From the ashes kindle series com A few years ago I discovered a book titled Caged by this author I fell in love with the characters and the story and read them all until the series was finished last year I have read this book twice now once a few months ago and again yesterday I thoroughly enjoyed myself both times And that s because for a first novel in a series Amber has exceeded my expectations and has written a book that is just as good as Caged if not better That s something I never thought I would say Piper Jones has made her home with the vampire enforcers of New York City Taken in a couple of years before by the King of the vampires she had never really had a home until now When vampire enforcer Merc comes home after a long absence Piper is inexplicably drawn to him as he is to her But Piper has very dangerous enemies and ends up leaving to hide out in Alaska in the middle of nowhere It s not long before she realizes that she didn t leave the supernatural world in New York instead she has moved in close to a werewolf pack one that wants to befriend her And just so we re clear I am not going to mention what supernatural creature that Piper is or isn t That s just part of the mystery in this story. Book from the ashes pdf The characters in this book were pretty incredible at least I thought so Piper has to be one of the strongest characters as far as inner strength that I have read in quite some time She has been through a lot and continues to persevere even as is thrown at her Merc was perfect as a handsome enigmatic vampire with a tortured past Knox the pack leader in Alaska was my personal favorite of the group He s down to earth and caring and seems to be a very sweet man And he loves his pack and treats them well It doesn t hurt that he s mega good looking Rounding out the group are Kat Piper s best friend and a werewolf from New York City as well as Dean and Jase vampire enforcer brothers also from NYC that have anointed themselves as Piper s protectors and honorary big brothers I also should mention a character named Grizz he doesn t have a big part but I absolutely loved him and look forward to seeing him in future books He was definitely the comic relief I will leave it to the reader to discover why. Book from the ashes review This story was filled with suspense and life and death moments Whether it was happening in NYC or Alaska the action never lagged nor did the development of the characters or story line It s also a romance and probably the most sexual of any books by this author And yes I am being intentionally vague about the story line due to spoilers One thing From the Ashes was a pretty perfect title of this book based on the story and I thought the cover was pretty great as well. Book from the ashes by jesse thistle In the end I came away from the book both times I read it wanting I would like the second book as early as yesterday Amber has proven once again to me why I enjoy her work not that I ever doubted her I adored this story and highly recommend it to both paranormal romance fans as well as urban fantasy readers as long as they are adults Adult due to sexual situations and violence I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for a fair and honest review Urban Fantasy Paranormal Romance YA Mystery suspense Reading the synopsis of this book I was hopeful that I had found another good series from this author Ultimately I was disappointed The mc of this story is Piper Orphaned at a young age no family or friends She s an outcast in the supernatural world who is eventually taken in by the vampire king Here she meets Jase and Dean vampire enforcers who become her surrogate brothers. From the ashes kindle series This book had potential but I found it lacking on character background main and supporting No detail given as to why she was an outcast or why certain supernaturals wanted to cause her harm Not to mention I prefer a mc a little less whiny I give this book 1 star which is really for the author because I ve read some of her other books and am hoping this is just one bad apple in the bunch Urban Fantasy Paranormal Romance YA Mystery suspense Well well besides the fact that I already stated that this story is amazing and very satisfying I just want to say wow There are alpha males left and right in this story and Merc and Knox are my favorite If I was Piper I would have my way with both but I know that won t be the case and at the end of the day she will have to chose one over the other probably even none O yes knowing the evil mastermind at hand she will twist the plot even further I love urban fantasy but this story had something in it that swallowed me in It delivered what my heart and mind wanted even when I didn t know what this was Fascinating huh I thought so too It has romance heartthrob kind of romance It was so fun to read and I have to say that I m hardly amused by anything Action tons of action the kind that keeps you on your toes Most important fact is that it doesn t drag It goes straight to the point and that s one of the things I loved the most about it I had high hopes for this story and I ve been waiting for it for so long that I was elated when it delivered. From the ashes bookaffinity A must read if I will say so I love the characters but definitely Piper makes this story come together Piper has powers beyond any knowledge but she doesn t even know it Could NY provide the source of power that she needs That was a big spoiler she s a magnet of trouble I feel that she shares that quality with Ruby from Caged and Khara from Unborn but she s far powerful than them I would say that she s a Ruby on steroids I love when the story has a powerful strong woman driven by the bad circumstances that have shaped who she is especially when she s surrounded by strong handsome swoon worthy males wiggling eyebrows I would rate it worth than 5 stars if I could Urban Fantasy Paranormal Romance YA Mystery suspense Heroine is TSTL Quite possibly one of the most eye roll inducing books I ve ever read One star for the cover only Urban Fantasy Paranormal Romance YA Mystery suspense 47%I m throwing in the towel I m trying so hard to like the heroine but I can t I can t sympathize with her and I ll admit I m a bit annoyed at how weak she is Maybe it s setting up for her growth throughout the series I don t know But I don t care enough to find out Urban Fantasy Paranormal Romance YA Mystery suspense Great cover Alas I did judge it by that But it turned out to be a new adult love triangle without closure. From the ashes kindle series The pace was so fast that it felt like a novella but it kept going and going I kept reading to find out the mystery of the h s power but the emotional whiplash confusing time jumps contradictions and insta love moved me to read other reviews And my irritation with the heroine and writing isn t just me Once I found out that her forever bond isn t forever in fact she gets it on with another guy I gave up I guess I won t find out just what she is why supernaturals hate her or who she ends up with but I m not tore up about it.

Book from the ashes by jesse thistle what have you MC I understand abuse believe me I do I also understand that when you ve grown up your entire life being shoved around and as an outcast you cannot help but feel victimized And you should cuz you are a victim I get that I just don t get is when you re given a chance to be something or do something about it how do you not make it work to your advantage Piper is magical however she does not know what she is or does not have any active powers She grew up being hated by the supernatural community which we re not clear on as to why except she is different She is saved by the Vampire King therefore put under his protection and surrounded by the vampire enforcers who are in a nutshell badass So what does she do NOTHING I mean nothing except playing the victim card I am weak I am powerless everyone hates me I am clueless Heaven forbid she learns to fight or protect herself Or figure out ways to find out about her magic Nooooo that would be too good She does not even have a job So I am still confused on what she does ALL.
