The last rising is book #1 in a new series written by Rachel Firasek.  It's a quick read, just over 100 pages.  But it sure does pack a punch!!It took me a little while to warm up to Ice. She is cold and more then a little stand off-ish.  Don't get me wrong.  She has a very good reason for keeping people at an arms length.  It wasn't too long before I began to feel a connection to with her and sympothize with her plight.  Ice is a Phoenix.  It is her job to save souls.  When she does this, she dies in place of the one she saves.  She eventually will come back to the world with another assignment, and the whole process starts again.I almost immediately loved Turner.  He is a strong, handsome Texan man (with a sexy alpha male side...YUM!!)  He is a single father who wants to find love for himself and a mother for his young son, Brodie.  Brodie is a sweet little boy who has his father's charm and quirky additude.Now, I don't want to give away too many details here.  I'll just say that the story will grab your attention right away!  It's a fast paced and fun read!  It has a few moments that will certainly pull at your heart strings.  It also has a few scenes (ahh-hemm) that are sure to steam up your mirror  *smirks*  This is definitely a read you won't want to miss!!
