Perrin Shade’s family has worked for the phoenix shifters for hundreds of years. It was always assumed he would do the same. But as his thirtieth birthday approaches, the restlessness he’s kept hidden grows. He only knows Mont de Leucoy. He’s never had a chance to explore the world. But there is a reason his family sought sanctuary in the kingdom…
He is the kind of paranormal being that many would like to forget exists. The kinds that even paranormals hunted.
A ghoul.
Oliver has spent the last ten years being told that he is a danger to others. That the Coven would hunt and kill him if they found him and that his parents abandoned him. Now, he is being told that is all a lie.
He is a phoenix shifter and his brothers have been searching for him. They claim to know him, but how can they when he doesn’t know himself?
They have their history, their duties, and their expectations. He should be embracing all of this, but instead, all he wants to do is leave before the weight of the past crushes him. The only person who treats him as if he isn’t broken is the castle handyman, Perrin.
Can a man who is really a monster help the man who is convinced he is a monster learn how to live and love?

The Book Junkie Reads . . . Review of . . . PHOENIX FOUND (Brothers of Fire, #5) . . . Found Family, Hidden Monsters, and an Intense M/M Battle for Self-Acceptance!
PHOENIX FOUND is a gripping and deeply emotional M/M paranormal shifter romance that serves as the perfect final book in the Brothers of Fire series. TJ Nichols masterfully explores two incredibly broken men struggling with identity and self-worth, making this an intense story of self-discovery.
On one side, we have Oliver, the missing phoenix who has finally found his brothers. For ten years, he was convinced he was a danger, hunted by the Coven, and abandoned. Now he is being told that is all a lie. Yet, with his history and expectations weighing on him, he feels like a complete stranger in his own family, wanting desperately to run before the past crushes him.
On the other is Perrin Shade, the castle handyman and the hero Oliver finds comfort with. Perrin has worked for the phoenix shifters for centuries, but as his thirtieth birthday approaches, the deep restlessness inside grows. He is a ghoul, a being many paranormals fear and hunt, and he's spent his life hiding his status. He wants to spread his wings, but can he trust the world when he's never been allowed to fly?
The core of this romance is the question: Can a man who is really a monster help the man who is convinced he is a monster learn how to live and love? Their connection is the healing force they both desperately need. This book is a beautiful, intense journey of accepting the monstrous parts of yourself and realizing you are not broken. A spectacular, emotional conclusion to the series!

“I know there’s a lot going on, but can I catch you about the repairs to the hunting lodge?” Perrin called after Malcolm after following him inside. A lot going on was a bit of an understatement.
The missing phoenix had returned to the castle. Dalmon’s engagement to Lucian had been officially announced, and Kaine now had a fated mate. The last time there’d been as much going on in the castle had been after the Queen’s death, and Everest had been a baby.
Perrin had been ten.
Old enough to understand what was going on. Old enough to be aware that while his father worked in the castle, and he’d grown up with Kaine, who was only a few years older, he wasn’t part of the family. He wasn’t a phoenix. Though there had been plenty of times that he wished he was.
Even at ten, he’d been aware it was best to keep his paranormal status hidden, even from other paranormals.
Malcolm stopped and turned. “How bad is it?”
While control of the repairs had been handed to Malcolm, all that meant was that Perrin needed Malcolm’s approval before he progressed to the next stage. They had discussed the immediate actions that needed to be taken to secure and protect the buildings, but now decisions needed to be made.
He pulled his notebook out of his pocket. “If you want to go through the details, we can, but you’re going to want to set aside a couple of hours. Or you can have a quick rundown.”
“Perrin hoped he’d opt for the quick option and approve whatever repairs Perrin suggested without too many questions, as it would make his life easier.
Malcolm didn’t groan, but his shoulders slumped as if he didn’t want to do it but thought he should. “I’ll schedule that for tomorrow. Can I message you?”
“Sure.” Because Perrin had nothing better to do than wait for Malcolm to ask questions when Perrin had already come up with the best option. “Do you want the thirty-second version?”
Malcolm nodded.
“The main house and the hunting lodge are both secure, though if another storm rolls through, I don’t like the lodge’s chances. The damage was extensive, both from the storm and the fire. The main house only needs some window repairs. The internal damage is all cosmetic.”
Malcolm frowned as though he didn’t understand why he needed to set aside a couple of hours. “So fix the main building first?”
“This is where it gets tricky. If you ignore the lodge, then it’s likely to become further damaged. I’ve had a team of guys out there relocating anything of historic significance, but we can’t get a removal truck out there because of the snow.” The snow and the storms were going to make all repairs dicey. Particularly if a storm hit while they were only halfway through a roof. It was possible for all the work to be undone. “I have a plan.” Which Malcolm would no doubt go through line by line. “And if you want the details and input, we need to sit down.”
Or you can leave me alone and tell me to get on with it.
Laughter and squealing rang on the stone walls. A dark-haired little girl wearing a burning T-shirt and track pants ran past them, holding a fireball.
Perrin glanced at Malcolm. Burning three-year-olds was not his department. Malcolm stared at the girl as if he had no idea what to do, and she glanced back, grinning.
