Now one of the most terrifying men the human race has to offer stands between her and Earth's survival.





Review 2 of 5 Stars:

I'm an avid reader and it took me forever to get through this book.  I originally picked it up because of the mention of controlling elemental powers and saving the planet. It sounded like a good idea, but I was turned off by the non-consensual sex in relation to the characters and how it was presented. I'm giving it two stars because it was pretty much technically correct from a writing standpoint, but I really lost interest in what had originally gained my interest about this book because of the way it was presented. It really seemed as if there were two very divergent story lines going and the two never did mesh together for me. There may be others who would enjoy this book, but let's just say it wasn't for me.
