When shit hits the fan, I’m the one you call. I’ve taken on vampires and shapeshifters, and I’ve even kicked a chupacabra’s ass.Okay, it might have kicked mine, but in the end, I was the last one standing, and that’s what counts.But when I find myself bound to one of the most influential paranormal power players, my days of taking on everything alone are over. Instead of baddies to kill, I have … Instead of baddies to kill, I have feelings to deal with.
My preferred method of dealing with feelings is: Avoid.
Avoid.
Avoid.
Only he’s refusing to let me avoid him, leaving me with no choice but to bury myself in work. And I have plenty of it. The HAC is up to no good. Inarus is being hunted. And there’s a troll in the city that needs to be dealt with.
All of which provide distractions, but if I can’t figure a way out of this bond, I’m screwed. And when I find a lab full of shifter children being held and tortured, I do the obvious thing. I save them.
But now, avoiding the Pack Alpha is no longer an option.
Get it now!

Aria is back and she is still kicking butt and the one person’s butt she would love to kick is her mate Delcan. Aria is not too thrilled about being mated to anyone much less Delcan; the Alpha of the Pact even though he mated with her to save her life. Aria is not up for being anyone’s little pup oh no she likes doing her own thing and she likes doing it when wants to do it and not when she is told to do it or on some else’s’ terms. With Delcan being an Alpha he likes to be in control of everything including Aria but that is not going to happen.
While Aria is having her little spat with Delcan and fighting against being his mate she has other problems outside the compound. Someone is after Aria why she doesn’t know but she is a stubborn and strong person and will not be taken without a fight. She also has Delcan and the Pack on her side to help keep her safe from whoever is after her. Delcan will tear anyone apart that lays a hand on Aria.
Aria is a strong person who can take care of herself yeah she has a little problem controlling her powers but she is practicing every day and getting stronger. Aria is a pyrokinetic and can create fire although she has a hard time of reining it in at times. And when she is under a lot of stress it wants to come to the surface all on its own without her calling it.
Meanwhile, Aria is hired by a witch; a member of the Coven to find an eleven-year girl who has been kidnapped. A few months back Aria was hired to find a seven-year-old boy who had been kidnapped but by the time she found him, it was too late. She is determined that she will not let another child die if she can help it. The lady that has hired Aria to find the child knows about Aria being mated with the leader of the Pack and wants Aria’s help in obtaining the Pack’s help in locating the girl. She knows the only way Delcan will agree to help them is if Aria asks him.
The Pack, the Coven, and the Vampires do not get along with each other very well although they do tolerate each other to keep the piece. Everyone knows that one day war will break out between the Pack, the Coven, and the Vampires because all of them are leaders and wants to have the most power and to be the one in control.
I am very grateful for being given this opportunity to read Burned by Fire. Once I picked it up I raced right through it like a raging inferno. I think that Burned by Fire has been my favorite book in the Blood and Magic series so far and I can’t wait for more.
I love all the characters in the series and hope to find out more about them and their past as well. I like the fact that Aria and Delcan don’t get along very well in a way I can’t really blame Aria I think I would react the same way if I was in her position. Before Aria and Delcan mated I wanted it to be James the Pack’s Hunter and Aria’s best friend that she ended up with; although I do like Delcan now; I still have a soft spot for James.
If you like reading about shifters, witches, vampires, and humans with special abilities then you are going to love Burned by Fire. But I would suggest that you start with book #1 Cursed by Fire and then Kissed by Fire Book #2 to get the whole story and so you will know what is going on and you won’t be left in the dark on a few things. I think I am hooked on the Blood and Magic series and can’t wait for the next book.
Interesting. Started series in this book. So basically playing catch up. Not a fan of Declan’s right now. After all the treachery he was doing behind her back to acquire her allegiance with his pack because of her power. I liked Inarus more. Maybe if he redeems himself. I get that the bond was real but it doesn’t excuse the manipulations. Hope they kill her mom and Noah.
Can’t wait to see what’s next…. totally addicting
