do it. Females? They're drawn to him. And Earth? The perfect place for him to avoid supernatural bounty hunters.
Though the two of them mix like oil and water, Kai senses that beneath Brooke’s frosty exterior hides a vortex of simmering passion. He’s determined to thaw his ice princess.
Forced to work together in the immortal realm, they track a rogue Lash demon at the helm of a widespread kidnapping operation. All too soon, Kai’s dark past catches up to them. Time runs out as a second enemy, bent on revenge, vows to stop at nothing short of Brooke’s enslavement and Kai’s death. As they and their foes stalk each other in a demonic game of cat-and-mouse, will her evolving skills and their fledgling bond be enough to save them?
Our 5 Star Review
Brooke's Story is the second in the Solsti Series. She is strong, tough, and she's not gonna let some smart-ass demon get the better of her. With her ability to control water growing she and Kai are set the simple task of collecting a plant to help fight a new threat in Chicago. But what was supposed to only be a few hours turns into a much bigger task where Brooke and Kai will have to work together in order to survive. If they can handle each other's tempers first that is.
Being that we were already introduced into the Solsti world in book one this story was able to dive straight in and allow you to see even more of what's going on without the preamble. I loved Brooke's fiery attitude and her love of learning new things. I enjoyed hearing Kai's story and how he came to be who he is today as well, he protective nature and willingness to do anything necessary to protect Brooke brought him up several notches in my awesomeness scale. And seeing the few other POV throughout helped you see the bigger picture and allows you to understand what's happening on a larger scale and what you will get to see more of in future books.
Loved the surprise revelations you only get a hint of in this one and can't wait to see what happens next.
Author Bio
Sharon Kay was bitten early by the writing bug. At age twelve she wrote a short story, about a magic ring, that won a statewide Young Authors contest. With her nose always in a book, she read the most novels for her age group in her local library’s summer reading program.
In her teens, writing took a back seat to fashion, as she was determined to find clothes different from what everyone else bought at the mall. And what she couldn’t find, she created. She learned to sew, worked in a fabric store after school, and spent her spare time with a needle in hand. Her black and orange prom dress is still one of her favorite creations.
Sharon lives in the Chicago area with her husband and son, and didn’t expect to write again. But Wicked Wind and the Solsti series formed in her head one weekend and refused to stay quiet until she put pen to paper. Her characters tend to keep her up at night, as they banter, fall in love, and slay endless varieties of power-hungry demons.
