Sophie has enough
problems in her life without Spencer turning her blood to fire, without
his eyes freezing and burning her, without his hatred of her. Since his
migration into the house
next to hers, Sophia Valdez isn’t sure whether she wants to toss him under a bus or kiss that smirking mouth of his. But even as the temperature rises around them, leaping flames of passion, want and desire,everything either has ever known will be shattered by the lurking shadow hounding their every step, wanting revenge.
Spencer Rowth moves to the sleepy town of River Port with his mother and twelve year old sister, Suzy, to escape a deceitful father, an unfaithful girlfriend and a life crumbling much too fast for him to grapple onto only to be smacked upside the head by the last thing he wanted again. Sophie was everything he refused to want. Her temper, her wit, her laugh, her smile, the way her entire body goes up in flames under his hands are things he would rather slam a lid on and forget. Instead, he finds himself falling for the smart-mouth next door. But how long will he have before the evil chasing them catches up? How long before the very thing he never wanted becomes his only thread to sanity? And who is after them? What do they want and why do they want Spencer and Sophie dead?

I'm sitting here thinking of
how I can review this book and give it the justice it deserves. I
don't want to give any spoilers, so it's gonna be so hard for me to
reign myself in on this one, lol.
This book was by far Airicka's best book. From the first few paragraphs, I was catapulted into this book...into this world she was describing. Man, does she have a way with words. I've never traveled to British Columbia, I'm not even sure I've seen it in pics, movies, on TV, etc....and yet I could picture it, as if I was there. And that's not even the best part.
Sophie is a regular girl, well regular if you can go by the fact of she's not the most popular girl, but she's not the lowest on the totem pole...she's pretty and she's got her friends. She does well in school, she's happy...she's got everything going for her. And then she meets Spencer. He's a complete jerk...and that's being a nice way to describe him. He moves in next door and he's breathtakingly gorgeous. He's all she can think of, he consumes her. Yet every time she runs into him, he treats her as if she has the plague...except when he's not, lol. And let me tell you, I loved when he wasn't treating her badly, you think Sophie's heart was racing? I was telling one of my friends that it was horrible that I was lusting after a high school boy. That it was bad he was making my heart race and my breath catch just like Sophie's (thanks for laughing at me, Sue, you'll get your own taste of Spencer soon, lol), but when Airicka describes a "man", you just can't help yourself.
Anyway, then someone starts threatening Sophie and bad things start happening and Spencer is always there. Oh man, I'm gonna give too much away! Just go out and get this book and read it. I'm gonna promise you that you won't be able to put it down until you're done reading it...it's just THAT good!
