ice breaker wasn’t the greatest book i’ll be honest but wildfire is honestly so amazing, i loved their story with all of my heart. i love how she talked about russ and auroras

family issues and problems with both of their fathers

this book had less smut than icebreaker which i really liked. i LOVE russ and auroras relationship, even when they where just “friends” i love how the author kept the story fun and lighthearted whilst having sad and heavy undertones

3.0

I feel like most of the plot kind of fell apart I should say, there was none for a good 75% of the book) because this book takes place completely outside of Maple Hills and the squad. I think that companionship and group of friends is why I really liked the first book so much more than this one. Russ and Aurora are cute together and have a lot of adulting hurdles to navigate, which makes this book feel at the same time very immature as well as frustrating because you're watching young characters evolve through tough topics. I wish the spice to plot ratio was a little bit better, but the spice was 👀🌶🌶 though a little laughable when these characters are barely 21. Overall, not bad. Hoping that the next book will make take me right back to my love for Maple Hills!

I liked this book a lot more than the previous book, Icebreaker. I found the characters more relatable and the author did a great job of weaving in both main characters’ backstories. Lots of childhood trauma that was kind of miraculously solved at about 80-85% of the book, which was feel good and happy, but felt unbearably unrealistic at times. The tension and spice was yummy and not over the top. Definitely a book with spice and not a spicy book. Looking forward to book 3 coming out next month!

I enjoyed Wildfire a billion times more than Icebreaker. I actually liked Aurora and Russ more as a couple. They are really cute together and the sneaking around was so steamy! I love how they support each other and lift each other up. The book ending and the epilogue are perfect. They both feel so authentic to Aurora and Russ and not cliched or an overdone trope.
The structure of the story was organize and flowed well. It’s actually made sense and that alone made this book more enjoyable.
The summer camp setting and plot was really fun and added some depth to the story. The book wasn’t just about the Aurora, Russ, and the other camp staff. I worked as a camp counselor for 9 years. It wasn’t sleep away camp like the book and the children’s ages were younger (3-5 years old 😅) but the children characters reminded me of working at camp. I do miss the kids sometimes even though they tested my patience.
Wildfire is astoundingly better than Icebreaker and I’m surprised that Wildfire doesn’t get as much attention (from what I’ve seen). I would read more about Aurora and Russ as a couple and I’m glad I was able to get the Target exclusive edition! I’m looking forward to reading Daydream, Hannah Grace’s new release next month.
