The Fire Went Wild: A Slasher Romance (Hunter's Heart Book 2)

by Rose Bitterly

About this book

Charlotte is on a desperate, solitary mission to find her missing best friend, but her investigation leads her straight into a nightmare. Stranded at a remote Louisiana roadside diner, she is abducted by Jaxon, a man as dangerous as the crumbling house where he keeps her prisoner. He claims he is forbidden from taking her life, leaving Charlotte to face a terrifying uncertainty: if he will not kill her, what exactly does he intend to do?

Jaxon knows he should see Charlotte as nothing more than a sacrifice for his gods. However, the more time they spend in the shadows of his desolate home, the more he realizes his dark destiny has shifted. Caught between his lethal instincts and a growing, desperate obsession, he struggles to keep his distance from the woman he was meant to destroy.

This gripping installment in the Hunter’s Heart series masterfully blends visceral horror with a scorching, slow-burn romance. As the tension between captor and captive reaches a breaking point, an undeniable yearning threatens to consume them both. If you are looking for a paranormal romance that leans into the darkness of demon lore and high-stakes enemy-to-lovers chemistry, this intense tale is your next obsession.

Step even further into the world of The Hunters

September 7, 2025

We met Charlotte, Edie's best friend, and Jaxson, Sawyer's fellow Hunter \"friend\" (although they function more like family), in Bird on a Blade. Charlotte feels partly responsible for what she believes is Edie's murder, and embarks on a road trip to try and track down any leads she can. She's not only feeling guilty about Edie's fate, but dealing with some level of trauma from her religious upbringing and abandonment by her family, when she happens to cross paths with Jaxson, Sawyer's Hunter...

Was this book insane? Yes. Did I love it? Also, yes.

Better than book 1.

Better than Edie and Sawyer, I believe Jaxon and Charlotte were so hot together. I just felt this story was more gripping because of the sexual tension between the two. It starts as an enemy to lovers story, but ultimately he helps her find the missing piece of herself. Spicy scenes are super hot! )

Plot: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Characters: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Twist/Suspense: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Spice: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Overall: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.25 Ive been waiting for this story to drop since reading the first installment of this series [Bird on a Blade]. This book is pure chaos in the best way. Dark, steamy, and full of twists, it grabs you from the start and doesn’t let go. The opening alone sets the tone for the wild ride ahead. Quick heads-up: the story gets pretty gruesome, so make sure to check the trigger warnings. Charlotte is...
