About THE CALL OF FIRE
The only thing more dangerous than their love? Thinking they might actually survive it…
Elspeth Lennox arranges the Natura worldās most powerful unions every day. But her own love life? Thatās way more complicated. Her bloodline (and lack of elemental powers) ensures that she wonāt get a fairy tale ending. A mutually beneficial arranged marriage is probably the best she can do. And sheās mostly OK with thatā¦until she meets her inconveniently sexy new bodyguard.
Fire elemental Aleron FoussĆ© will have his revenge. Protecting Elspeth will give him the cover he needs to finally bring down his fatherās murderer. Elspeth is just a pawn. He knows that. But knowing doesnāt stop him from wanting. Love, familyā¦things he hasnāt dreamed of in years. Now he wants it all. He wants her. Too bad a union between them is as forbidden as it is ill-timedā¦
Enemies are circling. The threat of civil war looms large. Only one thing is certaināthereās a lot more at stake than Elspeth and Aleronās happily ever after. Because when all is said and done, lives will be lost.
They can only hope itās not theirs…

MY REVIEW:
A thrilling paranormal romance! What a terrific start to a new series if you donāt count those fabulous novellas that introduces the hero and heroine of this story. You donāt have to read the Mistake or the Birthday to enjoy this book but I recommend it. Neither did the author recount those stories in this one. Just enough details to get the gist of Aleron and Elspethās backstories. Speaking of Aleron and Elspeth. Absolutely stunning characters! You know going in where these are headed but the journey is fantastic. I loved their build to love. There are elements in this story that may seem familiar but itās definitely a fresh take on beings protecting humans from themselves and Mother Earth. I loved getting to know these supernatural beings ruled by nature and the four elements, fire, air, water and earth along with their duties and abilities. The first part of the book rocked along as our couple got to know each other and the details of the Natura world unfolded. The good, the bad, the really ugly and the dangerous. It was a little slow around the middle but then the surprise twists kicked in and the danger ramped up. It was an exciting race to the end with on-the-edge-of-your-seat action along with the swoon-worthy romance. Sure, the method of refueling the supernaturalās abilities was a little on the nose but makes for interesting plot elements for future stories as the ending and that fabulous epilogue sets up for the next installment. I thought the sex was a little bland but I like the smoking hot variety of sexy times. Thatās not to say these two didnāt have their moments of steam and sizzle cause they did. Their relationship was mostly super sweet and loving. The secondary characters are spectacular with loads of family, friends and enemies for the continuation of the series. I canāt wait for the next installment. Absolutely fantastic! A must read.
