Rising is book 4 in The Blue Phoenix Series and it is in stores in December 2014.
Synopsis:
"Our demons don't want to play but they
sure as hell recognise each other"
Three attempts at staying clean after rehab and
Jem Jones, Blue Phoenix guitarist, is determined this time he’ll succeed.
Haunted by his recent past, Jem throws himself into the one addiction he still
has left: music. With Blue Phoenix on a break, he looks elsewhere for a place
to channel his creativity and discovers up-and-coming band Ruby Riot.
For lead singer, Ruby, breaking into the music
scene could break the cycle of abuse that’s controlled her life since she was a
child. Finding release through music, the growing success of the band has
set Ruby on the path to regaining her identity and self-esteem.
Ruby Riot brings Jem and Ruby together, but
Ruby's tangled personal life pushes her closer to a reluctant Jem. Living and
touring together, Jem and Ruby discover they have more in common than their
passion for music. Can this understanding break down the carefully constructed
barriers they’re trapped behind? Or is loving somebody too big a risk to take?
When Jem’s past slams into his present, he has
to face the reality behind what made him the man he is and why he hurts the
people he wants to love.
And as Ruby reaches out to help Jem, she
discovers trying to fix somebody comes with the risk of getting cut by one of
their shattered pieces.
Jem and Ruby’s story is the fourth book in the
Blue Phoenix series. It can be read as a standalone but contains minor spoilers
for the other books in the series.
