King of Fire and Flames: A Steamy Fae Fantasy Romance
Arrowyn Ramiel, the King of Storms and Feathers. Fae scum. Liar. Unforgivable betrayer and breaker of fragile hearts.... Or is he?
LEAF: Trapped in the Sun Realm, I have no choice but to accept King Azarn’s dubious offer and fight for a chance to survive. Only when I’ve defeated the fire fae, can I turn my vengeance upon the one who crushed my heart—the villainous Storm King himself.
But when Arrow arrives as a guest of the Fire Court, I soon learn that things may not be quite as they seem. Old friends and new enemies’ allegiances aren’t clear, and I must unravel a twisted web of lies before I can decide who to trust.
Leaf and Arrow's sizzling adventure continues with new enemies to conquer and a battle of hearts to be won.

I loved seeing Arrow and Leaf get their HEA! This book didn't go the direction I thought it would. I felt a little confused about the plot and some whiplash between Esen and Leafs' relationship, but the romance side of the book was *chefs kiss* ⚔️🔥📚

so i loved the first book a lot but this one just didn’t do it for me.
leaf was SO ANNOYING.
like girl, i get you have trust issues, i really do. but how tf are you just going to immediately believe someone who once tried to kill you because of petty jealousy over the man who is obsessed with you and would do literally anything for you?
i understand being hesitant about everything considering how leaf and arrow began but to just disregard everything they shared to believe the worst off the bat? and then she didn’t even give arrow the chance to explain himself. it was so frustrating.
plus the relationship between leaf and esen gave me whiplash.
i felt like the beginning was really slow and then when it finally got to the interesting stuff it just rushed through it to the end.
the lack of spice compared to the first one was also really disappointing in my opinion since the first one had so much and it was so good.
there were a few noticeable spelling/grammar mistakes that seemed a bit lazy as well.
overall, i’m glad leaf and arrow got their hea but the book was a disappointment compared to the first one.

I am obsessed and devoured this book in one sitting.
The feminist power is EVERYTHING. I love these new formed friendships SO much and hope to see Ari, Esen, Estrella, Leaf and Ruhh again - they all deserve nothing but happiness for the rest of their lives.
Newest Kink: Reformed Villains
I need them changed for good and literally beg to be loved.
Isn't too much to ask for, is it?
(Thank you for ruining me, Juno)
I'm so glad there will be more books taking place in this world - I fell in love with everyone and everything.

"There's nothing sexier than a reformed villain."
What a great conclusion to this enemies to lovers duet! We start off where book 1 ended (that cliffhanger killed me!) and the MCs are back to enemies. We have just as much stabby badass female rage as book one. 🙌 There were some points during the story when I wasn't sure we would make it back to the lovers part. It was a crazy roller coaster of emotions and had me feeling all the feels. Lots of screaming at Leaf and Arrow to get their heads out of their asses. But as Leaf said, "Assholes have to asshole." 🤣
There were some parts where I felt like it was hard to keep up with what was happening or the characters would make a big deal about something but then do the opposite - like knowing that one of the bad guys could be listening in on their conversations but they would often speak out loud and forget that important tid bit.
Loved the found family and girl power vibes throughout both books! The worldbuilding was amazing and there's so much potential for more stories. I'm looking forward to knowing more about King Ren...👀🧊
And if you're wondering if there was a side character that didn't show up for more than a few pages that I fell in love with? Yes, obviously. Vyprin was a very interesting character and I hope he shows up in future books because I need more of him!

Leaf really is the type to bite off her own nose to spite her face. I understand the assumptions she made about Arrow’s betrayal but she just stuck to that conclusion so hard. While this book had a good plot with twists and turns, Arrow seemed almost like an afterthought at times. The focus was on the female-female relationships and empowerment. The point the author makes about how powerful women can be when we support each other is poignant and utterly true. I think I wanted more banter and cross talk like the first book. There was so much focus on the fire king and his mages that there was less space for bickering. I love how extensively Arrow changed the basic structure of his kingdom after she made him look harder at himself and his decisions. He didn’t change to please her necessarily but rather to be worthy of her and the powerhouse she is.

