Born of Fire (The League, Book 2)

If you enjoy paranormal romance, this book is for you. Although the book can be read alone, I recommend reading the other books in the series (in order). Shrrilyn Kenyon is a great author.

I thought this book was great. This is the first book I have read by Sherrilyn Kenyon and I loved it....
It has a great story line and the suspense was well done. This book really kept moving and I like that.
I am looking forward to reading the next one "Born of Ice"

I enjoyed the heck out of this book as I did the first of this new series. I'm totally looking forward to the next one as well. While the heroine made some goofy mistakes that she should've known better, I still think she was great. I was glad to see Shay find a good match for herself! I've always loved reading Sherrilyn Kenyon and will continue to read so long as she continues to write.

With the deaths of their parents, as the oldest Sharara "Shay" Dagan takes responsibility for her two younger sisters and brother. She has fed them and put roof over their heads by being a free-tracer bounty hunter. However, with bills still to pay and her sibling Tessa hospitalized, she needs to make money fast or the government will refuse medical treatment. She accepts a contact to bring in accused rapist killer C.I. Syn, a friend of her sister Caillen. They know each other and he has been kind to her family, but a job brings in needed cash.

Shay pursues Syn as only she can. He is on the lam struggling with the betrayal by his wife and his son and knows his pursuer is a legend in bringing in criminals. However, when Shay catches up to Syn, she fears her attraction to him may be coloring her belief he is innocent; but she prays she is right because she is taking a chance that could harm her sister.

The second Ichidian Universe League futuristic fantasy romance (see Born of Night) focuses on two people who know each other, but his past has made him a semi-loner as expected of an assassin while she remains responsible for her siblings. Fans will enjoy this rewriting of an e-book as this is the ultimate cat and mouse gender war between a take no prisoners tracer and an assassin felon as only Sherrilyn Kenyon can describe.

Born of Fire is about C.I Syn a thief who has a bounty on his head that will surely help Shahara save her sister, Tess, from being thrown out of the hospital after a beating she had taken for now paying her gambling debts.

Seax Shahara is the best bounty hunter there is. Syn trained by assassins is the best at running and hiding, until he meets Shahara. They either have to team up or their lives will be over.

Not unlike any of her other books both heroine and hero survived the worst sorts of abuse. Just when you think it can't possibly get any worse it does and in detail. I guess the best thing that comes out of it is that you get a real sense of the character and what they went through to be where they are now. It's important to building the character even as you're screaming on the inside for the injustices they went through. For the characters the hits just keep on coming. To the point where you're wondering if they'll ever have anything go their way.

The only thing that stands out to me in this book as slightly annoying is that every tracer, bad guy, or man that went to attack Shahara would drop them with one signature move. Ok, I get it. It's effective but come on. You can't win every fight by going in that way. The fighting and the action was exciting it was a bit like, ok, we've seen you do that one already. Nevertheless it was still a good read. Sad, disturbing, exciting, depressing all wrapped up in one novel. The second in The League series by Kenyon.
