Burn with Me

Gods of Hazelwood: Icarus, Book 1

By: Lucy Smoke

Narrated by: Liam DiCosimo, Avery Caris

The plan was simple: Destroy the girl. Ruin her life. Make her and her mother leave.

Only…she’s not as easy a target as I thought she’d be.

She’s nothing but a pawn, a tool for my father to use against her mother.

But pawns don’t fight back the way she does. They don’t violate my sanity the way she does.

She put herself in the mouth of the beast.

I wanted her out of the way, but now…I can’t let her go.

This myth of Icarus retelling contains the following tropes and content warnings: college and mafia settings; stepbrother relationship; enemies-to-lovers; forbidden romance; mention of previous sexual assault, depictions of bullying, parental neglect/abuse, violence, murder, and human trafficking; depictions of consensual non-consent and pushing of boundaries. Discretion is advised.

Lucy one of my favorite Dark queens does it again!

My only wish for this book from the narrative standpoint is that it was done via duet. Lucy Smoke crushed it again! I literally squealed when Avalon and Dean made an appearance. I love Rori's character and definitely need more of her story. Please take trigger warnings seriously especially if you are reading a Lucy Smoke book. For dark romance readers I highly recommend.

Crazy!

This book is so much crazier than I expected. I am really shocked at how this plays out. I can't wait to keep going and see how this ends. Crazy twists. please read the triggers.

Burn with Me~ Gods of Hazelwood~Icarus Book 1

"Playing with fire will only burn you in the end"

Burn with me follows Rory(FMC) and Isaac(MMC) and begins with their parents getting married. Isaac is forced to keep an eye on his step sister, and as their hatred for one another grows, temptation is not far behind. Rory and Isaac go down a rabbit hole, trying to figure out the "why" behind their parents' sudden marriage. This book was spicy, dark, and
forbidden. With every twist and turn, it kept me on my toes and wanting more. I can't wait to read book 2 🖤

So unhinged

A delightfully unhinged stepbrother romance full of all the spicy goodness you could want

I was here for every moment of Liam DiCosimo & Avery Caria’ narration!

So dark and twisted!

Loved it! The story was intense! Narrators were great! Lucy is one of my favorite authors, so I knew I wouldn't be disappointed. This I a dark, bully college romance, and make sure to check the trigger warnings! Issac is so possessive of Aurora and is helping her to get her voice back and find herself. There is so much tension between the two! I'm also so intrigued by the plot storyline! The narrators did a great job of bringing the story to life. This is book 1 in a duet and does end on a cliffhanger. Fall with Me, book 2, will be available on Audible 8/29/23 but is available now through Kindle and free with KU!
