I was lucky to be approved for an ARC of Rekindling the Flame after seeing the author post on threads. 

Madison Myers is completely new to me but she had me sold when I saw that the tropes listed were: 
 🍁Small-town
 ✨Second-chance at first love
 🍁Hookup pact
 ✨Outdoor + public spice
 🍁Family drama
 ✨Fall vibes
 🍁Banter
 ✨City girl goes back to the mountains 

Now I will be honest, there were times where Aurora would test my patience because I desperately wanted to know why she had run away all those years ago, I needed to know why there was so much animosity between her and Lexi. We do eventually find out why and it really did feel like a whole weight was lifted. 

When it comes to spice and book boyfriends... well Wyatt Grady has earned himself a place on my list, that man has a dirty mouth and mind and I am HERE FOR IT. 

One thing I did not expect when reading this was to be brought to tears MULTIPLE TIMES! I kid you not, there were times where I would have to put my kindle down because I could not read through the tears. 
 It's not just second chance at romantic love but it was also a second chance at familial love and rebuilding those relationships. 

Both characters Aurora and Wyatt have their own distinctive voice when it comes to their chapters, when we start the novel in Auroras pov, the writing style feels quite "prim and proper"  because she was the New York version of herself, as the novel progressed I did notice a change in style as Aurora became more comfortable back at Smoky Heights 

Whereas with Wyatt as soon as we meet him the style is as gruff as I imagine his voice to be and you might think that there are typos and odd words missing but I feel like it is written exactly how Wyatt would be thinking, we even see a change in style as the rekindled relationship with Aurora progresses. 

I definitely went through so many feelings when reading this, I laughed, I cried, I needed a cold shower or some time alone. 😉 

The only things I weren't really keen on were the HP references although I imagine if you haven't seen your sibling in over a decade it might be the only pop culture you know you are both familiar with, and the iphone/android arguments (but I am an android gal, much to my brothers dismay) 

But all in all I think this was an enjoyable read and I am interested to see more of Madisons work in the future
