Security agent, Michael Forest, has given up his dreams of a wife and family. When he's assigned to protect Summer Morgana Starr, he's stunned by his attraction to her, an attraction he fights.

Summer, born with the ability to restore fiery lines of power deep in the earth's crust, risks her life each time she heals those lines. For her own safety, she should bond with a man of paranormal powers, but her heart has chosen Michael, a man without any psychic talents.

When a ruthless enemy from Michael's past puts Summer in jeopardy, Michael sacrifices himself to save her life and her sweet touch of fire.

What The Reviewers Are Saying...

5 Stars
"5 Stars! Barbara Clark has done a masterful job in this continuing story of the Starr sisters. Her blend of the paranormal with tender, romantic overtones is superb. The heroine is strong with abilities beyond the norm and the hero is rich, powerful, works as a shadow agent in covert activities and is her bodyguard. Add to that combination a rich mixture of sexual tension between the two, the hero dealing with his own demons, and a stalker, you've got a complex plot that is easily followed and makes you tingle to boot!"—Lani Roberts, Affaire de Coeur

“A Touch of Fire is absolutely fabulous! This story is filled with suspense and passion with a twist of paranormal that makes for excellent reading. The reader's heart will break for Michael and all the pain he has suffered. The only things he longs for; home, love and family, he denies himself. Summer is head strong and courageous. She will not let her life be run for her, but she knows when to bend. Barbara Clark brings back other beloved characters, which makes the story even better. Readers get the chance to catch up with secondary characters while becoming engrossed in new ones. Barbara Clark creates a masterpiece in A Touch of Fire; I could not put this book down! 5 Angels!” Reviewed by: Jaymi fallenangelreviews.com/March2004Reviews/Jaymi-TouchofFire.html

Summer Morgana Starr has the rare gift of soothing the ley lines that lay deep in the earth's magnetic core. She is able to stop earthquakes and send peacefulness to the earth. She is proud of her gifts and accepts them, but they leave her little room for a normal life. Her parents and siblings were also blessed with rare gifts, and instilled in her the importance of marrying a man with physic abilities. Not only would this mean passing them on to future generations but it would keep her gifts strong as well.

A force stronger than either Michael or Summer can control is taking over--the force of love. Each try to resist but the pull is too strong. They realize just how strong their feelings are as together they face danger, dodge enemies and put their lives on the line for one another.

A TOUCH OF FIRE is book three in the exceptional Sons of Earth and Wind series. A strong storyline, well thought out characters and a scenic backdrop combine to create a page turner. Barbara Clark has given her fans another sensational story. -- Tami Sutton www.escapetoromance.com/reviews/clark-touch.html

"...The sexual tension between Michael and Summer will keep you simmering and the suspense is very intense as not only the man who wants to kill Summer gets closer, but Michael has some deadly enemies as well. Trying to guard Summer is one tough job. I'm exhausted, but happily so. The characters are great and the setting on the California coast is perfect for this gripping story of love and danger. I found myself racing through this book like a lightning rod since I was simply spellbound by this story. Barbara Clark has a wonderful voice for creating marvelous paranormal stories that leave you breathless. Terrific characters in suspenseful plots filled with danger and sensuality."—Suzanne Coleburn, The Belles and Beaux of Romance

"A Touch of Fire by Barbara Clark, the third in a series, itself stands alone as a great novel. Having not read the two previous works by Ms. Clark, I can honestly say I have definitely been drawn into her world, very effectively I might add. This was a wonderful addition to the emerging paranormal ebook genre."—Katherine L. Schlem

"Author Barbara Clark again draws on her strength of developing well-written and fleshed-out characters to portray this couple in her series of books revolving around the handsome, tough, yet vulnerable men she has created for this series. An exciting plot line, a touch of the paranormal, vicious bad guys and a woman in distress comes across in an entirely different light under the talented strokes of Ms. Clark's pen, making this series a must read for any romance lover."—Denise M. Clark, Denise's Pieces Book Reviews

"3 1/2 Stars!...
Reading A Touch of Fire by Barbara Clark sparked my interest eagerly. Here you have a woman who has special powers, like superwoman, just trying to save people. She fights evil plots, stops earthquakes and falls in love with a man. Knowing that he is her other half, she risks all her powers and gives her heart to him, not knowing if that love will be returned. To this reviewer Michael sounds like a complex man. He is haunted by the past, yet he is afraid to see the future or live the present like he is supposed to. With Summer's help, he can do anything as long as she is his other half. There's magic, murder, and most of all, a love that can last a lifetime for each other."—Melinda, Love Romances

"5 Stars!...
With a hero to touch any woman's heart, a heroine at once fragile and strong, and villains to chill the soul, Barbara Clark has created a wonderful paranormal romantic suspense. I give this book a full 5 stars, and am sure that other readers, like me, will be panting for more."—Judy Gill, Scribes World
