Burning Ash
Forgotten Brotherhood Book Three
by N.J. Walters
Genre:
Paranormal Romance
No
one is more surprised than Asher, one of the oldest vampires on
Earth, that he's attracted to vamp hunter Jo Radcliffe. She's smart,
a talented slayer, and she's gorgeous. Something about her pulls at
him, like no one ever has before. For a man, whose name strikes fear
in everyone––this is something new and intriguing. And quite
possibly deadly, if she discovers his secret.
Jo
has two things in common with the handsome Asher––they are both
slayers and someone is messing with them in a
very-much-trying-to-kill-them way. She's not so happy about joining
forces with a dude she doesn't know. But he's sexy as hell and really
good at his job as one of the Forgotten Brotherhood, whose business
it is to execute misbehaving paranormals.
She
knows she's bait in a larger plot to harm Asher and the Brotherhood.
And there is nothing he won't do, no line he won't cross, to keep her
safe––which may be the weakness that destroys them both.

My Review:
A chance meeting at a vampire gathering brings vampire Asher and vampire hunter Jo together. They eventually realize ending up in the same location at the same time may not be random at all. Asher and Jo then try to figure out exactly who is behind their mysterious emails. Coming up empty, Asher wracks his brain and uses his intense hacking skills to trace the email address that keeps contacting him, Jo, and others anonymously. His hacking prowess unwittingly begins a chain reaction and more lives become endangered.
Just when I thought this series couldn't get any better (it's magnificent, btw), N.J. Walters goes and ups the game again! I think Asher is my favorite member of the Brotherhood. Hot vampire - check. Compassionate - check. Protective - check. Sense of humor - check. He's been around for centuries and, while he's taken many lovers, no one wiggled their way into his heart until Jo Radcliffe.
Jo is a bit standoffish. She's been a loner for a very long time and knows the only person she can depend on is herself. When she comes face-to-face with sex on a stick she fights the attraction from the bossy, sexy man as long as she can. His willingness to protect her and take care of her eventually wins her over. They work well together but when events escalate, she's not sure they are meant to be.
Burning Ash is an amazing paranormal novel. The author provides a story with more twists, turns, and events the reader won't see coming, keeping the reader completely engaged, and I was. I enjoyed the path Asher and Jo had to travel in order to get to their ultimate destinations. I loved how the continued storyline makes a dramatic collision in Burning Ash. Someone is out to destroy the Forgotten Brotherhood from the inside out and the attempts continue to increase. It might be time for the Brotherhood, who keep themselves at a distance from one another, to come together to fight what's coming.
The author crafted a unique world and a story that was intriguing, and full of mystery, suspense, action, and wonderful characters. The series is full of unconventional heroes and the strong heroines they fall for. I was easily drawn into the book and found myself immersed. I look forward to the next book. While each book is listed as a stand alone, they all do tie together and I highly recommend you read them in order.
I was provided a copy of this book to read.
