Synopsis (Goodreads):
Fated to be together. Cursed to be apart.

Condemned by a blood mage as an act of revenge, Fenix will do anything to shatter the eternal cycle of losing his beautiful phoenix shifter mate whenever she falls for him again. As he hunts for a way to break the curse, he battles the fierce compulsion to find her latest incarnation, but a moment of weakness brings him to the last place she lived—and what he finds there changes everything.

When a wickedly handsome incubus attacks her partner, Evelyn does what any Archangel hunter would—she takes him down and takes him in. But there’s something about the alluring fae, something that teases at her lost memories, and the powerful pull she feels towards him has her falling dangerously under his spell and brings her to a life-shattering realisation.

Swept up in a tempest of danger and with a dark threat on the rise, can Fenix find the one who cursed them before fate steals his mate from him this time? Or will the soul-searing passion that blazes between them burn everything to ashes again to restart the cycle?
Thoughts on Inflamed by an Incubus: Hoo. So the idea of having a fated mate and then being cursed to not be with them is played with here and YIKES. Not only does Fenix have to live with the pain of knowing his special someone is out there yet unaware of him, but he's forced to witness her death again and again whenever things turn a corner between them. The guy literally can't win. If he stays away to save her, he's miserable and staving (because incubus), but if he seeks her out, she's doomed to die and the cycle starts all over again.

Honestly, it's a pretty brutal curse these two are living under for that alone.

On top of that, however, Evelyn loses her memories whenever the curse kicks in. So she forgets about her love for Fenix and she loses what little life she's managed to carve out for herself in the meantime. Ouch.

Throw in some nefarious goings on by Archangel (when don't they do anything nefarious, amirite?!?!), a partner who is more than he seems, a very dangerous secret that's been hidden deep, and a handful of familiar faces and you have yourself a supernatural party! Actually, it's more like a lot of fighting, a few answers that lead to more questions, and a lot of smolder when Fenix gets around Evelyn. Good stuff!
