It added some unusual struggles to the characters’ everyday lives, since they weren’t always entirely in control of the powers, as well as a bit of action and a threat of danger. The heat/fire power element of the story was interesting. And Dylan had a family who seemed to care. There were some nice friendships in the book too, and they were just as prominent as the romance. I could understand and feel that pull they had to each other. I believed that, whether it was really love or not, they felt something, and for them those feelings were big. And in the time that I got to see of them together, I thought they were cute! They had me smiling. Dylan and Jordan had an instant attraction/connection, then they spent time together, went on some dates, texted, and bonded over their mutual secret/danger. He made me laugh sometimes, and thinking back to my high school years, I found some things relatable. But I felt like it had a nice spark of personality with just the right amount of irreverence and messiness and imperfection while still being likeable. The main character, Dylan, had a fun voice that really sounded “teen,” at least to me, who is admittedly not a teen anymore. This was one of those books about teens with teen problems but also a bit of magic or powers, a sort of subgenre that I love, and I enjoyed it! *I received an audio copy of this book via NetGalley.
