📖 Exiled Princess Elowen seeks to reclaim her dragons, stolen by her father. To achieve this, she forms an unlikely alliance with the ruthless Commander Cayden Veles. Together, they embark on a dangerous mission filled with intrigue, betrayal, and a sizzling forbidden romance.

💭 Okay, seriously, if you're looking for a new book bf, Cayden is pure 🔥🔥🔥! This morally gray commander is sassy AF and a shameless flirt. Did I mention he calls Elowen "angel" and uses brutal violence against anyone who even looks at her wrong? 😮‍💨❤️‍🔥

Elowen, our stabby exiled Dragon Queen, is all kinds of badass, but she's struggles with self-doubt and resists their undeniable chemistry, creating a delicious slow-burn tension. The banter between these two is pure gold – sarcastic, witty, and full of salicious sparring!

The ending left me wanting more (in the best way possible). I NEED to know what happens next! If you loved Fourth Wing and you're into enemies-to-lovers, morally gray heroes, and dragons, you NEED to read Fear the Flames.

Thank you so much, Delacorte Press and NetGalley, for the digital review copy.
