About this item

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, C
áel, 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…

5.0 out of 5 stars action packed and full of character development
Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2024
Tessa Hale is one of my favorite authors and I love her PNR/RH series. Book 2 picks up right where twilight of embers ended, so we don’t miss a beat.

Midnight of Ashes is a perfect read and will leave you unprepared for the ending.
Hayden has come to terms with finding out she’s a dragon with five mates, and we get to watch each relationship grow in this installment. We already know that Knox, Cillian, and Cael love her, but her relationships with Easton and Maddox are strained.
As unexpected circumstances arise, we get a chance to understand both men’s backstories and traumas that hold them from committing fully. Learning about their history allows the reader, and Hayden, to sympathize with them. It also allows the relationship between Hayden and Easton/Maddox to develop more naturally as they start to accept the bond, instead of insta-love.

Without spoiling anything, here are my favorite quotes:
“I was going to have to learn to live with my raging demons. Because my heart chose her, even though my brain told me she’d bring me to ruin. I’d just have to go down in the flames.”

“I wanted to go home. Home. The mountain mansion really was starting to feel that way. My safe space with people who made me protected.”

Tessa introduces a new side character(Brix), who’s interested in Hayden’s friend Wren, and leaves the reader curious about the interaction between them. Personally, I was so invested in the back story (seeing as Wren runs away as soon as she spots Brix) that I didn’t even realize the book was about to end. I had no idea I was about to be left hanging.

I hope I did this book justice with this review, because if I could my review would’ve just been me squealing and showing you everything I highlighted.

Tessa- great read, 5/5, I cannot wait to read the 3rd book!