If Juno is writing it, I'm reading it. She knows how to write Romantasy!!
I devoured this book, just like I did King of Storms and Feathers. The tension and banter was EVERYTHING. And who doesn't love a groveling fae king? 😏 What a perfect ending to Leaf and Arrow's story.
AND we get more books in this universe?! AHHH I CANNOT WAIT!!

Such a fun book. I love when romantasy books are fun. Leaf is absolutely hilarious and irreverent. Poor girl keeps finding herself in captivity and I’m here for it.

"King of Fire and Flames" by Juno Heart is a fiery conclusion to the captivating saga of Leaf and Arrow. From the very first page, I was swept back into the tumultuous world of fae politics and forbidden romance.
Hart wastes no time in diving back into the heart-pounding action, picking up right where the first book left off. As Leaf navigates the treacherous Sun Realm and grapples with her desire for vengeance against the enigmatic Arrow, I found myself on the edge of my seat, eagerly devouring every twist and turn.
What truly sets this sequel apart is its ability to balance elements of angst, hate, love, and spice with masterful precision. The chemistry between Leaf and Arrow crackles with intensity, drawing me deeper into their tumultuous relationship with each passing page.
Moreover, Heart's world-building is nothing short of spectacular, immersing me in a richly detailed fae realm filled with old friends and new enemies. The intricacies of fae politics and allegiances kept me guessing until the very end, as I unraveled a twisted web of lies alongside Leaf.
In conclusion, "King of Fire and Flames" is a spellbinding conclusion to Leaf and Arrow's sizzling adventure. Heart's impeccable writing style, coupled with unforgettable characters and pulse-pounding action, left me thoroughly satisfied yet yearning for more. This book is a must-read for fans of fantasy romance with spice.

3.5 stars. I really enjoyed the writing. I thought the description of the world was vivid and alluring. The trials at the beginning of this series seemed gimmicky and did not positively add to the plot or character development. I loved that she created some of her own creatures and I wish more fantasy authors would do this. I think this series lacks a lot of character development- meaning sure the characters develop but we never see it, it just is told to us. Even from the beginning of book one I never had a good sense of why the characters acted the way they did and that was never fully revealed. And I don’t feel I know how they grew into the end characters. Lots of plot and world building, not enough character development.

I want to start off with thanking Juno for providing me with an ARC of King of Fire and Flames.
I love Juno's writing styling and I love the sense of Humor she writes into Leaf's character.
The book picks up hours after Leaf has been captured (again) by Raiden and Eden, she is ANGRY and confused. She meets the King of Fire and Flames who doesn't really give her a choice - either she dies or enters into a trial for the enjoyment of the court to marry King of Fire and Flames son. As she prepares for the trial the King taunts her that Arrow has betrayed her again after she confessed her love for him. I love Leaf's inner monologue about killing him, she is reminds me of a kitten with claws.
When I tell you I SQUEALED when I read
"Three beats of silence, and then a slow clap sounded near the dais, the hairs on my arms standing on end." Page 71. Over all, I feel like what was missing for me in this book and why it was 4.75 and not 5 was the banter between Arrow and Leaf. I missed their dialogue and I needed to know what Arrow said or did to Esen. They briefly skip over it and I just feel like Arrow was so revengeful in the first book but he came off soft. The author does a wonderful job at world building but to me it felt short a times, like it wasn't fully fleshed out just briefly explaine, we are introduce to new characters and the whole time I was reading I just thinking how RuHH reminds me of Moaning Myrtle, I understand how she died but why was she the only ghost around? I felt at times a bit confused with the power/magic system it didn't feel fleshed out and I just couldn't visualize the landscape at all, I kept thinking a dessert looking mars. I am also hopeful that Juno will give us a short novella of the Sayeeda and Raiden's reunion and their union, I literally spit out my tea when I read that they had gotten together and we didn't get a POV of it, I wanted cry a little bit because the tension between them in the first book was so palpable. I can't wait to read the next adventure and epic love story in the Court of the Star Fae Realms.

When I read the first book I was like ‘I’m not gonna read the second one’. But then it ended on a fucking cliff hanger and I’m weak, so I also read this one. It actually reminded me a lot of ACOTAR, but with this book I had a little bit more difficulty imagining the world.
It was alright, to me it’s just a bit weird how he supposedly ‘always looked out for her’ and that he changed so much.

