Phoenix — C.J. Pinard

As some phoenixes are reborn with fire, others rise from a different kind of ashes.Vampire Gabriel McLeod is the newest to be named lieutenant in the Nighthawks MC. Due to his ability to create and manipulate fire, and the fact that he had been reborn after many years of immortal sleep, he is referred to as Phoenix. While loyal to the club and proud of his position in there, he's still dealing with having been asleep for 150 years, cursed by a witch quickly after he was turned into a vampire against his will all those years ago.Having been a vampire for a while, love and commitment were words that never left his lips. When the Nighthawks take in newly-turned twins Jemini and Jerome, Phoenix finds himself inexplicably drawn to Jemini's striking beauty, with her black hair, caramel skin, and green eyes. However, when he learns her secret—what she was before her turning—he goes out of his way to purposely avoid her. But his fervent glances her way don't go unnoticed by Jemini, who herself has reasons to avoid men and relationships. Will he take the time to get to know the beautiful woman or will he continue to wallow in self-pity and deny himself what could be a deep connection he didn't know was possible?Phoenix is book 3 in the Nighthawks MC Series, and is for readers 18+.
