Fresh Fiction Review

Heart of the Flame
Tina St. John

Romance Paranormal | Romance Historical

In Tina St. John's first Dragon Chalice novel, HEART OF THE HUNTER, Ariana of Clairmont and Braedon le Chasseur rescued her brother, Kenrick, from the evil Silas de Mortaine. Recovered from his imprisonment and in possession of Calasaar, one of the pieces of the Dragon Chalice, in HEART OF THE FLAME, Kenrick is determined to find the remaining pieces of the Chalice before deMortaine or former friend, Draec le Nantres, can get their hands on them. Haven is the lone survivor of an attack that left Rand of Greycliff and his family dead, also leaving a clue to the location of the Chalice missing. Gravely injured, with no memory of her past or the attack, Haven is taken to Clairmont to recover. Kenrick is sure that Haven's knowledge of the attack will lead him to the missing clue. She wishes the memory to remain gone, sure that knowing what occurred on that horrible night can only lead to disaster. In spite of his suspicions regarding the lovely Haven, Kenrick is drawn to her and encouraged by Ariana and Braedon to deepen their relationship. When his friend Rand returns from the dead with the story of what happened on the night of the attack on Greycliff, Kenrick's faith in Haven, and in his own moral beliefs, is sorely tested. Her memory returned and her life threatened by her love for Kenrick, Haven makes a deal with le Nantres in order to aide Kenrick and Rand in their quest for the Chalice and revenge upon those who killed Rand's family. HEART OF THE FLAME is the second novel in the Dragon Chalice series. Ms. St. John has outdone herself in this latest page-turner, creating charismatic, sympathetic characters, frightening villains and twists and turns to surprise and entertain readers. The passion and heartache between Kenrick and Haven is sumptuous and catching up with Braedon and Ariana is an added treat. The next Dragon Chalice novel can't come soon enough for me!

SUMMARY

Six months in an enemy's dungeon might have broken a weaker man, but former Templar knight Kenrick of Clairmont has emerged from imprisonment with an unyielding determination, and consumed by a single daunting quest: to find the Dragon Chalice, a mystical treasure said to grant its bearer unlimited power. It is a dangerous chase, one that pits Kenrick against foes skilled in dark, deadly arts. But no obstacle will prove more treacherous--nor more seductively lethal--than the fiery beauty called Haven. Caught up in the battle for the Chalice, Haven survives a night of terror that leaves her wounded and near death. Her memory scorched by fever, Haven awakens to find herself in the care of the forbidding, handsome Kenrick, who offers his protection in return for her alliance. A tenuous trust is formed between them, which soon ignites into a fierce passion neither can deny. But Haven's past is beginning to surface, and her secrets will threaten the fragile bond that she and Kenrick share--and embroil them in a fight for their very lives . . . .
