Description
A DARK PARANORMAL ROMANCE
Fifty houses have been burned to the ground in a fisherman’s village in France. Who would do such a thing? Why target the quiet little village?
The police say it’s arson, but their forensic scientists can’t find the cause. If Clelia isn’t the guilty party, then why did the fires start at the same time as her sleepwalking? Why is she dreaming about Joss, her secret childhood crush who abandoned their village nine years earlier?
She doesn’t know why Joss is coming for her in her nightmare.
All she knows is that she has to run.
As fast as she can.
A Note From the Publisher
Advance Praise
"An addictive and suspenseful paranormal romance." - Lynn, Goodreads
"I am thrilled by the relaunch of this highly entertaining paranormal romance series! The 7 Forbidden Arts refer to rare inherited elemental magic that is banned from practice. Charmaine Pauls delivers characters with moral and experiential depth, draws them to life with the most evocative and poetic prose, and places them into amazing locales." - Buffyanna, Goodreads
"Charmaine Pauls writes alpha men like no other! Joss literally stole my heart from the very beginning of this book and I don't think I ever want it back. Joss is possessive, protective, and everything we love about the men Charmaine always writes!" - Ally, Goodreads
"Well-written and unique as only Charmaine Paul's can do. Beware, once you start reading you'll find this book hard to put down." - BP34, Goodreads
"The Pyromancist is a paranormal treat!" - Ms Moxy, Goodreads
Marketing Plan
Note: The 7 Forbidden Arts series was originally published between 2015 and 2017. This is the second edition. Every fated-mates couple gets the HEA they deserve, but there's also a series arc. For the best reading enjoyment, I recommend that you read the books in order.

This is a great installment by Pauls, a slow-burn romance coupled with a good dose of suspense.
With a brief detour to South Africa, the story takes place in France. It concerns childhood friends Clelia D’Ambois and Josselin de Arradon who grew up together in the same Brittany community. Now grown, Clelia lives with her grandfather working on the mainland and tending to her animals, until a spate of fires in the surrounding community brings the spotlight down on her. As Joss now works for a clandestine group sworn to protect mankind from forbidden arts, the recent fires point to the emergence of a new fire-starter threat, and it's Joss's duty to eliminate it.
Cle's softer feelings towards Joss are definitely put to the test when she is kidnapped and used as bait in the whole scheme. And once Joss realizes he wants Clelia, he'll stop at nothing.
The chemistry here is SIZZLING right away. Like, you can feel how bad the characters want each other, making it an AWESOME slow burn. And when they finally get together, the steamy scenes are HOT. If only for the core romance, this book keeps you on the edge of your seat.
This book has some paranormal elements but a very contemporary vibe. Even if you're not a huge paranormal fan, you'll still like it.
*I received an ARC from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review*

Debbie B, Reviewer
Loved reading the mesmerizing and spellbinding paranormal romance. When Clelia starts sleepwalking and fires start happening in her village, she assumes she is the firestarter and wants to turn herself in. Her adopted grandfather talks her out of it, says she is not the firestarter, and talks her into running away, and they both go on the run separately. Josselin, who is on a secret mission to find and kill the firestarter kidnaps Clelia to use her as bait. As Clelia and Josselin spend time together, both of them have difficulty controlling their feelings and attractions for each other, but if Clelia is the firestarter, Josselin or someone on his team will have to put an end to Clelia's life. Read the highly recommended, full of action and suspense, riveting story engaging the reader from the first page of the story until the last page of the story, and a must read love story.
