Excellent retelling of the bible story. Love Lilith I enjoyed the way Scarlette had Lilith grow into her strength and acceptance that she is her own unique individual. An individual who does not have to bow down and obey an idiot just because said idiot is male. When she has been told by another male that she should stay quiet and do as she is told.

Unique and intriguing twist on the Creation Story. While it uses the back bone of The Creation Story, the story created is beautiful yet has the struggles of the real world. By the end I was in love with Lilith, Lucifer, Mercy and Samuel, each for different reasons. The end does have a minor cliffhanger, leaving the story open for the second book but is an HFN/HEA.

An intriguing twist on the story of man and woman in the Garden of Eden, Born of Fire was a well-written polyamorous tale that I didn't expect to get swept away by so easily. Author Scarlette D'Noire introduced us to Lilith, Adam, Samuel, Mercy and Lucifer, and explored the bonds of love as well as the difference between servitude and using one's free will.
"I belong to no man. I'm not his now, nor will I ever be!" My heels dug into the dirt as I stood my ground. "I rule my own world."
I was a little worried about how a biblical story would incorporate a reverse harem. But Born of Fire, to me, was more about the personal relationships between the characters and the differing love they shared with each other as opposed to the overt physical aspect of it. Lilith's wonder and joy at the world around her and the feelings sparked by each character was quite wonderful to behold. And I thought D'Noire did a great job of describing Lilith's reaction to it all.
The story itself was vividly detailed and had a flowing prose that I thought worked well with this type of storyline. I think readers who are looking for a tale that is more sensual than scandalous, one that teaches a few well-placed lessons but is mainly about love in all its forms, will find Born of Fire a page-turner.

What a wonderfully delicious rendition of creating the earth and the start of the Garden of Eden; Adam and Eve. My goodness, Adam is not at all how I pictured him! Samael, Lucifer, mmmmhmm, sexy! I felt, through Ms. D'Noire's words, that I was there with the characters. Mercy is so selfless! Willing to provide for Lilith so the guys can Love Her! I did not expect the book to end on a cliff-hanger. I'm hooked! Can't wait to see what's coming next!
