STUNNING.
I absolutely love this book, these characters, this world, I love it all.
I read this book a couple months ago and I haven’t stopped thinking about it since, so naturally I bought the audiobook for round 2. It might be the best decision I’ve made all year.
The friendship that develops between Zarya and Yasen is my favorite part of this first book, and the found family that grows throughout is top tier.
Nisha J Tuli wrote the most beautiful world with unique magic, a badass FMC, demons and darkness to fight, and a sexy dragon shifter we can’t wait to learn more about. . Heart of Night and Fire is the introduction to the world of the Nightfire Quartet series and you need to pick it up and start reading it right now.

I have to say I just love her writing. It is beautiful and captivating, and I loved how we are kept guessing about everyone.
Zarya is so perfectly flawed. Trying to find who she is and where she comes from while also figuring out who she wants to be is uplifting and heartbreaking at the same time.
I'll never figure out why elders feel the need to lie or hide information from young people. It always ends badly.
I love the friendships that are formed, and I even forgive the inevitable heartbreak.
With a great cast of characters, plenty of snarky banter. I can't wait to see what happens next.
I want to thank Netgalley, Second Sky, and Nisha J. Tuli for the arc. These are my honest thoughts, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.

‘A city of magic. A passion born in dreams. A secret that will set their world aflame.’
Are you intrigued yet?!
Be prepared to enter a dazzling new fantasy world inspired by Indian mythology! My favourite part about the first book in any new fantasy series… the world building! And this world-building was absolutely stunning, everything was incredibly vibrant and filled with colour. You just wanted to get lost in the cities and gardens, especially the glittering city of Dharati.
And It’s the city of Dharati where our FMC seeks refuge. For years, Zarya was trapped in a gilded prison as her magic is forbidden. Yet she doesn’t know why. Wanting the truth Zarya escapes to Dharati, where she discovers a new world filled with enchantment, intrigue, blood-drinking rakshasa and magic-weaving Aazheri sorcerers.
But that’s not all. The city is under siege from dark creatures, who’s strength only grows each night! To protect her new home, Zarya joins the fight. But will revealing her magic save the city or destroy everything she loves?
If you’re yet to be convinced @nishajtwrites has also written some amazing characters you can’t help but fall in love with! And a found family that made my soul so damn happy. There’s one particularly handsome and arrogant character that I’m dying to see more of in book two

I liked the beginning, It grabbed my attention and I was quite interested in what was going to happen.
But then the middle of the book became a slog. It was hard to continue reading. There was a lot of telling and not showing. Random scenes that I felt didn’t make any sense to the plot of the story, it was just thrown in there. I mean her going to her favorite bakery, as the reader, when did it become her favorite bakery? Why was it not talked about before? Anyway, after a certain point things had finally started to pick back up. It was a relief to find out the mystery by the end. I am still deciding whether or not I want to continue.
But I will say I really liked the magic here. The elementals are really cool, and I hope there is more to come in that aspect. I hope to see Zarya play more around with her magic. I think it’s really cool.
