Make Me Burn

Make Me Burn is the first book from this author that I have read, but this is a book that I have had on my wishlist for what seems like years. I have seen more of this author lately especially with her spider people series that has come out this past year. But I finally realized I needed to pick this one up and I am so happy that I finally did. I truly had a blast with this one here, While it wasn’t a perfect read, it was a solid one that I thoroughly enjoyed and had such fun elements that I love seeing in epic fantasy. The gist of the story is that our hero, is a demon and has been banished to an island which is where he discovers a woman, with a beautiful voice and an affinity for the water. They form a connection. But they are surrounded by enemies, and they have to learn to trust each other and their bond to reach their HEA. I had such a fun time with this one here, and I really liked seeing a demon and a sired/mermaid match make it work. But it does take time, they are so different from each other and I just love seeing the way that they learn to trust in each other and while it seems at times they are always back and forth with each other, I really loved seeing the small moments that forge a bond between them. I do wish the hero had been a bit less of an alpha mellow though, but I truly enjoyed the manner in which he treated our heroine. I also think she could have been more accepting of him. He seemed to be the one changing and adapting for her, but it didn’t go the other way around and I wish she had been a bit less judgy. I did love the plot as a whole, it definitely keeps you on your toes and I am so intrigued by the character that will end up being the hero for book two, he was such a fascinating character. Overall I found this one to be a delightful mix of a high fantasy setting, a unique match up and an enticing romance.
