description: The Adventures of Star Lite
  After a humiliating and frightening experience, Star has no desire to meet men-let alone team up with one-but Fate has other ideas. Trapped on a strange world, she meets Adam, who is being held against his will. When danger threatens, she discovers she has the gift of magic and is able to love again. The two return to Earth and Star learns to use and control her power with help from an enigmatic teacher.
  Sensing Adam's life is in peril, Star tries to help, only to find herself involved with a shady man from his past, though Adam wants to keep her out of the danger that haunts his life. While attempting a rescue mission, she discovers an unusual ability, one that the Vigilar find most interesting.
  Star Lite and Adam embark on adventures that take them to a far-away planet with a mad king and sensuous pixies and to shape shifters in Las Vegas. As they come to know each other, Star and Adam realise they share desires and dreams and learn to trust, work together and follow their hearts.
  Awaken the Fire by Naomi Bellina
  Book Three in the The Adventures of Star Lite series.
  To stop an evil force she must learn to unleash her fire while dealing with a shape-shifter, dangerous men and a mercurial, magical lover.
  Along with rewards, magic breeds danger. Star, Adam and Tristan submit to study with the secret authoritarian group, the Vigilar, in preparation to reveal the existence of magical beings to the world. But will this knowledge be used for good or evil?
  Doubts creep in when Star is assigned to work with Lucas—a man from Adam’s past—a man known to have dangerous ideas. Bigger problems arise during a sensual ménage when they discover a shape-changer dragon in their midst. Lucas claims the Vigilar plan to use shifters, especially powerful beings like dragons, for malevolent purposes, which puts Star and her special abilities in danger. Adam must devise a strategy to thwart the Vigilar and learn more about this controlling entity. While implementing their plans, Star struggles with the fear of unleashing—and learning to control—all the powers within her.
  She struggles, too, with her feelings for Adam. Should she fight against her deepening love for a man who could desire power more than he loves her? The combustion of a potent sexual ritual forces Adam to face the question of their love and for Star to awaken the fire within.
