Review: Fast Paced paranormal read
Rating: 4 out of 5

Temptation by Fire by Tiffany Allee is a thrill ride paranormal romance with a future seeing heroine and an emotionally scarred demon hunting hero out for vengeance. Despite the tendency towards insta-love in this book I still found it quite entertaining. Ava is a strong heroine, she’s sees the future (often violent) when she touches people so she goes without physical touch. She has exactly one friend and a family that fears her. She has a job she loves with animals but that is all she has until one day she accidently touches someone and sees a fiery death. Karson is convinces that Ava is out to destroy his carefully laid plains. The death she saw is the one he is planning…When Karson introduces Ava into his world despite is misgivings he ends up inviting her into his life and his heart because Ava just won’t stay out! She is dangerously curious and more than once messes up Karsons plans but something about this menace draws him like no one has ever before and he feels fiercely protective. I like that Ava doesn’t take Karson for his word at face value. She doesn’t know him, so she questions what is real. She isn’t blindly trusting someone she just met, sure, this ends up getting her into a lot of trouble but that just ups the ante and the entertainment value. The story moved along at a brisk pace as did the romance. A bit too briskly. As mentioned we have a case of insta-love although I didn’t mind it too much it was still present. Ava is basically touch and companionship starved as is Karson, though he won’t admit it so they have a fiercely passionate physical relationship. The emotional while quick they both question it a bit which is why it’s easier to swallow. They don’t just immediately start spewing their undying love for each other they have trials and tribulations all while almost being killed multiple times. While Ava is building trust with Karson she is also building trust in herself and her abilities and coming to the realization that they aren’t all bad. But she’ll have to except that part of her if she’s to keep her loved ones... well alive!Rating:4*Review copy provided through Book Monster Promotions for an honest review.
