The Wildfire series was a line of young adult romance paperbacks published by Scholastic beginning in the late 1970s. Each book is a standalone story, typically following a teenage girl through a first romance or the social pressures of high school. The series was part of a broader trend of YA romance imprints during that era, alongside lines like First Love from Silhouette and Sweet Dreams from Bantam.

The books were written by multiple authors and published at a rapid pace through the mid-1980s. Titles like Christy, Beautiful Girl, and Senior Class give a sense of the subject matter. The series eventually expanded to over forty titles. While the individual books are short and formulaic by design, they hold nostalgic value for readers who grew up with them, and used copies remain popular with collectors of vintage YA paperbacks.
