Publisher's summary

I have my senior year planned: keep my head down, don’t make any waves, and get the diploma. I’ve done the popularity thing at Savage River High, but after two years away, I have no interest in reclaiming my crown.

The last time I put myself in the spotlight, I was left in shambles.

Unfortunately, my carefully laid plans go to hell when I grab the attention of dark, forbidding, and brutally hot Sebastian Vega. He looks at me like he wants to kill my puppy or eat me alive. Quite possibly both.

Sebastian is everywhere I go, and he’s decided I’m the twisted game he wants to play, whether I’m a willing participant or not.

The question is...what will I have to lose in order to win?

Author's Note: This is a dark high school bully romance with mature themes and dubious situations that some listeners may find offensive. If you’re looking for a nice guy prince of a hero, this story isn’t for you.

Great story

This was so good I couldn’t stop listening. I only wish that the male narrator would read more than just the epilogue.

Proceed with caution

I cannot stress how much I appreciate when an author warns the reader of triggering content. I knew going in there was an issue of consent, and normally I am that reader that wouldn't even dabble in questionable consent, and I would not finish a book if it got to be too uncomfortable for me. I liked the twist at the end, but even still, this is definitely a book to proceed with caution on if you struggle with non consensual encounters. It's a topic that's never fully dropped throughout the book, and the heroine frequently minds that the hero can, could and has already taken what he wanted regardless of consent. Yet, for some insane reason, not quite as insane as the heroine, I couldn't stop listening the narration is perfect. There is good reason why it's primarily 1 POV, and it really makes sense in the end. If you can get past the trigger, it's a good read.

The Obsession We Seek

Brilliant. The stalker that isn't. The one we want to be wanted by. Lovely performance of a book I couldn't put down. I can't wait to listen to the whole series!!!

Fantastic story

I knew before I started this audio book that it was going to love it and as expected Julia Wolfe did not disappoint. I keep thinking that her writing and story-telling cannot possibly get any better but it does each and every time.

This is a story about Grace Patel and Sebastian Vega, they are 18 year old high school seniors who are both had tragedies in their past. Grace’s tragedies had her leaving her high school and moving to another country with her parents. Two years later another tragedy has Grace and her mother coming back to the US and Grace having to go back to her High School. Grace has changed and is hoping to get thru her senior year but her past has other plans. This book is from Graces POV.

Sebastian Vega is a hot, angry brooding young man who seems to be anywhere Grace happens to be. We do not get Sebatians POV during this story and usually I am not a fan of single POV.s but with this story I am so glad it was written this way, it helped to keep the mystery of Sebastian going.


Sebastiabn and Grace have an instant attraction which Grace tries to avoid, but she is drawn to him much to her annoyance.

Their attraction It isn't straightforward and not without its hiccups but it is a journey as a reader you NEED in your life! Start A Fire is an absolutely fantastic audio book.

This book deals with two scenes of dubious consent (one in the past and one in the present) and may be a trigger for some, just know that Julia Wolfe dealt with the issue in a sensitive manor.

Great Read

Loved this book, loved the narration. Wished they had Bash narration in more chapters than the epilogue. Downloaded the other books after this one.

Why the voice on epilogue

I enjoyed the story the only thing I disliked in my opinion was the male voice that did the epilogue.

Dark Bully Romance

Sebastian (Bash) and Grace have undeniable chemistry. Bash is dark, controlling and a bit scary. Grace stands up for herself at every turn. Love how strong Grace is! Grace has been through a lot recently and doesn't need any more grief. Slowly throughout this book with Grace's pushback she chips away at Bash and we see why he is the way he is and how endearing it truly can be. I love peeling back the layers of Bash and watching Grace fall for him. Loved the narrators as well!

Darkly Intensity, Raw Emotion & Sultry Heat

This book was absolutely amazing and from me that is very high praise because "Bully Romances" are hit and miss with me (and all too often a miss!). Bash and Grace had me in their fierce grip right from the start. A very painful history, a tense present and her overall spunkiness, made Grace relatable and wickedly easy to feel for. Bash or Sebastian is super intense, gruff and rough around the edges. I warn you now, HE IS going to push your boundaries on occasion (This is after all dark read), but for me personally he never crossed any lines that he couldn't come back from (and I've got some lines that are set in stone and if they are crossed, I'm done!). These complex characters ended up being as endearing as they were flawed. To compliment them we have a beautifully written storyline, that is as strong as they are. A potent blend of raw emotions, drama, tension, angst, turmoil, twists and desire flows effortless across every page and does its utmost best to lure you in and inspires a desperate need to linger. Add to this a incredible cast of secondary characters that you will need to see get their own books and you end up with an all the feels romance that takes your emotions on one epic ride! The performances given by the dual narrators was excellent. I found their voices pleasing and easy to listen to and I felt they fit the characters really well.

Very entertaining.

I read this book when it first released & was super excited to see it come out on audio. The narrators did a wonderful job bringing this story to life.

The Book brought to life

I've already read the book so I knew the storyline. But HEARING it on audio is a whole other level of 🔥🔥🔥! Allie Piper and Gideon Frost were amazing to listen to while they brought Grace and Sebastion to life!
