- R. Phoenix (code name: Raissa) has an unhealthy fascination with contrasts: light and dark, humor and pain, heroes and villains, order and chaos. She believes love can corrupt, power can redeem and that the best of intentions can cast shadows while the worst can create light. She agrees with those who say that the truth is best told through fiction -- even though fiction has to make sense while reality can be utterly baffling.
Her dark paranormal books explore a world where humanity has become prey, subjugated by "supes" -- vampires, werewolves, and witches -- who have seized control. They range from romance to dark erotica to horror and everything in between, exploring different aspects of the Fate of the Fallen universe. She's even published something she calls "playful dark erotica."
Her tendency to explore dark topics isn't limited to a supernatural world. Her contemporary romance, Too Close, deals with the difficult topic of domestic violence. She is passionate about the need for greater awareness and understanding of an issue that's often misunderstood.
She loves chatting with readers, though she often awkwardly rambles. No matter how much she tries to keep her bad and often perverted sense of humor in check, it seems to escape at the most inconvenient moments. (Thanks, universe.) Feel free to friend Raissa on Facebook and chat or send her an email!

I enjoyed this book, but it is a hard read. Both Fox and Christiano have gone through a lot of childhood trauma. Christiano has had a chance in a way to address his trauma. Fox has not. He is an emotional mine field for Christiano, but Christiano does not give up on him. Both slowly, very slowly, open up. I liked that. I also liked the alternate chapters where each was the narrator telling the story.
There is more violence in this book than I am used to. It is not gratuitous, but I was shocked by it although it did not affect my enjoyment of the book. I have to admit I was glad some of it happened as it probably helped Fox move forward. Christiano learns to move slowly at times. He is learning when to push and when to slow down. Fox may not be happy with him at times but they both need what is happening within their relationship. Both need to learn to trust and that actions speak louder than words.
After a short hiatus, I will probably be ready for more of this series.… (meer)
