This is book six in Lara Adrian's Midnight Breed series and I couldn`t put it down. Following events set up in the last book VEIL OF MIDNIGHT this instalment just takes off, with its exciting and suspense filled storyline. There is plenty of angst filled romance here too and several ongoing subplots and POV's which all manage to come together for one explosive ending. Fans of the series will be thrilled as we get to revisit past members of the `Order' and their `Breedmates' who all have significant roles within this story. There is also a reunited lovers theme between our couple which is my favourite type of romance.
Andreas Reichen's character has been around in a secondary role for several books now. But ever since the massacre took place within his Darkhaven compound killing his entire family, this Vampire has been hell bent on extracting revenge from the man responsible. Andreas agony over this event and his need for retribution has also brought out a deadly power within him, one that he had tried to keep hidden. Andreas can physically manifest into fire, burning with a heat so intense he blazes everything in his path and now he's coming for Wilhelm Roth.
His search for Roth ironically takes him to the home of his enemy's wife and Andre's former love Claire. He has never been able to forget the beautiful Breedmate or their fated love affair. Once reunited this couple is powerless to stop their mutual attraction even if it means breaking the sanctity of her blood bond to Roth. Events soon transpire which see this couple on the run as Claire learns of her absentee husband's true nature and Andreas tries to recover from his ever increasing bouts of pyrokenetics. He's finding it harder and harder to control the fire and Claire fears for his life knowing that he won't give up this quest for revenge even if it means sacrificing himself in the process.
As a last resort they contact the Order and are flown to their compound in Boston. That's when things get really interesting; as all the storylines converge into a combined hunt for Roth and his evil partner Dragos thereby placing the entire group in a lethal trap. Andreas may very well be their only hope of escape but he's become so blind with vengeance that he can no longer control the fire, this time the inferno may consume them all.
This series seems to be either hit or miss for me, ASHES OF MIDNIGHT is a definite hit. The conflict, erotic romance and gunplay carries throughout and builds to a level of nail-biting, page turning suspense as we approach the thrilling finale. I do suggest at least reading book 5 before starting here but alternately I could recommend the entire Midnight Breed series. Cheers.
1-Kiss Of Midnight, 2-Kiss Of Crimson, 3-Midnight Awakening, 4-Midnight Rising, 5-Veil Of Midnight, 6-Ashes Of Midnight.

The biggest problem I have with this book is at about the half way mark, the hero and heroine commit adultery. Yeah, she's mated to a really awful and cruel vamp, but it's still adultery! That just turned me off completely.

This series of books has made me a fan. I enjoyed the relationship between Claire and Andreas, although I have to admit it wasn't number one on my list of books. As always Lara Adrian gives a indepth, hot twist to her books. I just found out of the five I've read this is probably my least favorite. It was good, but the relationship wasn't as sexy as the rest.
