With Hearts of Flame (Deluxe Limited Edition): A Dark Academia Romantasy Novel of Vampires and Dragons Featuring Stenciled Edges and Illustrated Endpapers (Bloodwing Academy, 4)

He’s no ordinary firefighter. Neither is his fated mate…
All Edith ever wanted was to fight wildfires, but no crew will give an autistic woman a chance. Crushed by years of rejection, she works alone in a remote tower, watching for forest fires. When freak lightning sparks a blaze right on her doorstep, she’s the only one on the scene—and she’s ready.
The wildfire, she can handle.
The demonic rabbit at the heart of the flames? Not so much.
As the leader of an elite wildland firefighter crew, griffin shifter Rory is used to handling any emergency. But he wasn’t prepared to be kicked off a firewatch tower by a possessed bunny. Or to fall head over wings for the quiet, capable woman who saved the forest before he even arrived.
He knows she’s extraordinary. She thinks he’s concussed.
Now Rory’s juggling a demon problem, a chaotic crew of misfit shifters (including a hellhound who thinks he’s a wolf), and a fated mate who believes she doesn’t belong anywhere…especially not with him.
But some fires can’t be fought alone—and this one’s coming for them both.
A wild, wickedly funny paranormal romance full of found family, fierce love, and one very unholy bunny.
Each book in the Wildfire series features a different couple and can be read as a standalone romance. However, characters reoccur throughout, and there is a wider mystery that gradually unfolds across the series. For best experience, the author recommends reading in order.

The set up and world building was pretty good; maybe would have liked a few more questions answered. The character development was strong and the supporting characters were good. I thought the conflict between the MMC and the FMC were realistic both in their appearance and in their resolution. I also very much appreciated the handling of the autistic character and the way the other characters both did and didn't handlenif. It felt rather authentic but not invasive to the story. Good book and I...

First off, I felt that the representation of an autistic character in this book was very well done. I truly appreciated it. It wasn’t perfect, but it was respectful. The story itself was very interesting. A team of shifting firefighters with some kind of supernatural lighting thing and a demonic bunny. It’s imaginative for sure. There’s more suspense then the blurb prepares you for, but the comedy in the beginning was lovely and I think the blurb was great for that. I personally feel like there...

My Thoughts - 5 out of 5 Unicorns - I loved it!!! ***I choose what I read and review based on what intrigues me!! Yes, I received a review copy of this book, but no one tells me what to think, feel, or write about any book! I buy all of Zoe Chant’s books because I love her HEAs and her style of writing! Of course, I bought this one too! The cover is beautiful in more ways than one! Okay the Fire & Rescue Shifters was one of my most favorite series, so this spin-off is already a hit for me. I...

I loved this story. Rory and Edith are super characters who make you love them. Edith is dealing with an issue that I have never seen in a heroine. It was well done and very insightful. I won't say more, as I don't want to give it away. There was a lot of action in this story and 2 seriously different villains ... or are they both villains? This story moved at a breakneck pace with a hopeful tone, an action and character oriented storyline with some steamy scenes and vivid, unique characters....

I'm sure the Wildfire series can stand on its own perfectly well. I loved this installment. I'm curious to know what will happen with the rest of the Wildfire Crew when they (inevitably) meet their mates. Not everyone is going to end up on the Hotshot Crew like Edith does! I happened to love Fire & Rescue series: Firefighter Griffin, Pegasus, Unicorn, etc. At the very end of Firefighter Phoenix, there's the Origin Story of this group of Wildfire Crew. In that, we actually learn a lot about some...
