A Fate of Wrath & Flame (Fate & Flame, Band 1)

wow i just flew through this book! can't wait to read the sequel!

A Fate of Wrath and Flames, book one in the Fate and Flame series took me on a fantastical journey. It introduced me to a world of magic where immortals reigned and mortals were subservient.  What a ride. I would not want to be in Romeria's shoes. Plucked from a world where all appears normal only to be plunged into a place where humans are blood slaves, elves are superior and deadly beasts roam. To make matters worse  she is accused of murdering the King and Queen of Islor. In addition the revelation of her secret would mean death for her. Despite all this she had a task to perform. A task which is a mystery to her, but one she needs to accomplish. As the story unfolds Romeria learns the truth about this strange world, its people and most of all herself. With each revelation the danger to her increases. I had an interesting time navigating this world with its rich tapestry alongside the heroine. Romeria didn't have an easy life growing up in the City of New York. However, she looked beyond her circumstances and worked to make better life for herself. If asked to describe Romeria, strong, resilient, smart and sassy would be the perfect adjectives. The author weaved a slow burn enemies to lovers  romance amidst danger, secrets, mystery, magic and intrigue. Zander fought his attraction to Romeris to no avail. He can't fathom why he can't stay away from her knowing she is responsible for murdering his parents or so he thought. He would soon learn that all is not as it appears to be. The story flowed seamlessly and I no issues following it. Seeing the story through Romeria's eyes gives one the feeling of living the story. The pacing was steady for the most part.  It slowed at the points where the author provided pertinent details as it relates to this magical world.   The story ended on a cliff hanger, which has me eagerly awaiting the next book in the series. Overall, I had a wonderful time with A Fate of Wrath and Flame.  Readers who enjoy  fantasy stories with magical kingdoms, battles and  romance, will enjoy this new series  by K.A Tucker.This review was originally posted on Totally Addicted to Reading
