Ty is willing to break every rule to save the world. And to save Eden.

It's then she realizes Ty holds the power to break through every wall she's erected around herself and force his way into her heart. But what will happen when they close the gate and the world returns to normal? Can a mortal and a god ever be together? And with an evil lord on their trail, will they even succeed?

My Review:

This is a charming fantasy romance that warms the heart.  Tyondric, God of Fire and Eden, a lonely mortal set off on a quest to save to close the gate to heaven and prevent the evil in Ananhuria from spreading. The treacherous journey binds their hearts forever, but can a mortal and a god ever be together? Will the evil lord on their trail stop them or will they succeed in their quest?

This fast paced plot keeps readers on their toes with suspense, drama and romance.  The author brings the world to life with vivid imagery and details that capture the imagination and ensures that the reader can picture every scene as it happens.  The characters are strong, compelling, easily related to and grab the reader’s attention from the very beginning.

The attraction between Ty and Eden burns hot even though he is a god and she’s a mortal but the sensual and sizzling passion grows stronger as their journey progresses and eventually becoming a love that reaches the heavens. The author conveys the emotions and personalities of the characters with radiant intensity which draws the reader deeper into their story.

I found this quick read to be enjoyable and entertaining and the world that the author created to be very intriguing, but I think it could have been better if it was a little longer and events were expanded on a little bit. Some things like the conflict with the evil lord seemed to be over before they really got started, which is okay for a quick heartwarming love story.
