The deck is stacked against Rhys Stevens... His best friend stole the girl he loves, he's pretty sure he has to commit treason, and if things go how he thinks they will, he's going to have to kill a couple of people. And that's the good news...
Aurelia Constantine hasn't been one for rules. Don't run, don't be loud, do what you're told... If she listened to all of her mother's rules, she might as well hand over her life right now. But Aurelia is off to make her own life, even if she has to step on some toes to do it.
Plans are derailed, blood is spilled, and when the dust settles... the war has just begun.
Annie Anderson is the author of the international bestselling Rogue Ethereal series. A United States Air Force veteran, Annie pens fast-paced Paranormal Romance and Urban Fantasy novels filled with strong, snarky heroines and a boatload of magic. When she takes a break from writing, she can be found binge-watching The Magicians, flirting with her husband, wrangling children, or bribing her cantankerous dogs to go on a walk.
Literally could not put this book down once I started reading. Excitement, betrayal, love, lust, loss, and so much more. On the edge of my seat and cannot wait to start book 1 of the Ashes to Ashes series Scattered Ashes.
The author let me sign up for this newsletter and I got to read this book and OMG I was so surprised by how shocking and fasted pasted this was! It was my kind of trashy read and i need the next one! Idk why but it's so addictive!
A novella that gives you the back story of book 1: Scattered Ashes. I love Aurelia and Rhys's story and this series. Get these books if you love paranormal, or a good love story with some kick ass heroines and heroes.
This is just a nibble of this amazing delicious paranormal story. In this prequel you find out exactly who Aurelia and Rhys are to each other. How this relationship of hatred/life began. It's addicting and oh so tempting to read the next books!! Which i definitely will!!!

I was given this book by the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
3 Stars
This is an extremely short novella and prequel to the Ashes to Ashes series. This is also the first book I've read by Annie Anderson. Welcome to the hero and heroine's, Rhys and Aurelia, backstory to Scattered Ashes. The first few pages included a glossary of pertinent terms used in the series, which was invaluable as they're used immediately and throughout the book.
I gave this book three stars, mostly due to it's length and the large cliffhanger at the end. I expected it to be short due to it being a novella, but I would classify it as a short story. It also left a Grand Canyon sized cliffhanger for the unwary. I would've liked there to be more of a story, rather than what basically amounted to a prologue. However, it was well written and vivid in its detail.
