The Sweetest Burn (Broken Destiny Series #2)

by Jeaniene Frost

Overview

The breathtaking second novel in New York Times bestselling author Jeaniene Frost's Broken Destiny series finds Ivy and Adrian rekindling their alliance—and passion—as the struggle for the fate of the world begins…

Conquering a supernatural realm turned out to be easier than getting over a broken heart. But her initial victory has made Ivy a target for revenge, forcing her to reunite with the dangerous—and dangerously sexy—Adrian. Ivy isn't sure which will be harder: finding the hallowed weapon that will repair the crumbling walls between the demon and human realms, or resisting Adrian, who's decided that come hell or high water, he will make Ivy his.

At first, Adrian tried to resist his feelings for Ivy. Now, determined to break the curse that dooms their love, he's vowed to save her and to have her. If only he can persuade her to forgive his past sins. But defying destiny—and surrendering to the smoldering desire between them—will bring consequences and sacrifices they never imagined…

Editorial Reviews

03/14/2016
Frost scores another win with the mesmerizing second Broken Destiny supernatural contemporary (after The Beautiful Ashes). Ivy Jenkins, having just learned that she’s the last descendent of the Biblical King David, is still honing her demon-slaying prowess and trying to accept her heraldic lineage in present-day America. With the walls between dimensions weakening and demon realms are spilling into human reality, Ivy is sent to recover a sacred artifact, Moses’s staff, to save her world. She also has to contend with the return of Adrian, her lover, who vanished months before, leaving her heartbroken. Now that he’s back in her life, she must confront her undeniable feelings for Adrian, their linked but opposing destinies, and a lethal, unimaginable evil. The novel thrums with energy, its pacing breakneck from the very start, and piles on the sexual tension. Frost provides a much-needed inventive boost to the tired angel/demon subset of supernatural fantasy. (June 2017)
