by Anna WindsorThe Dark Crescent Sisterhood #6 As Sybils--protector warrior "witches"--they control the Elements...But passion is a force that no one can contain. Being the only fully trained water Sybil is a big responsibility, which leaves Andy Myles too busy defending New York from flesh-eating Rakshasha demons and dealing with a personal tragedy to even think about entrusting her broken heart to the wrong man. So the last thing she needs is the FBI's overbearing adviser for Manhattan Occult Crimes Unit, Jack Blackmore whose Army-tough attitude and critical ways are working her last nerve. Honestly, she she could just drown him in a tidal wave of her water energy--except for the one small fact that she can't stop thinking about kissing him. A lot. What is it about hating a man that makes him so hot? Jack's 100% percent human and 200% tough. He's never come across a problem he couldn't solve bullets, steel and his own two hands. But now he finds himself fighting beside warrior witches who can kill with just a snap of their fingers and he seems powerless to defend his heart against a wild woman with kisses that taste like sweet southern rain. But as a wave of evil takes hold over the city, Jack has only one opportunity to put an end to the all of the violence--and win Andy's love.
