Just keeps getting better!

It’s the rare book that can fire your imagination and have you on the edge of your seat throughout. Rarer yet is the second book that can take the building heat and set it on fire in the reader’s imagination. Whether it’s the danger, action, adventure, suspense, epic fantasy or the brewing romance between the main characters, Breath of Fire continues to capture you and suck you into the magical world Ms. Bouchet has penned.

While a prophecy has kept Cat running from one possible destiny, she and Griffin have determined to make their own path by embracing her role as the kingmaker. But embracing the role doesn’t mean things are going to be smooth sailing. In fact, life is anything but. Prepare for a wild ride into the magical realm of the ice floes where mythical creatures abound. Catapult into the deadly competitions of magic and might. A kingdom is to be won and the world yet to be conquered.

Breath of Fire had me from the get-go. Now I’m sitting impatiently waiting for the next book in the series. If you love epic romantic fantasy you’re going to love this series. Truly keepers.

About Amanda Bouchet

Amanda Bouchet

Amanda Bouchet grew up in New England where she spent much of her time tromping around in the woods and making up grand adventures in her head. It was inevitable that one day she would start writing them down. Drawing on her Greek heritage for the setting and on her love of all things daring and romantic for the rest, her debut trilogy, The Kingmaker Chronicles, took form. She writes what she loves to read: epic exploits, steamy romance, and characters that make you laugh and cry.

Her first novel, A Promise of Fire, won several Romance Writers of America chapter contests, including the Orange Rose Contest and the paranormal category of the prestigious Golden Pen.

A French master’s graduate and former English teacher, Amanda lives in Paris, France. She met her husband while studying abroad, and the family now includes two bilingual children who will soon be correcting her French.
