ICYMI, I recently reviewed KISS OF THE BLACK FLAME by Helen Scheuerer - a fantasy romance that feels pretty samey to her other novels (and the rest of romantasy) and with a disappointing "twist" use of chronic illness rep

ARC Review: KISS OF THE BLACK FLAME by Helen Scheuerer
A disappointing series starter that didn’t fully use its elements or distinguish itself from other novels by the author
