Ashley is the author of the award-winning Kentucky Blood series, a gritty, uncompromising Southern Gothic saga that explores complex characters and raw emotion. Raised in the rural enclaves of western Kentucky, he survived for 11 years in Tokyo’s cutthroat corporate world and now splits his time between countries. He’s always had a soft spot for the bad guys in stories and hopes his books will make you feel the same.

The Battle of the Smokehouse by Ashley Thomas Sheikh
"Fast-paced and unusual in structure. Could there be less explicit content? Sure. Still just as raw, brutal, and graphic as the first book. And still, I couldn't put it down.

"WARNING: BRUTAL ENDING. I knew something bad was gonna happen, but not THAT. The ending physically affected me. I really wanted more of Rhonda in this book but looks like we're gonna have to wait until Book 3. Still, I'm digging the 70s timeline now." Read more of this review »
