The love between Kyle and his mortal boyfriend Elias has been a deadly dance since the night they first met.

Despite their brief encounter with the vicious immortal underworld, Kyle and Elias, along with their friends, strive to build a calm and happy life together in their small desert town, determined to leave the past behind.

But the arrival of a menacing stranger　and an untimely visitor from Kyles past　thrusts them back into a game of danger and deceit. As Kyle delves deeper into the ruthless society of Them, he questions everything he holds true about himself and his place among the immortals.

Meanwhile, Tristan, still reeling from his dramatic encounter with Kyle and the lingering flames of his love, hatches a perilous plan to fix everything with the help of a sadistic, cowboy-hat-wearing witch, who himself is hellbent on a fiery revenge against the Lord of the immortals.

How far is Tristan willing to go to right his wrongs? How deep is Kyle willing to delve to discover his true nature　at the cost of everything?

The stakes are high, the emotions raw, and the danger ever-present in this thrilling sequel to Kissing With Teeth.

ENVIOUS OF FIRE is the second book in the heart-stopping Kissing With Teeth series by the bestselling author Daryl Banner (When I See You Again, Raising Hell, The Beautiful Dead) praised for standing out with its unique spin on the paranormal/vampire genre.

All I wanted to do was take my grandma to the crafts festival.

Instead, I accidentally save someone's life

and end up on the front page of the Spruce Press.

That's not all. The person whose life I save happens to be

my childhood crush Noah Reed.

I'm hardly an example of perfection.

But now they're organizing a pageant featuring the town's hottest bachelors

and I'm number one on the list.

But I'm not interested in any other guys.

I'm seeing the bigger picture — with Noah.

And I'd better find a way to tell him soon

before this whole thing gets out of hand.

NOAH

Feelings were never my thing. I don't understand them.

Even friendships are confusing to me.

The world only makes sense from behind the camera lens,

fitting everything into a perfect frame.

That frame shatters the second Cole Harding becomes my next project.

And he wants me to cover his story.

I can't make sense out of how I feel.

Nor can I rationalize why the dashing, popular, and “beloved town treasure” Cole

would want to spend so much time around an awkward

and forgettable nobody like me.

I only write the headlines.

I'm not supposed to become one.
