What can I say, but I loved this book! Truly what an absolute delight to read!! Russ and Rory were so much fun to get to know and watch fall in love! This book not only gave them their own story but also brought back in SO many characters that you loved from the first book!! The sense of found family is incredibly strong and the support for each character is unreal that it has been swooning! Truly looking forward to enjoying more from this universe!!

I should have known better when I found Icebreaker to be just okay. I felt it didn’t live up to the hype. I found this book to be worse. Wildfire was veryyyy long and boring. There was no real story to me. Most nights I fell asleep reading it. It was so hard to push through. Russ is a likable character while Aurora was not at all.

I love a happy ending and Hannah Grace hasn't let me down yet! Wildfire is a sweet story with well developed characters in an established, familiar setting - the fictional university. Aurora and Russ are a balanced simple-yet-complex and seem to be a perfect match. Grateful to #netgalley for the opportunity to preview this novel I'm excited tonsee what other stories she has to tell... and will they be set in college or their future?

I could've sworn Icebreaker was so much longer than Wildfire but Icebreaker is only 35 pages longer. I'm glad this one didn't feel as long as the other did (even though I still liked it!) and that the story had a more defined plot.

I adored the summer camp setting and how Russ and Aurora had to navigate their relationship in this scenario. They have both gone through some terrible stuff with their family but they balanced each other out so well through it all. It was fun to see the whole group again and I'm looking forward to reading more about this fun group of individuals as they find their happily ever afters.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for my honest opinion and review.

Sweet and wild is the theme of this one. It was cute and spicy and I loved every page. This was a couple that you can't help but enjoy! The romance was so adorable and I could not put this one down.

This seems to be a very popular book but it’s just not my style. The characters were not emotionally developed and overall book was a bit immature for my taste. A lot of readers will enjoy, it just wasn’t for me.

I'll admit-- I wasn't a fan of Ice Breaker, but I LOVED Wildfire. Russ and Aurora were more complex characters who you can't help but root for from the beginning. I was impressed with the character development throughout the story, though I was hesitant about reading about new adults at summer camp. I highly recommend this!

A stand alone book 2 of this romance series. Icebreaker was such a popular book and I can see why with this one. For a while romance was seen as a style for older women but these books are young, refreshing and "spicy", a winning combination. It's not incredible nor original but its a cozy book for rainy days

I'm not convinced Grace actually wrote this book? After how bad Icebreaker was I figured this one I had to read out of spite (and since I was gifted the ARC). But even from page one the chemistry and characters were so much deeper and well developed? I loved both of them and didn't find either of them annoying. There wasn't this weird 27 different plot lines that all magically get fixed in one chapter. The issues these characters faced felt real and weren't blow out of proportion. Plus Nate was only in this book for like a page? Maybe two? And Nessie was in this book even less (ps shout out to the audio books narrators that really caught the essence of how annoying she is).

The setting also really helped play up their relationship because as anyone who has ever been to summer camp can attest, those relationships progress fast and HOT, especially when their are limited semi attractive guys available to look at (not that I'm speaking from experience). Everything just felt so real and honest to these characters. Russ is such a shy little cutie pie, I could absolutely see him doing everything he was doing in this book.

Maybe it's because this book was clearly not written for wattpad and was written as a book, but everything in it felt more cohesive and flowed so much better. And there weren't all of these totally unnecessary sex scenes. Like yeah last books scenes were HOT, but they were so excessive and happened at such horrible times (like you could clearly tell Grace wanted to give at least one sex scene per wattpad release, which is why there is just SO many). But this book has just the right amount, where anymore and it DEFINITELY would've been excessive.

All this to say this book was actually quite good and I was quite surprised?

I really tried to get into this one - been seeing it in bookstores and on Instagram. But it wasn’t for me! Too long for what it was, and without a clear plot journey. Don’t love the daddy issues. Perhaps the ideal audience is college age kids who could identify more with the summer camp vibes. Wasn’t a bad book by any means, just not my jam.

Thank you to Atria Books and NetGalley for this ARC.

Loved this book! So much passionate, sexy and romantic seasons. Such a great story with well written characters and I love that they’re back in the same universe as the first story. Would recommend!

I loved this book so so much, I’ve recommended this book to so many friends & they were all obsessed. I can’t wait to continue this series!!

so sweet (a bit less sexy than icebreaker but still BROUGHT THE HEAT) and I loved the epilogue!! i cant wait to read henrys book next omg

Hannah Grace has honestly developed such a great group of characters in this Maple Hills series. In this book we follow Russ and Aurora, who after a one-night stand end up as camp counselors at the same camp. Both Russ and Aurora are such well-developed characters with flushed out backgrounds that I was really invested in them as well as the romance. For such a new author Hannah Grace has really established herself in the romance genre and this was quite the improvement over Icebreaker so I can't wait to see how good the next one is!

Thank you to netgalley and the publishers for providing me with an arc for an honest review.

This book was an okay read. I loved the setting of this. I also think the characters balanced each other out very well and had a lot of chemistry. But when it came to the plot, I found there to be a lot of filler drama and repetitive moments or dialogue. The characters both had a lot of family issues that overtook a lot of the narrative for me. I think this is an easy read and would be fun for someone who likes a camp/wilderness setting and a one night stand trope with likable and relatable characters.

Another great hockey romance from Hannah Grace. Very spice and romance heavy, not too much plot, but I know readers of this specific trend will love and want this book.

Wildfire is the second book in the Maple Hills series, a follow-up to Icebreaker following a new pairing. I need to go back and review Icebreaker, because I definitely forgot, but it was one of my quickest reads this year! It was fun, spicy, gave me lots of feels. Contemporary romance is a hit or miss for me- Icebreaker was definitely a hit.

Wildfire follows Aurora and Russ who, after a one-night stand the night before they leave, have to work together counseling at a summer camp for kids. This places them in small proximity together and essentially makes them realize what’s between them is more than a one-night stand.

This book deals heavily with parental neglect and both characters are dealing with the aftermath of bad parenting. Russ from his father’s gambling addiction, and Aurora from her father’s overall neglect. Over the course of falling in love with each other, they both come to realize they are actually deserving of love in general. It’s heavy and also precious at the same time.

I loved getting to see their dynamic page after page. Their chemistry really did things for me and I enjoyed it so much! This book featured some of the same cast of characters from Icebreaker and added some new ones that I fell in love with.

Overall, this book was such a win. I finished the last 40% in a sitting and I feel like it’s gonna pull me out of my reading slump! These books are so fun and I highly recommend them!

More Hannah Grace? Yes please! This was a great story for readers to sink their teeth into! These characters had undeniable chemistry and I could not put it down!

This was a really follow up to Icebreaker and, much like it, managed to cover some serious topics while staying light. Just get ready because you're going to want to go back to camp.

Sometimes you find a book that is such an easy read you can finish it in one setting-- and this was one of those! I stayed up way past my bed time enjoying every last drop of this book!

While definitely steamier than I anticipated, the heat between Russ and Rory was palpable and I was excited to see where they ended up. The added level of secret romance made it even more fun!

I just hope that the next book in the series is based on Xavier ;)
