Abandoned at birth, Sophie Shields grew up in abusive foster homes, escaping into books and computers for solace. When the constant danger became too much to bear, she ran away, thinking she could survive on her hacking skills alone.
That was until she met Cole Hunter. He became the only person she could trust: her family, her friend, her partner-in-crime. Her everything. After struggling through college and starting their lives together, she believed that nothing could ever tear them apart.
Until it did.
And she’ll do everything in her power to fix what is broken. If it isn’t too late…
———
When Cole was nine years old, he watched his whole family burn to death in a house fire. Fueled by years of obsession, he started one of the world’s leading architectural firms, with a mission to design homes resistant to fire, earthquakes, floods, and every threat known to man.
Sophie was his secret weapon. She was his purpose. Since they were teenagers, he was determined to build a better life for her, so she could finally be safe, and they could be together.
But disaster has always followed Cole around, ripping away everything he loves. This time, if he isn’t careful…
His enemies might just take him down.
Review:
3.5/4 stars
Fireproof Girl by Loretta Lost was an interesting novel that held my attention from page one until the very last page, but it was missing that spark with me. It was a little slower paced than what I usually prefer, and it wasn't as thrilling as I was expecting it to be. But it's still a good little mystery.
I did love that this novel switches between past and present, and you get to learn more about the characters through this aspect, and what defines who they have become. The characters, Sophie and Cole, were interesting and very well-written. I loved that their personalities were perfect for one another.
I would recommend this novel if you are a fan of mystery, and I do look forward to reading the next two books in the series. I hope that I enjoy them a little more than this book.
