Fear of Fire and Shadow by S. Young
2.0
Rogan goes on a quest with her arch nemesis, Wolfe Stovia, in order to save her best friend in this adult fantasy romance.
Fear of Fire and Shadow had potential to be an amazing read if the main characters had not been such irritating leads. Rogan annoyed me to no end. While her conflicted feelings for Wolfe were an interesting tension in the first half of the novel, it quickly dissolved into annoyance as she made stupid and rash decisions to push him away toward the end. Wolfe also irritated me, particular the numbers of times he was caught in a trap despite his supposed strength (both as a mage and a guard). With their constant bickering and backstabbing, it was hard to root for them as individuals or as a couple.
