Publisher's summary

Joclyn Despain has been marred by a brand on her skin. She doesn't know why it appeared on her neck, but she doesn't want anyone to see it, including her best friend, Ryland, who knows everything else about her. The scar is the reason she hides herself behind baggy clothes and won't let the idea of kissing Ryland enter her mind, no matter how much she wants to. The scar is the reason she is being hunted. If only she knew that she was. If only she had known that the cursed stone her estranged father sent for her 16th birthday would trigger a change in her. Now she is being stalked by a tall, blonde man and is miraculously throwing her high school bully 10 feet in the air. Joclyn attempts to find some answers and the courage to follow her heart. When Ryland finds her scar, only he knows what it means and who will kill her because of it. Kiss of Fire is book one of five; it is a clean young adult paranormal romance. Language: low to none. Violence: mild to moderate. Sexual content: low to none.

If you enjoy YA

Very good YA book. I think it’s a great read for everyone who likes that spark of magic in a book. Only bad thing I can say, the story development was a bit slow.

I was hooked from the minute i read this

I LOVE this series so much but Im not the biggest fan of the narrator. She seems so monotone and unconvincing, almost as if shes trying too hard, which sucks so much because it takes away from the story and character developments.

LOVE IT!!

Kiss of Fire is a wonderful story of love, magic and danger. A girl learns she is more than the freak she thought she was and discovers her greatest love alongside her greatest heartbreak while facing danger that she never knew was lurking around the corners all her life. I highly recommend this for people who are into magic and romance in YA novels.

Loved it but hated the ending!

I got.caught up In the story only to come to an abrupt halt at the end when things went to crap. I really hate when that happens. I really don't like it when there is no satisfactory ending. But the story itself was really good.

Not sure how I feel about this book

It was slow getting going. It develops slowly and ended unresolved. I may read the second book as I am undecided. I hope in future books the protagonist comes into her power and works harder toward her goal.

creative and enthralling

Ethington creates a u Niue but believable world to thrust her introverted, wary Jocelyn into with fascinating characters and a totally swoon-worthy Ryland her best friend who seems to be more involved in the magic and secrets in her life. The story pulled me in, the characters entertained and the narration was well done though I found Ryland voice a bit off putting. Overall a good supernatural YA and with that horrifying ending, I'm onto book 2...