3/5⭐
After the first book I was expecting the same exiting adventure here. It seems I have high expectations...
The worldbuilding expanded and new characters were introduced. This itself was good if it was not for our Leaf who took 180 degrees turns and became the most annoying character I had read about lately.
The constant whining and her ridiculous accusations against Arrow made me feel so uninterested in the general story that I wanted to DNF this book on more than one occasions.
At times I thought why second book was needed...
Anyway, decided that I will anyway finish this one because the ending might surprise me. Nope. I didn't get why we needed so many chapters as Epilogues. The book could have finished when the battle was over and the author could have spared us the annoyance further.
I really hope there would not be book 3. I will definitely not read it.
For the ones who still want to read the series - book one is good; book two is not.

When you wake up at 2am on book release day, cause your :
1) a FaeBae tragic and your ebook preorder is here with the conclusion
2) love Juno Heart ink - plus I enjoyed listening to the audio book on spotify and then added to my audible library for relistening.
3) get a kick out her engagement in newsletters & hilarious social media posts - and all that hot hot hot character art
4) and to make sure My fav character Esen is not K!lled off!
Here I am page turner extraordinaire immersed, I will be back later to start updating my review
today.
I thought book one was great but book two kept it interesting, so many twists and turns. I absolutely loved it, the characters the world building every lil bit of dirt & bones in this story.
& I strongly suggest you read book one first to really understand what's going on and how all the people fit together - get that push and pull so you can enjoy the grovelling so much more.
The dual POVs strongly hold the story telling on the right path of interest for reader to want to chase that conclusion in this duet.
I wish I could have more of these characters they were great. This is not your typical fae bully romance at all - its so much better.
Now I just need to convince the author to add a NA version to her other reader beloved Fae book series - as the steamy bits sure delivered here in book 2.

Are you ready for the conclusion of Arrow and Leaf’s epic love story? I hope you are because their adventurous journey wrought with intrigue, danger, and action is sure to keep you on your toes from beginning to end! At the end of King of Storms and Feathers, there was a cliffhanger that left me scratching my head - just what was going on and just how was this all going to play out? Of course, things are not always as they seem and that is something Leaf must to grapple with in determining what is real and what isn’t.
One of the aspects that I love about this author is her clever and masterful world building. The detailed descriptions of the various fae and the different kingdoms is detailed and so impressive that I could perfectly visualize each scene in the book. I reveled in the action and adventure that took place throughout the story as well as unraveling all of the inner workings within the realms along with the nefarious plots enacted by certain characters. There is definitely romance and some steam that was perfectly balanced with the suspense.
The characters in the book are unique and I felt that the author kept Leaf, Arrow, and the supporting characters true to themselves. It did seem like in the beginning Leaf was going in circles a bit and was rather stubborn, but I do think she grew as a character as the book progressed. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed King of Fire and Flames and I cannot wait to read more books from this author!

I feel like I have run out of ways to describe the unfailing joy that reading one of Juno’s books brings me. It is my annual self-indulgence in the midst of a usually heavier reading list. I try to read slowly and I consistently fail and I can’t help but devour it because I have to get to the end to learn the outcome.
Juno’s books are always a joy to read. They are well written and engaging; with a symphonic and lyrical voice; multi-faceted with twisty gems of riveting and meaningful story telling that is fast-paced and skilled.
She can write. She creates original and complex characters. King of Fire and Flame is another prizewinner and page-turner. Her character development grips me every time and leaves me sorry to say goodbye to the cast in her stories. I always want to know more about them.
Leaf and Arrow are perfect together. They compliment each other. From one grumpy encounter to the next, you can feel their sexual tension. There is heart, passion, humour, emotion. I adored the push and pull between them. Their chemistry was electric and irresistible, their banter witty and sometimes comical.
The intensity radiating from the pages and the swoon-worthy moments were breathtaking.
I guess you can tell that I loved the book. Kudos to you, Juno Heart, for allowing your readers to experience the magic that you paint with your descriptive pen!

