In Ashes of Midnight, we travel to Germany to meet Andreas
Reichen, a Darkhaven breed vampire, and Claire Roth, his longtime love.
Now a breedmate to Andreas’s enemy, Claire is caught between her feelings for Andreas, and her loyalties to her mate. We learn the history of Andreas’s hatred toward Claire’s mate—reasons that are connected to Andreas’s loss of his loved ones, and the demise of an entire Darkhaven community.
But as we travel between two continents, darker mysteries are revealed, as we discover Andreas’s powers … powers that Andreas himself, as well as the breed warriors who are now involved, are only beginning to understand.

I enjoyed this book, and loved getting to know the broken
and tormented Andreas on his path to redemption. I enjoyed learning about the
history that led Claire to Andreas, torn by a past that was derailed, and
tortured by a love long lost. I wanted a little more of the warriors, but still
enjoyed the focus on the Darkhaven.
