Keelia is queen of her people, a race of shape-shifters who change into wolf form at the full moon. Her people's major enemy is a race that shifts into mountain cats, so she's desperate when she awakens to find herself a prisoner of Joryn, one of the hated enemy. She knows he'll change into a cat at moonrise, even though he's in human form when she regains consciousness. And a very nice form it is, too. She can't keep herself from being drawn to him, and he is drawn to her, too. They each feel the deep, physical yearning to give in to their bodies' demands. Then she understands he is her mate -- a match that will either bring their peoples to total annihilation or the peace spoken of in ancient prophecies. But, she'll have a tough job convincing Joryn of that. Before they even reach that obstacle, they must work together to defeat an enemy that's set on destroying both their races.

PRINCE OF FIRE is the second installment in the Children of the Sun trilogy, Ms. Jones' second series that continues the saga of the Fyne sisters, of the Sisters of the Sun trilogy. I loved these characters. Keelia is regal and a bit spoiled, but always has the good of her people foremost in her mind. Joryn is definitely an alpha male, but also has his people and their future in mind. This story seamlessly continues the one begun in PRINCE OF MAGIC and nicely sets the stage for the third book of the series, PRINCE OF SWORDS. I can't wait to read it and am sure you'll feel the same way if you pick up this book. Be sure to read the first trilogy, too, as it lends a sense of continuity to the storyline and gives the rich background of the history of the characters. Don't miss this very good read.