The feisty conclusion to Leaf and Arrow's story!
I really enjoyed this one! There's was lots of action and plotting and, of course, a delightful overthrowing of a tyrant!!
.
Once again, Leaf finds herself in a captive situation and she'll need all her cleverness and warrior skills to get her through the trials and keep her alive.
.
I really loved that we get to see more of Leaf's warrior talents and smarts on display. Also, the way both her kindness and sharp tongue seem to win people over. A weird contradiction, but it works for her!
.
Which did make me face palm over the mental acrobatics she did to cling to the betrayal narrative. And look, I get it, she has serious trust issues to work out, but there was so much evidence plopped in front of her that she literally had to talk herself out of paying attention to it. And she's just so sharp all the time that it was hard to believe. This little thing aside, I really do like Leaf's character.
.
I loved that Arrow was a besotted mess from the beginning in this one. 😂😂😂 A king showing up for his queen, even when she doesn't believe in him.

I was soooo pissed with this duet. The plot, the characters, the tension - 10/10! The spice... -100/10. This is where I got angry. These spice could have been SO hot because of the positions, what was happening between the characters and added to the story beautifully. I loved the characters, I wanted the spice to happen so bad, but once I got it.. it was traumatizing.. I have never read spice that has made me cringe so hard and was completely ruined EVERY TIME due to how it was described. I get it, you want to use "unique" words, not always say the same things to describe parts/actions, ect. But these were literally the worst descriptions I've ever read! A literal direct quote, ".. pearl colored strands of lust." YOU READ THAT CORRECTLY. Every single scene that could have been SO hot was ruined like that. I would have given this 1 star but the plot and everything else was good enough it earned it the second star. If you don't read for the romance/spice like me, skip those scenes and read for the plot and you'll love it!

“Was this my fate in life, to always wear an oppressor’s chains?”
At the end of book one we were left with a major cliff hanger, and book two picks up right where we left off…confused, heartbroken, and angry! Leaf has just been taken prisoner (again!) on the orders of King Arrowyn, her now former lover.
“Oh, Arrow. How could you break me like this? After everything you said. Everything you did. And all you promised. For dust’s sake, why?”
I hated that Leaf was in pain from Arrow’s betrayal, but it showed us the depth of trauma she has experienced in her life, and her incredible resilience for survival. And also her knee-jerk reaction for vengeance. As we know from book one, she’s a little violent. Even though we hate Arrow at this point, this lunk of a fae has his reasons and I loved every time we got his point of view in the story. He grows tremendously all because of his little Leaf.
“Each tear I shed is a vow to you, a prayer, and a wish that you will return my love forever.”
A truly beautiful and perfect ending to Arrow and Leaf's story. The light-as-a-feather feeling (pun intended) and contentment for little spit-fire Leaf, and our hard as a rock outside and smushy cinnamon roll on the inside King Arrow, is simply overwhelming.
**CONTENT WARNING:**
spicy scenes, including pretend dub-con, discussion of death of MMC’s family, mention of slavery and addiction to gold serum, strong language, violence.

IM OBSESSED!!!
This is the second book in a series, the first being “King of Storms and Feathers”
These books are incredible! So freaking good, I love the banter, I love the spice, I love the use of nicknames - these books have it all.
This book was an incredible sequel to the first. A lot of the times sequels feel as if they fall flat. That is NOT the case here.
Leaf finds herself a prisoner. Again. No sexy fae king to keep her quarters this time.
As she struggle with the betrayal of Arrow, she’s adapting to her environment. Finding ways to behave and survive. Following all the rules, Leaf slowly finds allies on her side while in enemy territory.
I adored her growing relationship with Esen
I LOVED watching Arrow grovel for forgiveness
And I cannot WAIT for the spin off series of the Ice Realm!
Juno Heart is an absolutely incredible writer, and I always love reading their work!!
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The second book was really good arrow and leaf had a lot of bad luck. Leaf is Kidnapped and taken to the fire realm from the Earth realm After she found out she was the queen and after she killed her but brother Quinn, but things go from bad to worse when she is bethothed to marry Behar, the fire, King son who hates her and she's made too enter the trials she tries desperately to forgive arrow for what she feels that he had her kidnapped And lied to her about his love and dedication to her and that's what she was told that's what she was told, but they fight their way back too each other to seek revenge and forgive Arrow for what she thought he had done to her, but they eventually succeed and things for them have come for circle and she and arrow defeated their enemies. Good book.

