About this book
Guilt is her prison. Duty is his chain. Together, they must break free—or be buried by the past.
Faced with guilt that consumes her, Thea channels her exile from Heaven into ancient tombs and unsolved mysteries. When her best friend begins losing her feathers—and with them, her shot at redemption—Thea races to uncover the truth before time runs out.
In the shadowed jungles of Honduras, Centurion Ma’lak has one job: guard the tomb that holds the key to his dragon shifter clan’s survival. But the dragon Illusion cloaking its entrance won’t yield to brute force. Then Thea storms his excavation site with too many questions and not nearly enough fear.
He has secrets to protect. She has sins she can’t forgive.
But the pull between them is undeniable, and the Codex buried in the tomb may hold more than salvation—it could bind their fates forever.
To save a soul, protect a people, and unravel a centuries-old puzzle, Thea and Ma’lak must face the ghosts that haunt them… or risk losing everything, even each other.
CW: Death of Children, violence and gore, burning and fire, fratricide, survivor’s guilt, Spice, addiction, mental illness, eating disorders, and body hatred.

I signed up to be an ARC reader at the beginning of the series. Normally I'm not much of a slow burn kind of girl but after I finishes the first book in the series I loved it! The way the characters developed and grew was wonderful and seeing the love grow was beautiful. When I received the email the second book was available for those that ARC read the first I jumped right for it! Once again it didn't disappoint. Another beautiful slow burn with a great storyline and character development....

Flames and Ashes hooked me in with the plot! Dragons and fallen angels was something I had to read. The book had just enough mystery around the main story line and the characters that I didnt put it down.

I had the privilege of reading an advanced copy of this book! I really loved it! I got sucked in right away! I enjoyed the pace of the adventure and love story. It's a great continuation of the first book, transitioning to others as main characters for the story while maintaining the overall storyline. I can't wait to read the next book! )

They decide to work together and Mal'ek helps Thea work through some of her issues as they succumb to their attraction to one another. I enjoyed this book the further I got into it. It had been awhile...

Flames and Ashes is a fascinating story. Thea is a fallen Angel and Ma'lak is a Centurion dragon in Honduras. Flames and Ashes is the second book in the series. The storyline is so interesting. I loved how Jessica portrayed the characters. Thea goes to Honduras to help the dragons find the codex they need. You'll enjoy every moment. It's an exciting and fun read.
