Fireborn

Souls of Fire #1 / 4
by Keri Arthur
Fireborn (Souls of Fire #1) by Keri Arthur
Unrated

From New York Times bestselling author Keri Arthur comes a brand new series featuring heroine Emberly Pearson — a phoenix capable of taking on human form, and cursed with the ability to foresee death...

Emberly has spent a good number of her many lives trying to save humans. So when her prophetic dreams reveal the death of Sam, a man she once loved, she does everything in her power to prevent that from happening. But in saving his life, she gets more than she bargained for.

Sam is working undercover for the Paranormal Investigations Team, and those who are trying to murder him are actually humans infected by a plague-like virus, the Crimson Death — a by-product of a failed government experiment that attempted to identify the enzymes that make vampires immortal. Now, all those infected must be eliminated.

But when Emberly’s boss is murdered and his irreplaceable research stolen, she needs to find the guilty party before she goes down in flames...

Keri Arthur

Keri Arthur

In the shadowed spaces where magic meets mayhem, few authors conjure tension and tenderness with the same precision as Keri Arthur. Known for weaving the supernatural into gritty, emotionally rich narratives, Arthur has earned her place as a cornerstone of urban fantasy. Her breakout Riley Jenson Guardian series didn’t just capture imaginations—it helped shape a genre, fusing paranormal romance with high-stakes action and unapologetically complex heroines.

But Arthur’s world-building doesn’t stop with vampires and werewolves. Across dozens of novels and multiple series—including Lizzie Grace, Souls of Fire, and the newer Drakkon Kin Trilogy—she explores themes of identity, loyalty, and power in all its dangerous forms. Her characters, often women bound by duty and haunted by loss, walk the line between light and dark, navigating magical politics and personal reckonings with equal grit.

Born and raised in Melbourne, Australia, Arthur began her creative journey in the quieter corners of everyday life. She once worked as a cook, and that grounded perspective—the sense of duty, resilience, and resourcefulness—echoes in her protagonists. While her stories dive deep into fantastical realms, there’s always something deeply human anchoring them: the weight of choices, the ache of loneliness, the fire of survival.

Arthur’s work has been translated into several languages, landed on bestseller lists, and continues to resonate with readers around the world. She remains a fiercely independent voice in speculative fiction, consistently delivering fresh takes on classic mythologies. Whether she’s introducing readers to ancient relics, bloodline magic, or dragon-kin royalty, she writes with a clear reverence for character-driven storytelling—and a knack for keeping readers up way too late.

For fans of atmospheric urban fantasy with teeth, heart, and heat, Arthur's stories offer a gateway to worlds that feel both wild and eerily familiar.
