    Plot and Story Line 
  
 
WHAT A RIDE!!!! I think my heart is still beating, but what a rush this book was!! My goodness, I fell even more in love with Cat and Griffin than I already was. How can you NOT love these two? I just wanted to stomp and cheer for these two. In Breath Of Fire, the author really steps up the action, suspense and mythology connections. This book really just blew me away in so many different ways and I think I liked it even more than the first book.

It sets off with Griffin none too happy with Cat, and I honestly don't blame him. These two battle it out a bit, and I understand why Cat is hesitant to be honest with him especially with what we know and learn about her past. But I love how much Cat and Griffin learn and grow together. There is quite of bit of intensity in this book, but these two are just solid. I love how much faith Griffin has in Cat and her abilities. He never loses that and there are so many moments here where he just lifts her up even when she doesn't want to be. Cat learns more about her abilities, and what she is capable of but even more important than that is the way she discovers what she and Griffin has is worth fighting for. This book takes us through some suspense scenes and man this author knows how to write a book to keep you hooked till the end. I just didn't want to put this one down at all. What I truly loved was seeing the way these two fight for each other, but even more than that they fight for those they love and to make a better world for everyone. We get some more development of other side characters too, I love seeing all my old favorites. Griffin's family are just wonderful, and we see a change in his sisters especially and I just fell in love with them even more in this book. I love how they all stand with Griffin and Cat. We also get some more fun times with the "gods" and boy was that some fun twists with the Greek Mythology that this author has implemented. It's definitely different when they support Griffin and Cat and what needs to be done. And the wake up call they give Cat to give her the strength to do what needs to be done. The romance between Griffin and Cat is truly one that gives you all the feels. Their relationship just becomes strong as iron in this book. We see how with all that they face, how powerful they are together. Their chemistry is fiery hot, but the way they fight and support each other is truly magnificent.

  
    I may not be holding you with a magic rope anymore, but I will never let you go, and I will never leave you. I would defy creatures, and Gods, and terrible, brutal queens to keep you safe and by my side. . I would move Mount Olympus itself to hold you in my arms and feel your heart beat against mine. You are my soul, and yes, I will fight for you and protect you until my dying breath
  

They are becoming one of my favorite couples. If you need to read a story of the strength of what true love really is....Cat and Griffin is a love story you need to open yourself up to because its powerful and unique.
 
  
    The Cover 
  
 
What a cover!!! I love the blue and the icy feel to the cover. It also gives the right feeling and tone to the story.....intense and powerful.
 
  Overall View

Why do we have to wait until January 2018 for the next book?!? I need it now!

So I hated the first chapter, but everything else was great. I preferred the first book. This one did feel a little repetitive, and sometimes I didn't understand certain reasons why the character was fighting or using magic a certain way. However, I still loved the characters, the action was great, the humor is wonderful, and I thoroughly have been enjoying this story. Can't wait for the next one!

3.5! This sequel sadly wasn't as great as the first book. I still love the world and the cast of characters, but Cat got on my nerves in this one. She's supposed to be smart and powerful and yet... she messes up everything? To the detriment of herself AND the people around her. Hopefully the final book goes better!

In a land where magic is might, Catalia Fisa is the mightiest of them all . . . Catalia Fisa, Lost Princess, has been running from destiny her whole life. Yet deep down, she has always believed that the prophecy shadowing her every step is inescapable: her unimaginable power will bring unfathomable disaster. But now her newfound loved ones are caught between the shadow of Cat's tortured past and the threat of her world-shattering future. Although it may be that this, even with all her power, is still the one battle she cannot win, Cat's determined not to go down without a fight. As the realms descend into all-out war, Cat knows she must embrace the power at her command. With Griffin by her side and Gods willing, perhaps she can emerge victorious in this fiery forging of a new Kingdom.
