Tamara is all grown up and moved out. Her archenemy has truly rehabilitated and they now enjoy a cordial relationship. With Kristin filling Karis' boots in Kingston, Tamara enjoyed an uneventful first semester of college. But moving to St. Lawrence comes with a new identity and a new cast of villains to upset her semi-normal life: Adish, a mutant who can control fire; Apoctopus, a radioactive octopus; and David Fox, a man looking for revenge. While her life as a superhero does smoothly, Tamara's personal life spins out of control. Her reputation is in constant danger and, for the first time since she witnessed her family murdered, she finds herself facing problems she cannot fight her way out of. The biggest wrench in her far-from-normal life, however, comes from her very best friend.

To get to know the quirkiness of R. M. (Rikki) Strong, one only has to look to her namesake: The "Rikki" of 1972's Steely Dan's Song: "Rikki Don't Lose That Number." Now a Pastor's Kid four times over, she hasn't forgotten the fun-loving nature her parents, and the rest of her family and in-laws, instilled in her. After 13 years of public school and 3 years of Bible College, she was ready to take the world by storm... Um, yeah, sure... we'll go with that. Her favorite genre to write is Young Adult, partially because she absolutely refuses to admit she's "getting on in years" and partially because, ever since graduating high school, she has been mentoring middle and high school students through various churches. There is always some story (or series) in the works, and she's always looking to branch out into new things. She lives in Idaho with her husband, son, dog, cats, hamster, fish, and chickens.