Oh my goodness! Leaf and Arrowyn are my new favorite book couple! All the angst, hate/love spice, word play galore!
This book picks up right after the previous book ended where Leaf was taken as prisoner to the fire court (seemingly at the order of Arrow!)
Leaf has to navigate this new court filled with treachery and enemies everywhere, who'd do anything to see Leaf fall.
Arrow finally comes to the court to "visit" and we're unsure if he really is a foe or still friend/lover? Leaf must keep all her wits if she wants to make it out of the court and back home.
I loved this ending to Leaf and Arrows story; maybe with a HEA?, I cant say without spoiling so, you'll just have to read it to find out!
I can't wait to see what happens next in this universe!

I LOVED IT... I was so excited when I started reading book 2 because of that cliffhanger 🫠
I enjoyed this story so much that I finished it in a day. It picks up from where book 1 left off. Loved all the twists and turns in the book that definitely left me second guessing a few times 🤣 so in this book, Leaf is yet again a prisoner and that Arrow is the reason. She is made to fight for her life and her kingdom. In a new realm with enemies all around her, she finds it hard to find allies. Arrow is forced to play the cold-hearted, human hating king that he once was in order to save Leaf.
Some new interesting characters in the story which I loved and some of the characters from book 1 also made an appearance.
I am so happy with their HEA.

so it's taken me a while to write this review because it was an emotional roller-coaster. there was so much anger and love, sadness and hope. the turmoil between leaf and arrow was beautiful and frustrating.haha. but the story was done in such a way that YOU CANNOT PUT IT DOWN. I finished it in one night, kept in contact with the author too. found a new favorite character (she knows who I mean hehe) there were times I thought Leaf and arrow really were never going to have their happily ever after. yet, the last battle we scene was OH MY GAWSH. I squealed and swooned victory danced. you name it. it's a scene I can read over and over and it will NEVER get old. I can't wait to read the next book. :)

I almost didn't read this because the blurb sounded boring but boy was I wrong! I don't love it as much as the first, which was fire, but....
The new characters are really interesting and whilst the original characters mostly fit a rhythm the author finds some brilliant ways to keep the fire alive in a new way.
The new settings make for some brilliant creatures and imagery that makes you wish for a movie adaption.
There's the odd unexplained plot and stubborn characters who will have you rolling your eyes but you can just ignore it for the most part.
There are trails, there are threats...I got through this quite quickly.
So yes definitely worth the read. More to this book than the blurb makes out for sure!

It’s just fine
I was so looking forward to the continuation and ending of Arrow and Leafs story and this does tie up their love story and give them a HEAT ending like I wanted. However this book did not hold the pull of the first book. The characters barely have any struggles. Like sure they’re held hostage and lightly tortured but a surprising amount of individuals were all to ready to help them and stab the Sun king and prince in the back. Almost everything was handed to them. Also Leaf’s ignorance and stubbornness to see the obvious the first half of the book was infuriating. It wasn’t bad per se but it wasn’t anything special either

I received the ARC of KOFAF. I absolutely love Juno Heart and these books! My one and only gripe is how easy Leaf was to assume Arrow sold her out. As if he could. But her finally realizing he did actually love her... girl. 😍 But of course it was right in the middle of a pretty messed up situation. The introduction of Azarn and everyone was great. Having someone else be the bad guy other than Arrowyn really added to the overall story. And listen, I never once doubted Arrows intentions.
Arrow + Leaf forever.
Arrow + Leaf forever.

As soon as I finished the first book I started this one! I needed to know how it ended.
Still as sassy as ever, Leaf does not ever listen but I loved it. Her character made me smile because the not listening is relatable 😂. Leaf has the kindest heart and I really liked seeing her and Esen's relationship grow. Arrow, being the arrogant king he is was just as spectacular in this one. I loved having his POV and seeing how badly he just wanted to grovel for his Leaf!
Absolutely loved Arrow and Leaf's story from start to finish!
