Death has unleashed my Elemental power to manipulate fire magic. Now I’ve got to master my Phoenix powers before I’m killed again.… killed again.
Jake’s touch ignites me like flames no longer can, and he claims the same wildness that killed my mother will drive him insane if I don’t bind myself to him for life.

OMG, this was a great book. Very well written, and maintained my interest. If you love magic, dragons and elementals then this is a must read.
You meet Cassidy who is thrown in a world of magic and has her world turned upside down. She experiences some crazy adventures and meets Jacob who she is attracted to but is so scared of what may happen. She learns about herself and what she is capable of in such a short time, surprised that she didn’t succumb to the wildness after her experiences, however she becomes stronger and learns as she goes. This book captures you within the first chapter and does not let go til the end. Definitely excited to see what book two holds.
One of the authors I follow recommended “Reborn in Fire”, so I decided to give it a try. Wow, am I glad I did!
This book starts off flaming hot, literally. Cassidy Grant, aka Cass is rescued after being murdered and “dying” in the fire. Her savior, Jacob Zi, aka Jake, says he is a Dragon, and informs Cass that she is a Phoenix. That’s how she survived the murder attempt. They fight off two more attackers attempting to murder them both. Apparently some organization wants Elementals like Phoenixes and Dragons eliminated. Cass meets Jake’s sister, Rhianne, a Selkie (Water Elemental); and his mother, who takes an instant dislike to her. There is an immediate attraction between Cass and Jake that only increases with time. Between romantic moments are hair-raising escapes from the would-be murderers, who don’t mind killing innocent people close to Cass. The burgeoning romance culminates in an intense sexual experience, vividly described.
This was a very intense, fast-paced book. It was difficult to put down, except to take a deep breath after the intense violence or intense sex, which alternated throughout the book. I’ve definitely become a fan of Kasey Mackenzie.
ONE AWESOME ADVENTURE!!!
Wow! A spinning vortex of inadvertent circumstances and inconceivable mishaps propel those coiling emotions bursting into play smoothly. One blazing storyline and gripping plot along with the unnerving drama, perilous events and bone chilling suspense rock this gem to the core. A non-stop, action packed, pulse racing, page flipping dynamo takes this bad boy to a whole new level. Battling through all the trials and tribulations keeping pace with an abundance of twists and turns along with a few incidents propel this baby to life smooth as silk. One non-stop, action packed, pulse racing, page turning dynamo that keeps you riveted on a razors edge. The characters are unique and realistic with traits and on point personalities that blend and flow. The secondary characters add a little spice to the mix hooking this baby together piece by piece flawlessly. The scenes are so vividly descriptive it paints an amazing backdrop its easy to interpret each scenario as they play off one another in perfect balance. Fantastic job Kasey, thanks for sharing this awesome gem with us.
Delightful story. Wonderful characters. Interesting world. Explicit scenes. Unexpected turn of events. Overall a great paranormal romance and urban fantasy story. I look forward to future stories in the series.
I received a copy of this book as a gift. This is my honest review.
Kasey MacKenzie is a new-to-me author and this book was a fun surprise. I really enjoyed it! It was interesting and action filled from the get-go and definitely a page-turner. I devoured it in one sitting and was eagerly ready to dive into the next one.
I enjoy books with mythological aspects and this one absolutely fit the bill with its metaphorical dragons, phoenix, gryphons, selkies, magic, elementals, and more. There are plenty of twists and turns and an air of urgency and danger that follow the characters throughout the read.
Coming from an unhappy childhood and going from foster home to foster home after a tragic incident at the one that was supposed to become her true home, Cassidy Grant has been trying to find her place in the world. She has an unknown past, few friends, and works as a paranormal investigator with her ex as a partner debunking stuff that goes bump in the night. She knows none of the stuff she is hired to investigate is true but she loves her job and has worked hard to get where she is. So what happens when myth and legend merge with her reality? One fateful night the world as she has known it comes crashing down and through death and rebirth she is awakened to an entirely new world full of magic, danger, deadly enemies, and new allies. In order to survive, she has to get up to speed fast and unravel the mysteries of her past if she ever hopes to have a future.
If you enjoy quick wit, funny banter, engaging characters, and an intriguing storyline, you will definitely like this story.
I have read this author before, but when I did it was years ago. I dived into this one as I was pretty sure I liked the ones I’d read before. Besides, the book takes place in STL, and I’m from the STL metro area. At first, I do admit I wasn’t sure I was going to like this book. However, once everything was set up, the pace picked up, the action got going, and I was glued to every page. Cass and Jake make a great couple, and I loved Si Si, Rhianne, and Breanna as side characters. I loved this book by the last page, and I really can’t wait to see what comes next. Stick with this one, because it really is worth it! I highly recommend this book! I was provided the e-book which I voluntarily reviewed.
