Publisher's summary

Time is running out. Change is coming, and the linked worlds will never be the same.

Surviving her ordeal on Drimera was only the beginning. Forced to pick up the remains of her life and move on, Dahlia returns to her vigilante ways: hunting monsters by the cover of darkness. Backed by a new team, she vows to keep the streets safe while training to harness the eye’s abilities. But, the city has become a time bomb, and every day the clock ticks faster, as the creatures pour in, and the blight spreads, Dahlia worries she will never be enough to stop the impending destruction. How can she be the answer to saving them all?

Already stretched thin, Dahlia shies away from investigating the Sentinel’s latest murder spree. But, the victims’ identities confound her. And, the fragile thread tying the postmortem mutilations to Ella Chandler is impossible to ignore. Compelled to unravel the truth, what she uncovers only deepens the mystery. Who engineered the sinister plot? Why does everything lead back to that first case - the one that brought Dahlia out of the shadows and into the light?

Slash & Burn is the fourth book in the Nite Fire Series.

Best one yet

This was by far the best book in the series. The build up to this was perfect and the cliff hanger, oh my goodness. So many twists and turns, you'll be kept on your toes the entire time.

better with each book

loving this series it gets better with each book. Dahlia is back working with Creed to figure out several murders. While also fighting the blight.

what a badass series

I have been hook line and sinkered on this series. Dahlia is once again a badass vigilante with her friends as her team instead of the force. She had a lot of drama form and surface from the past. I can't wait to continue in this world. Please listen to this awesome story!

I want more

After each book in the night fire series after I listen to the last word I am so disappointed that the book is over. This series has everything you can ask for in a fantasy audiobook. The characters are well developed. The story line moves quickly and with many twists and turns. And, the narration for each character works seamlessly throughout each book. Many times as I listened, I smiled, laughed out loud, and even came close to shedding a tear. I was well versed in each character’s back story and invested in how the events of the story would affect them. My hope is that this series Is picked up by Netflix, Amazon prime, or some other streaming service!!

Lots of drama, action, humor & entertainment! Love it!

I could not put this audiobook down. Slash & Burn is the fourth book in the Nite Fire series and I think it may be the best one so far.

The story starts up again with Dahlia Nite dealing with the aftermath and possibly PTSD from her time being held in Drimera. This half dragon shapeshifter has a lot to deal with, let alone struggling to keep her true identity or secrets of her world a secret from those she loves.

Dahlia often finds herself trying to protect the humans from things that go bump in the night, living in the shadows and somehow always investigating brutal murders. This book has her doing the same, but this time a crazy killing spree is taking place which triggers her ex-partner, Creed asks her to assist him with his investigation as the killings continue throughout Sentinel City.

Initially, Dahlia is not fond of assisting Creed w/ the hunt for the serial killer, but the clues start piling up and seem to be leading back to a previous case.

She feels as if time is running out and something bad is just around the corner. The heaviness of responsibility of protecting the humans, her new team and even herself is taking its toll. All while trying to stay off of the Dragon Queen’s radar, which she knows will only work for a short period of time.

I often found myself feeling sorry or sympathetic with Creed since he’s still trying to come to terms with Dahlia’s true identity.

Dahlia’s wit and tenacity remind me of one of my favorite fictional characters, Anita Blake written by fellow author, Laurell K. Hamilton. The author did a fantastic job with this series, building up the characters, expanding and building up Dahlia’s world and keeping the action and overall story plot right on target to continue into the next and final book of this series.

You’ll find drama, action, humor, and entertaining characters in this series and book. I cannot wait to pick up book number 5 of this series and continue the Dahlia story.

4 out of 5 stars

Paranormal be warned

Can I start with? WOW! Just WOW! I have never been so intrigued with an audible Book. I was at the edge of my seat the whole time I listened to this the 4th book in the series. Really this author never disappoints! Dahlia, a shape shifter, a dragon, returns to hunt monsters, as well as the Blight that continues to spread. She brings with her new team members. As she must keep the street cleaned of the unwanted. Can she and her team put a stop to the invasion of the human world? At this point I say please read the first 3 books in this exciting series. The Author for this series has really pulled out all stops. Her books are guaranteed to keep your interest. My world was stopped for 15 hours, I just had to finish listening to the book. This author never repeats actions or situations in her story. Her characters are strong as well as independent. I love that the main character is female. Dahlia proves her strength and determination to complete what needs to be done. Monsters and Blight be warned.

The ending though....

Dahlia is back... trying to fight the blight before it destroys everything everyone knows. Her trusty sidekick is back along with her 3 lovers which makes an unusual but interesting team dynamic
Cue drama, betrayals and so many secrets!

Finding out if Dahlia can save everyone from the blight, find her own happiness and fight off the collectors and solve Murders will keep you on the edge of your seat the entire story.

The narrator in this book is also great. the characters become engaging due to the different tones of her voice while she reads. Truly enjoyed this!

Holy Shoot Me!

Holy Shoot Me! Hahahaha you'll get that reference if you read the book. This read is action packed and a definite motorcycle adventure! Dahlia, the main character, is a total kicka** chick. I've read the authors Crown of Stones book and loved them. So glad I got this one. Digging her writing so much!

Everything is Going to Hell

All sorts of secrets and betrayals come out, The Worlds are heading for a Apocalyptic end. And Noone will be able to stop it. I can Not wait for the final conclusion in the next book.

great audio

This is the fourth book in this series and it is just as great as the previous three. I have enjoyed the audibles in this series and this book is no different. The narrator pulled me in with the different types of tones of the characters. They made it engaging and easy to listen to. They pull you into the story from the beginning. In this audible Dahlia is back in another journey of non stop action. Things will never be the same again, things are changing and things are starting to happen that can’t be stopped. In search of truth, the things she finds only make her question more. Everything is pointing to the beginning of things. An entertaining story that kept me coming back for more. This is another great audible by this great author and I highly recommend it.
