 Goodreads Summary:

In The Indigo Spell, Sydney was torn between the Alchemist way of life and what her heart and gut were telling her to do. And in one breathtaking moment that Richelle Mead fans will never forget, she made a decision that shocked even her. . . .

But the struggle isn't over for Sydney. As she navigates the aftermath of her life-changing decision, she still finds herself pulled in too many directions at once. Her sister Zoe has arrived, and while Sydney longs to grow closer to her, there's still so much she must keep secret. Working with Marcus has changed the way she views the Alchemists, and Sydney must tread a careful path as she harnesses her profound magical ability to undermine the way of life she was raised to defend. Consumed by passion and vengeance, Sydney struggles to keep her secret life under wraps as the threat of exposure—and re-education—looms larger than ever.

Pulses will race throughout this thrilling fourth installment in the New York Times bestselling Bloodlines series, where no secret is safe.

Reasons I want to read & own this book: 

1. The main characters. What can I say about Sydney and Adrian that has not been said. They are just EPIC. My book babies since Vampire Academy (series where they originally were introduced). Between Adrian's humour and overall awesomeness, and Sydney's adorable cluelessness in social/romantic situations due to her high level of intelligence, you can't help but want to hug these characters. They just have a dynamic that is unique in Young Adult literature that I can't get enough of.

2. The world building. The Fiery Heart would be the 4th installment in the Bloodlines series that is a spin-off series of Vampire Academy which was amazing and had a very unique vampire lore and in the Bloodlines series we get to learn more about Alchemists, who are not vamps and make sure the existence of them is hidden to the world. I seriously cannot get enough of this world Richelle Mead has created for us, it is all extremely fascinating and fun to read about.
