BEYOND THE FIRE--NEW COVER AND GIVEAWAY! by Cheryl Pierson


When Kendi Morgan witnesses an attempted murder near her home one stormy November night, she makes the only choice her heart will allow: she has to help the victim. But bringing the handsome stranger into her home traps her in the middle of a deadly drug war.

Wounded DEA agent Jackson Taylor is a man with nothing to lose and nothing to fear—until he falls for the beautiful woman who risks everything to save his life.

With his cover blown, Jackson knows he’s all that stands between Kendi and Benito Sanchez, a powerful drug cartel lord. Sanchez swears his vengeance, vowing to see Jackson and Kendi both dead.

Love comes fast when there may be only hours left…can it survive? Or will Jackson sacrifice his partner’s life—along with his own—in exchange for Kendi’s safety? Does a future exist for them BEYOND THE FIRE…

I'm relaunching my Fire Star Press story, BEYOND THE FIRE, with a brand new cover, and I want to give away a digital copy of this wonderful story to celebrate!

This is a story that was pretty "gritty" to write and make it realistic, but I think you'll be surprised with some of the twists and turns it takes! In BEYOND THE FIRE, Kendi Morgan has been horribly hurt by her ex-husband, but she never lets go of her dreams. She's my kind of girl! She's been knocked down, but she gets up and keeps on moving forward in life. When a wounded DEA agent, Jackson Taylor, shows up on her property, she's not sure if he's a "good guy" or not, but she takes a chance--a big one!

What's the biggest chance you've ever taken in your life? Be sure to comment to be entered for the drawing for a digital copy of BEYOND THE FIRE!

  10. Thanks, Ann! Right—-I wouldn’t think twice if I was Kendi, but she saw him getting “killed” by the bad guys so wasn’t really sure if she should get involved. Lol!

  11. As you probably remember, I loved this contemporary story. I'm glad it's back for a new legion of readers.

    As for the biggest chance I ever took, deciding to tell stories in written form. I've not regretted or looked back after stepping over the line.

    All the best on this re-release. Doris

  12. Thanks, Doris. This is a fave of mine, too, and I really do love this cover and am so happy to relaunch it. Here’s hoping for good things! Yes, I’d say that was probably the biggest chance I ever took, too. Writing is really putting yourself “out there”, and it can be brutal!

  13. wow, what a hot hero....actually all your covers have hot guys (Fire Eyes, The Devil and Miss Julia Jackson, same model. I've only read the excerpt, but his dangerous line of work is definitely in keeping with this hero. As for the greatest risk I've taken was following my heart and marrying my fiance over the objections of my immediate family). My heart has never failed me with that leap of faith. I guess that's why I love writing romances....I'm living it. Wishing you loads of success with this re-launch, Cheryl.

    1. Hi Elizabeth! Yes, I did that same thing with my husband. Over much objection from my family, I followed my heart and we have been together over 40 years now. Like you, I love writing romances and giving couples their HEA in spite of all the odds they face! Thanks so much for stopping by, Elizabeth! The model here for Beyond the Fire is new-to-me but not to the romance cover world. His name is Vikkas Bhardwaj, and he's also a VERY nice person!
