Alexa remains by the
newly crowned King Damian’s side as his guard, ever committed to helping
him rebuild Antion and reclaim the hope of Antion's people, despite
continuing to harbor a secret love for him. However, when another threat
to Damian and his kingdom emerges, and blame is cast on their newly
forged allies from Blevon, Alexa knows things are not what they seem.
With the fate of her nation hanging in the balance once again, will
Alexa be able to protect her king and uncover the true enemy -- before
it's too late? (Goodreads)

Let me start this review off by pointing something vital out:
I HATED Lady Vera. I visualized throttling her every page since I
discovered her literary existence.
Right, just needed to get that off of my chest.
IGNITE was such a fast and fun read. I read it until 2 am (yup, one of those books) and picked it up first thing when I woke up. I practically slept with it, I didn't wanna put if down.
It starts out with Alexa being her typical stubborn self, convincing herself that she isn't good enough for Damian (can somebody say dramatic much??) and thus crushing Damian's heart in the process. I just kept seeing him turn these big beautiful blue (3 alliteration points to me) puppy dog eyes on her (not that he did, he put up his mask of indifference, but a girl can dream).
Then Damian is attacked (for reals this time, not something he staged). But, right before the assassination attempt went off, Lady Vera Crack Head (probably not her last name) walked into the room and charmed the hair off of everyones' head except for Alexa's (and someone else...maybe...maybe not...you find out for yourself, stop making me do everything for you xD).
All you really need to know are these key things. Take note. Grab that pen behind your ear and jot this down:

Jax is the cutest little boy.
Damian has the biggest heart...and blue eyes....and muscles (what?).
Alexa can kick some serious behind.
Rylan may be jealous because of reasons.
Tanoori has a crush (But who you ask? Some dude *shrugs*).
Eljin likes picnics...except when he doesn't (show up, that is).
Vera, though she is a ginger like me, is forcing it. Quite literally.
Rafe, I don't know who you are, but I will find you, and I will kill you.
The only thing I didn't like about this book was what I've been WISHING to happen since Defy. Can you guess? Lemme tell you, close your eyes, and picture this. Damian and Alexa face off in a sword fight. It may sound weird, but I'd really enjoy that. I think I may get my wish in the next book ;)
Happy Reading!!!
