this was so so so bad... so poorly executed. it went so slow just to go super fast at some points, and you don't even see when the romance starts and nothing makes sense and omg i wish i could back in time and never read this.
i wish i could give it a zero.

This book. I don’t even know where to begin. It took me for a ride that I never wanted to end. From the moment I started reading it I was sucked in to this world and the story.
Saxon and Isla are perfect. Their chemistry is off the charts. These two will worm their way into your very being. Their story is full of twists and turns that will have you guessing the entire time. There is a lot of depth to Saxon’s character has so much depth. He’s had a hard and tragic life and he hides that pain. Isla is feisty, she is strong and she is protective of her family. They butt heads, but are also drawn to each other. You can only avoid temptation for so long before it will win out.
Road to Fire is full of murder, lies, darkness, and heat. I love the bits of history mixed into the suspense and romance of the story. Saxon and Isla will completely suck you and you’ll never want to leave. I can’t wait to see the story continue with Saxon’s brothers in the next two books! This one is a MUST READ!

What a ride! I really enjoyed this slow burn, enemies-to-lovers, romance!
Isla and Saxon have my whole heart - they are my babies ♥️
This was a quick read, and I enjoyed every bit of it - read this in one sitting and my babies are so strong.....my heart goes for Saxon as he was an innocent boy who had to suffer due to that king - but he found his light in Isla - his first and his only!!!!
May I say how freaking much I loved these lines - "I don't own you, Isla. I'm choosing to walk by your side." and "I breathe, you inhale and we both go up in flames."

Road to Fire is a dark romantic suspense written in the first-person point of view and is the first book in the all-new Broken Crown Trilogy.
Maria Luis keeps you on the edge of your seat with this suspenseful story. Road to Fire has a little bit of everything from darkness, mystery, suspense to steamy romance. Saxon and Isla are the true definition of enemies to lovers with their fire and ice, off the page sexual tension. The book did start out a bit slow, as a complicated story with many layers, it was needed to catch you up on the characters lives. I am looking forward to the remainder of the trilogy for Saxon's brother's points of view.

Holy wowzers!!! This book... this incredible book....AMAZING!!! I was not ready for this book. It has left me completely speechless. It has to be said that I absolutely love everything Maria Luis writes, and I never could have prepared myself for the unadulterated emotional rollercoaster and the pure visceral feelings this story and its characters brought out in me. Maria crafts such an amazing tale full of murder, lies, mystery and intrigue. And her genius and brilliance shines like no other in this book. Hands down her BEST BOOK YET!! She vividly paints this beautifully eerie, this dark and twisted story, in such painfully exquisite detail that you are not merely just reading a book. You are right there in the story, that the world around you just ceases to exist.
This universe that Maria has stunningly created is unlike anything I’ve ever read before, and it sucked me in from the very start. She sets up a political landscape so treacherous and so fragile. Against the backdrop of an England torn apart never seen before and on the verge of a civil war, a romance between two unlikely souls blossoms. Saxon and Isla are both compelling and memorable that I couldn’t help but love them. Both on opposite sides yet fate somehow brings them together. Both equally complex and layered characters with secrets and lies between them. Their chemistry burns from the moment they meet and reading their inevitable surrender to their feelings for one an other was truly utterly riveting and enthralling.
Maria Luis shocks over and over again with endless twists and turns. Just when I thought I had something figured out, something else completely unexpected took place. And the blindsides were unreal. Undoubtedly this story will suck you into its web of lies and deception. Road To Fire is a true MASTERPIECE...an extraordinary and gut wrenching tale of lies, deception, darkness, and red hot passion. This book deserves all the stars and has landed in my favorite books of 2020. Prepare for one wild, glorious ride. A MUST READ!!!

Long Live the Queen
The Queen being Isla Quinn because g-damn she brought Saxon Priest to his knees! Their banter felt so natural and the progression of their relationship was so RIGHT. And the spicy scenes were ughhh-amazing. Loved everything about this story and their romance ❤️

This story is way too fucking long. By the time I should’ve cared about these characters I was begging the book to get somewhere. Political mystery/plot line was cool but not enough for me to push thru the repetitive writing.
