Bullets And Bonfires
by Autumn Jones Lake is a friends to lovers, best friend’s little sister
romance where the heroine is a broken and finds not only her strength but also
has a possibility of seeing what real love should be. This is a standalone so no worries if you
haven’t read any books by Ms. Lake before even if some characters make an appearance
it won’t have you confused.
I have to be honest it did start off a bit slow for me and I
had a hard time connecting with Bree but slowly I started to like her when she
began gaining her life back, her
confidence, and is no longer afraid to stick up for herself, a victim she will
be no more. I liked the feisty side that
would come out but at times it seemed like would flip flop from being beaten
and scared to finally finding that sass again only to retreat once more.
Liam is hot for his best friend’s little sister, and even
though he may have hurt her years ago by pushing her away it was the last thing
he wanted. He struggles between being
the protector and the guy he wants Bree to come to. His police training at times I felt held him
back, because while yes she was a victim she was also a fighter and he lost a
few opportunities to prove himself to her but I understood his inner
struggle. Liam is HOT! Like I would let him cuff me willingly hot
any day of the week.
Bullets And Bonfires
deals with domestic violence, and while I have suffered from it myself it didn’t
trigger me in any way. I think the way
Ms. Lake went about this difficult subject was good, she showed that you can
stand up and fight back and that you can get away from your abuser, that you
did nothing wrong and it can happen to anyone.
I liked the empowerment she made Bree feel when she learned how to
defend herself.
Bullets And Bonfires
is a book that I enjoyed and one that I can easily recommend to be on your TBR
lists. I need to get caught up on her
other series because I am curious to read the stories of some of the characters
that we saw in this book that are also a part of that series as well.
