Book Description:
"With
one last look, one final search of the lines of his face for some sign, Kira
turned and ran away from the sound of the man she loved laughing in the face of
her death."
When Kira Dawson moves to South Carolina, she meets
Luke, a blond goofball who quickly becomes her best friend, and Tristan, a
mysterious bad boy who sends shivers down her spine. Kira knows they're keeping
secrets, but when she discovers Tristan's lust for blood and her own dormant
mystical powers, Kira is forced to fight for her life and make the
heartbreaking decision between the familiar comfort of friendship and the fiery
passion of love.
Ignite is the first book in the Midnight Fire Series.
It is approximately 65,000 words.
My Thoughts :
* Warning ~ I will try not to give any huge spoilers, but be warned I'm excited and have a hard time keeping a handle on my gift of babble. *
Ignite is the story of Kira Dawson, normal teenage girl- or so she thought. She leaves boarding school to move to South Carolina with her family which is an adjustment, never did she figure it would be such a big one! Almost immediately, she finds a group of tight knit friends and a bad boy to crush on. Still it seems like her best friend and her mysterious bad boy are keeping secrets from her. As she finally discovers the secrets that Luke (best friend) and Tristan (bad boy crush) are keeping from her, she also discovers the unbelievable powers she holds deep inside. Not only is she a super powerful being who can fight vampires in a unique way, she is a forbidden mix of races.
I absolutely love reading vampire books and everyone's different interpretations on which (if any) popular myths are true. I felt by offering us the Conduits - these light bearing protectors- Kaitlyn offered a new and unique glimpse into the vampire /paranormal world. As the story progressed, I felt myself waivering on who I wanted Kira to fall in love with : Luke - the all around good guy and fellow conduit who can help her learn to harness her powers or Tristan- the sweet soul trapped in a vampire body who understands what it feels like to be an outcast, yet can be killed by her very light. Obviously Luke is the easy choice and something in me wants her to pick easy just for once. I think it's because he's such a good guy (not that Tristan isn't) and shouldn't the good guy win once in a while?
Between the brewing love triangle, the search for the truth about her parents and the amazing fights with vampires, I was kept on the edge of my seat for the entire book. It moved along at a good pace and I was frustrated every time I was interrupted for any little need (don't the kids understand I can't feed them when I'm in the middle of a good book?). One thing that I really loved was the ending- while it could have left us completely hanging, waiting impatiently for the next in the series, I felt there was enough closure to be satisfied and not agitated like I can be sometimes. Naturally I was still yearning for the next book, but I felt there was some closure which to me gets an extra gold star ! I'll be back with reviews for the rest of the series as I get them read! Can't wait!

escaped…again. Tristan forgot…everything. And Luke, well, Luke was getting more
than a little impatient. But those were the least of Kira’s concerns, because
something else happened in England—something she was trying desperately to
forget. A wedge of evil had lodged itself in her heart, a little black hole had
nestled into her flames, and it wasn’t going away—not anytime soon…and maybe
not ever.
Scorch is the
fourth and final book in the thrilling Midnight Fire Series. It is
approximately 65,000 words.

Dylan's Story
Buy it : Amazon | B&N | Smashwords
I am a small town girl with big dreams. I grew up in a small coastal community called Pamlico County in the town of Reelsboro North Carolina. Growing up in such a rural area there wasn't much to do, so I developed a wide fantasy finding solace in writing poetry and songs. After high school I left my little secure coastal town to discover other parts of the country. It was a sad and lonely time, but also a fun and exciting time in my life. I had too many emotions to process so I started to put it all down on paper. That became the start of my first novel, which I have yet to finish. My first complete novel entitled Protector was a dream come true, although I found out during the process, at 31 years old, I am dyslexic. Reading was always a struggle throughout my life and finding out why has really made a difference in me and my writing. It was such a wonderful and daunting process but I have succeeded in doing something I never thought I would do. I have 3 novels published, Protect, Protect Me and Too Close To Home and 2 more on the way. Writing is such a passion of mine and will continue to be whether I become successful with it or not. I currently live out side of my home town with my husband and daughter.
