Independence Falls, Colorado. 1954. It was the start of a perfect summer--until the fog rolled in and changed everything. Now these heroes will explore their newfound abilities ... and each other. Dr. Henry Porter joined his grandfather's medical practice prepared to take over the family business. But ever since the fog sickened most of the town, his grandfather has been secretive and strange. When Henry finally gets a peek at his grandfather's research, he realizes why--the old man has been accumulating data that makes no sense. Something unusual is happening, but Henry is barred at every turn. His grandfather tells him to forget about it, but then a shy, beautiful girl comes to him, utterly terrified. Everything she touches goes up in flames, and Henry may be the only one who can help. Ruth Baker has spent her whole life trailing after her father, a fundamentalist preacher who sees demons everywhere. Most of the townspeople think his visions of hellspawn are crazy, until people start developing talents far beyond human abilities. Now Preacher Baker is gaining a following preaching about damnation and hellfire. All the while, Ruth has a flame inside her she can't control. She turns to the young, handsome doctor for help, only to find that being with him makes her feel even hotter. After tragedy strikes, Ruth and Henry must find a way to contain a firestorm of panic ... but can they resist the flames of their desire?
