Firelight by Sophi Jordan

A page turner, definitely! Elements of fantasy, suspense, a little romance and a whole lot of action make this novel one you won’t be able to put down.
Sophie Jordan's novel, Firelight, tells the story of a young girl, Jacinda, who is not quite what she seems... in fact, she's not even human! Jacinda is a draki (a descendant of dragons who can shift into human form) and one of the most important members of her draki pride because she is the first fire breather to be born in centuries. As it turns out though, being one of a kind isn't so great. Jacinda has almost no freedom to do what she wants, and is treated like the property of the whole pride to do with as they please, including betrothing her to the son of the alpha male, Cassian.
Jacinda longs for freedom... and flight! On an excursion flying during day light (which is strictly forbidden because of the high risk of being caught by hunters) she is nearly captured by hunters, but strangely, a hunter named Will allows her to escape. After this incident her mother suddenly announces that they must flee the pride in order to protect Jacinda, but won’t tell Jacinda why she must flee.
Jacinda's mother and sister are much more excited about the move than she is. Her sister's draki never manifested, so essentially she is forever trapped in a human form, and her mother can no longer manifest. In the small town desert the family moves to it seems like Jacinda's draki will wilt away and die while her mother and sister flourish in an environment where they are no longer outcasts.
There is one thing Jacinda didn't count on though.... Will. He is a student at her new school in the middle of what she can only describe as hell. Being around him makes Jacinda feel like a draki again, but is it because he's a hunter or something else? Jacinda becomes locked in a struggle between her feelings and what Will is: a hunter, who has probably killed many of her kind.
Fights ensue, threats and promises are made and several twists and turns come out that will make your head spin. Then, the book ends with one heck of a cliff hanger, leaving you with frustration at the lack of resolution and anticipation for the next novel. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and I hope you will too!
