Flame. Avery and River

From the author of the global bestseller «FOURTH WING». The second installment in Rebecca Yarros’s cycle about brave firefighters.

Sometimes trust is more valuable than life itself— but what do you do when it turns into a scorching pull?

Ten years have passed since the tragedy that left an indelible mark on the city of Legacy. Now a new generation of firefighters is stepping onto the front lines: their trials await among the harsh mountains of Alaska.

River is a firefighter for whom risk and difficult choices have become routine. But all his steadiness cracks the moment Avery appears. For years, they’ve been inseparable friends— yet behind that friendship for a long time lurks something more: a feeling they’ve waited far too long to admit.

When River gets the chance to return to Legacy and start over in Colorado, it becomes clear: he can’t leave without telling Avery the truth.

Words he can no longer hold back. One touch— and the thin line between friendship and passion ignites and vanishes. Now River must decide what to follow: duty and honor, or love— without which his heart can’t survive.

«This story feels truly alive, and the plot hooks you from the very first pages: it’s fast-paced, emotional, full of inner contradictions, and steeped in the atmosphere of dangerous yet alluring firefighter life. The friendship line is especially touching— it gradually turns into something more. With this book, you really don’t want to part ways».
