Midnight of Ashes by Tessa Hale

4 Stars

One moment changed everything. A split-second decision to try to save one of my five dragon mates nearly cost my life. And now nothing is the same.

Knox, Cáel, and Cillian treat me like I’ll break at any moment, while Maddox keeps a careful distance. And Easton won’t look at me at all.

We’re supposed to be fated by the stars, but we’re falling apart. Enemies still lurk around every corner, but the guys vow we’ll be ready when they come.

But evil has a way of striking when you least expect it. And none of us are ready for who might be pulling the strings…

Starts right where the first one ended. Some secrets are revealed, and more are introduced. The building of relationships was nice and I loved the connection between mates. The give and take was also nice to read. It does end on another cliffhanger. Not a bad thing but something I’ve noticed with all of Tessa Hale’s books is the FMC is always in danger at the end of the book until the final book. It’s not bad but it is something I’ve noticed she does.

Twilight of Ember by Tessa Hale

4 Stars

I’d always wondered what it would be like to have a family. I just never expected to find it with five mysterious strangers who have more secrets than I could ever imagine.

Getting a scholarship to Evergreen University and majoring in premed means I need to keep my head down and focus on my studies. But campus is full of distractions…

The football god with his golden retriever charm. The tortured one with his vicious tongue. The broken boy with his determined protectiveness. The merciless billionaire with a penchant for spoiling me. And the genius professor with his brilliant mind.

They make me feel like I belong for the first time since my parents were murdered. And when they touch me, my whole world sparks to flame.

But they have enemies. Those who would give anything to harm what they hold dear. And while they’ll do whatever it takes to keep me safe, sometimes falling in love will put you right in the line of fire…

I really enjoyed this book and immediately started the second book. I liked the Hayden was unaware of what she was and who her mates were. It flowed nicely but does end on a cliffhanger ending but this is pretty standard for Tessa Hale.
