~ Review ~
A Fire that Burns was a great story of a small town high school sweethearts Tyler and Austin that had it all. Then day Austin ups and disappears in the middle of the night with no one knowing why except her brother Tom. 6 years go by and all of a sudden Austin wants to return and knows by doing so she more then likley wont be welcomed back with open arms. Tyler has moved on with Natasha, who happens to be Austin’s enemy. Tyler has moved on but still loves Austin deeply. Austin has a battle with trying to build relationships back and winning her family back. She wants to be friends with Tyler but it is hard to be friends with someone you have never stopped loving. This story is filled with secrets, love, heartbreak, jealousy and just plain mean people. It had some twist and turns and had me wanting answers! I felt like the story was going to come to an end and then at the last chapter the author through a curve ball and looks like there will be a book 2! I am looking forward to continuing their story. I give this book 4 stars.

~ About the Author ~
I’ve lived actually quite a boring life- LOL – I’m only twenty-two and did all the things a normal person my age has done. I’ve grown up in a family with two brothers and my mum and always feel like I have to match up to them with my successes in life! After finishing at school, I went to University to become a teacher. That never happened! In my second year I realized I didn’t want to be a teacher, but still wanted to work closely with children. In my final year, I finally wanted to take my writing further, but I had to be realistic and so have worked as a nanny as well as kept a steady job in a shop for nearly three years. Took me until I was like 19 to find out I could actually write, took my until last year to realize I had a talent actually worth pursuing and all because I stumbled across fanfiction! Apparently that website is a godsend!
