Dreaming of Fire by Alyssa P. Kelso
Sienna Steel wants nothing more than to escape her abuser and forced boyfriend Jedd. Graduation couldn't come soon enough. When Jedd tries to rape her once more, she fights back and flees to a Universal Arch where she is transported to her ancestral planet, Nevaeh, the twin to Earth. Upon arrival, she encounters Darius, a Native warrior who takes a shine to her, Brianne, a Guardian who Guides Sienna through her dreams, and Ryker, the Nightmare Prince.
They take her to Chief Silvercrow who helps Sienna overcome her fears, learn more about her missing parents, and her roots as a strong indigenous woman.
From the first sentence, this book had a hold on me. As if some spell had been cast, I could not put it down. Every chapter was beautifully written and had me captivated. The prose was awesome, her hooks were unattachable, her descriptions were on point, and every end had me wanting more. The plot twist was unforseen! I love when that happens! This is more than a novel. It's one of those rare gems that only happen once in a lifetime. I'm excited to read the sequel and hopefully one day see this adapted into a movie! Fans of Twilight will love the complex characters, engaging story, and overall character arcs.
For my Christian readers, this book is PG-13 for moderate language. I would aslo like to add there is nothing explicit in this novel. The rape scenes are not shown. They are just talked about.
