Burning Quarter Book Description:

Sane people fear fire and the destruction that tends to follow. I, however, never claimed to be such a person. After all, fires destroy everything, leaving nothing behind, and when I saw no other way to escape my fate, it was fire that provided me with one.

Now, four hundred miles from the only place I’ve ever known. I have a new name, a new home, and my shop. A whole new life. Things seem to be going great. That is, until him.

He came into my life out of nowhere, burning and melting my walls like a blazing inferno of chaos and destruction. The only problem is that I like it.

I don’t know what I crave more. The kiss of the burning flames against my skin or the rough hands of the psychopath who lit the match.

But what I do know is that no matter what happens, its him I want to burn with.

“Sometimes the good have to do bad things to protect the people they love.”

Burning Quarter Review: 

Stevie lives her life looking over her shoulder. She built a home and business in the French Quarter, has two friends, and still doesn’t feel safe enough to let anyone get too close until one night when Lennox comes barrelling at those walls she keeps up.

The spark between Stevie and Lennox is intense. On Lennox’s end, the inferno quickly engulfs him. The chemistry between the characters is, dare I say, fire. And the love notes they leave each other humored me.

I loved the life Stevie built for herself in the French Quarter. She had everything, her cat, her shop, her closest friends, and eventually Lennox. It would pain me to see her lose everything again because of Sweet Dreams.

So what didn’t I like?

  1. Sweet Dreams. They’re in the “business” of child trafficking. I can only imagine the horrors Stevie endured growing up and agree with her and Lennox that it should be burnt to the ground. 
  2. The copy of the book I received did not have a trigger warning page however, I was able to find a list of triggers on the author’s Instagram.

Burning Quarter is perfect for readers who enjoy a spark that grows into an inferno between MCs, a morally grey, J/P/O MMC, and a fire plot. 

Thank you to Melissa McSherry for the ARC.
