⭐️ 4.5 "Perfect Trio" Stars ⭐️
In complete honesty, the gorgeous cover of Among Ash and Ember is what caught my attention first. Then I read the blurb and it sounded really intriguing so I dived into this story with excitement. Dani René delivers a truly poignant story with a sexy undertone and uses an exquisite prose that got to me deeply. I’ll keep the plotline as vague as possible, because I don’t want to give too much of the intrigue away. It’s best to discover all the mystery behind our three main characters on your own.
"I’ll never try to break you, Kitten. I may try to tame you, tamper your heat, but I’ll never extinguish your fire. And you know why?... Because I love it when you burn me.”
Katerina Nielsen is crumbling under the pain of losing her whole family a couple years earlier. She’s trying to stay afloat, but her future isn’t as bright as it once was. When she meets Ash, it seems her life takes an optimistic turn. This enigmatic man is cold, but sexy and so imposing. His mouth is so dirty and appealing! I was easily enamoured by this intricate hero. If it wasn’t enough to get this sexy specimen of a man, his brother Ember is another fascinating character. He’s the the complete opposite of Ash, but he also shares a special connection with Katerina. Both brothers in their own ways brings something different but essential to Kat’s slow recovery from grief. Between mystery and secrets, we navigate between these three broken characters trying to heal.
"I can’t draw my gaze away from her. Each movement is like a melody, and I fantasize about how I could make music with her body. A gentle caress, a soft kiss, a long, languid lick, and a ferocious nibble."
Among Ash and Ember was a pleasant surprise! I was spellbound by the beautiful words, intense emotions and multi-faceted protagonists filling the pages of this story. I cried a lot, but my heart also leapt out of my chest from the hopeful feelings and powerful sexually charged scenes. I can only recommend this tear-jerker, yet powerfully beautiful novel!!!
