WHAT READERS ARE SAYING
"To say that I was floored by this debut novel would be an understatement! My mind was blown away by this book! My heart broken into a million pieces (and put back together again!). I am in sheer awe and appreciation for Ms. Briar and her writing prowess. I still can't stop thinking about this book - I can still hear Mav's voice in my head, and I still feel the heart palpitations and goosebumps all over my body. This story has consumed me and will stay with me forever!"
— BURNING EMBER // Reader Review
"This is probably the best MC that I have read and for this being her first book, it is out standing. She made me feel everything that her characters felt. I had a real hard time putting this book down, it was always just one more chapter. No dull spots! DO NOT pass up this book. I can't wait for the next one, which I hope is real soon!"
— BURNING EMBER // Reader Review
"This book completely wrecked me—in the best way possible. I’m officially hooked and will be devouring every single one of your books from now on.This stunning novella is my new addiction! Ember and Mav are an unstoppable force, and I couldn’t help but fall in love with both of them. If you crave a book where the FMC and MMC are utterly obsessed with each other, you need this story in your life. Trust me—you won’t regret it for a second!"
