A Phoenix, Arizona entrepreneur and an ad agency director fall in love in a most unusual way. Their relationship is interrupted by sibling clashes, a gambling addiction, a murder, and a matriarch's secret that ultimately causes emotional chaos and disorientation. This is a book that will draw the reader into the story and compel them to stay glued until the end. The gripping climax to PHOENIX FIRE is powerful, and tissues are recommended. Treat yourself to a marvelous romance, mixed with some suspense and a desert odyssey to save one's soul. A truly great read. ONE READER'S AMAZON BOOK REVIEW: When Jenny Mason meets eligible bachelor Jason Prince following a near-death experience, her future looks rosy. But complications arise in the form of Jason's wastrel brother Carlton, and a family member is terminally ill. The course of true love never did run smooth... Billy Ray Chitwood's novels always contain a subtext of yearning for love and comprehension of a complex world, but in 'Phoenix Fire' the philosophical musings are more overt and integral to the story. A tale of loss, rivalry and the search for redemption, this book is a powerful tribute to the importance of family and the redemptive power of love. Keep a handkerchief handy. Highly recommended for the romantics among us.
