A Light in the Flame (Flesh and Fire #2)

Favorite Quotes…

“It must have been terribly painful to have that torn from you. To truly be unable to love.”

“You may feel fear, but you are never afraid".”

“I closed my eyes and just let myself be here, in the moment and nothing more. “Sera.” I thought I heard Nyktos whisper my name as I began to doze off. “You were never a ghost to me.”"

“Those poppies are the hope of life. The power of those embers. Proof that life cannot be defeated, not even in death.”

“I don’t know if I love these things you swear are gowns or fucking hate them.”

“You can’t be gone from me.”

“Why did you visit my lake if you had this?” Nyktos was quiet for so long that I looked at him. He was still staring at the pool. “Because it was your lake.”

“Because you just tore apart a god with your hands, and I found that…kind of hot.”

by Jennifer L. Armentrout

4 out of 5 stars

"A Light in the Flame" is the kind of book that grabs you from the first page and doesn't let go until you've devoured the last word. Seriously, it's that good. As the second installment in the Flesh and Fire series, it had some big shoes to fill, and it didn't disappoint.

First off, the chemistry between Sera and Ash is off the charts. It's like watching your favorite TV couple but in book form. You root for them, you feel their highs and lows, and you can't help but get invested in their relationship. It's not just a romance; it's an emotional journey that feels incredibly real.

The world-building continues to be top-notch. The author has a knack for creating a setting that's rich and immersive without overwhelming you with details. You get just enough to paint a vivid picture in your mind, making it easy to get lost in this fantastical world.

But what really sets this book apart are the side characters. Ector, Aios, and Reaver aren't just filler; they're fully fleshed-out characters with their own personalities and quirks. They add layers to the story, making it richer and more complex. Whether they're providing comic relief, offering sage advice, or kicking butt, they make the story that much more enjoyable.

The plot is a rollercoaster of emotions. It's got everything: romance, action, suspense, and twists you won't see coming. Just when you think you've got a handle on what's going on, the story takes a turn, keeping you on your toes. It's the kind of book that makes you say, "Just one more chapter," until you realize you've stayed up way past your bedtime.

In short, "A Light in the Flame" is a must-read for anyone who loves a good fantasy romance. It's a well-rounded, engaging story that leaves you eagerly awaiting the next installment.
