Critics Review

A Fate Forged in Fire is a romantic, thrilling journey through a world of dragons and destiny. The fiery heroine Aemyra will have you rooting for her from the very first page. Filled with lore, vivid world-building, and an enemies-to-lovers romance that left me breathless, McBride has crafted an adventure that feels both timeless and utterly unique. * Elizabeth Helen, author of Bonded by Thorns *Hazel McBride expertly combines all the best ingredients of the romantasy genre to forge this fiery, addictive read. The rich world building, deadly political schemes, intriguing magic system and sizzling enemies-to-lovers will surely delight readers, but what I personally love most about A Fate Forged in Fire is the delicious female rage that ignites every page, making this book impossible to put down! * Rosie Hewlett, author of Medea *A Fate Forged in Fire delivers visceral action, dagger-to-throat enemies to lovers, lush worldbuilding, and explosive female rage - everything I could want in a romantasy. Hazel McBride’s prose is addictive and her storytelling, cinematic. Rarely have I been so swept away. * Brigitte Knightley, author of The Irresistible Urge to Fall for Your Enemy *Hazel McBride transports us into a world of dragons and scheming rivals. I was pulled in immediately by the lush world building rooted in Celtic mythology, but the twisty, action-packed plot and steamy marriage of convenience made it impossible to put down. I absolutely loved it! * Demi Winters, author of The Road of Bones and Kingdom of Claw *A brutal, breakneck, and blazingly hot new romantasy. A Fate Forged in Fire is true enemies-to-lovers in all their most cutthroat (and hot) glory, ruthless dragon riders forging unforgettable bonds with their beasts, and plot twists so intense with feminine rage, I was glued to the pages. * S. A. Maclean, author of The Phoenix Keeper *With exquisite world building rooted in Scottish culture and an enemies to lovers romance so hot, it sizzles off the page- this book was a non stop thrill ride. * Elliot Fletcher, author of The Macabe Brothers *A smoldering, magical, beautifully empowering romantasy that will keep you reading late into the night. * Abigail Owen, #1 New York Times bestselling author *
