Holt Brothers #1
Fever & Flame
Since childhood, Iver Holt and his brothers had hidden themselves away. They were known throughout Evergreen Cove as a fine, upstanding family, but underneath, there was something more. Something powerful, and dangerous, that even they couldn’t name. Isolation was a choice. Suppression essential for survival. Knowing his own monstrous self, Iver would never allow a woman into his life, into the line of fire. His rough hands had caused pain before, but never again.
When Gemma moved into the town on the arm of Andy, the smarmy would-be mayor, Iver tried to fight his fixation. To bury the feelings that plagued him from the moment he first laid eyes on the beautiful redhead with the loud mouth. A New York vixen, so out of his league that the idea of the two of them would be laughable, even more laughable than the thought of winning her away from the town’s golden boy.
But when his brother loses a handle on his own powers, impossibly attacking a man before Gemma’s terrified eyes, Iver finds himself as her reluctant captor. Assailants, recruiters, or strangers with an even darker purpose are firing on the Holts from all sides, but that’s the least of his concerns.
In such close quarters, resisting Gemma might be the greatest trial of his life so far.
*This is Book 1 of The Holt Brothers Paranormal Romance Series. The world features demigods, shapeshifters, vampires, angelic beings, and more.*

The concept was unique and had potential, but the execution failed. It was just plain dull. The idea that the Holt brothers are , but do not know it is interesting but more could have been done with this part of the plot. There was not a lot character building. We don't know much about the characters other than they have supernatural powers, but don't know why. Even the love story was dull. They was no chemistry just

I want to thank Rose Ivory, author and Goodreads First Reads Giveaway for the eBook Kindle copy of Fever & Flame that I won in the Giveaway.
Gemma goes to Connecticut with her boyfriend, Andy because he is about to become mayor of Evergreen Cove. She meets three of the local Holt Brothers, Nate, Kirk and Manning in the local coffee shop with Iver joining them outside and had a very unusual reaction to the brothers. This starts her adventure into a very strange adventure where they face attacks, unusual beings and much more in this intriguing paranormal romance full of beauty, fun, hot love scenes and danger in Fever & Flame.

I got this book in a giveaway.
And I rather regret entering. The writing isn't very good, the plot isn't very good, the characters aren't very good. It's just overall not very good. The idea was good, but it just left me desperately trying to get through it, so I could honestly review it and get on with reading something interesting. Normally I speed right through a good paranormal romance, but it took me a week to get through this one. And it's barely 100 pages!
Maybe if it had gone into more backstory? There's not enough information on the characters for me to judge them.

A quick read that needs some editing due to grammatical errors. Since the story was paranormal, I can understand the implausibility of the story. Most things seemed rushed and with so many characters involved that the development of their personalities was very limited.
My suggestion to author would be to flesh out your story more since it felt as if you were in a hurry to finish the story. I get that there are more books in the series, but quality is better than quickness in publishing the separate stages of the story you want to convey.
2 1/2 stars ⭐️ ⭐️💫

I won this in a giveaway and it was definitely an interesting read. The powers that the Holt brothers have and the powers that Gemma has discovered on her own are actually kind of cool.
While this was a quick interesting read, there wasn’t really a cliff hanger leading into book 2. The end of this first book didn’t have me longing to read the 2nd.

Mediocre
I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
Short it's probably the best compliment I can give this one. Completely implausible, not well thought out at all.
