My review of Baptism of Fire by Stephanie ConstanteRating 5*****This book was provided by the author for honest literary review.  The opinions expressed ok this review are solely my own.Lieto has had an unfair life. Her mother was killed by a dragon while she was small. Her father has been lost  in a bottle ever since.  Unable to overcome his own grief,  he can barely look at his daughter.  He also has became a noted dragon slayer.  Then one fateful night changes their lives forever.Lieto rescues a small boy whos shot with an arrow.  The crazy thing is this boy is also a dragon shifter.  No one in her village knew they were actually human as well as beast.After several years Lieto and Aidan are thrown back together and forced to relearn about each other.  Each has to let go of their own individual prejudices in order to fond the middle ground and learn to coexist.  For a debut novel this book is very well written.  It's written on a higher level than many of us are accustomed to.  The story is a very eloquently painted one verbally.  It's not a novel you will fly through but one to take your time and enjoy. This is the first novel in the Draconi series so I do look forward to seeing how this turns out.....The  ending which I will never reveal leaves you screaming for more.....it just kills me to have to wait a couple more months.
