Resumen del Editor

After narrowly escaping fiery death in Out of the Flames, San Francisco police detective Manhattan Sloane and DEA Agent Finn Harper embark on something even more perilous: bringing to justice all those responsible for the murder of Sloane's wife, and rekindling the love they had for each other as teens. Both have the potential to burn them badly - and scar Sloane's grieving stepdaughter, Reagan.

Even as Sloane rediscovers that life without love is no life at all, she is learning that parenthood - especially single parenting - means making sacrifices. Can she have it all? Finn and Reagan and the badge she has worn with honor for almost nine years? Or will a cartel drug lord bent on revenge force her to not only betray her conscience - but also fail to save the ones she loves?

Can’t wait for the next one !

Not sure how many more there are going to be but if Lori Prince is going to read them I’m in

Another Great Listen

Stacy Lynn Miller is excellent. This one kept me on the edge of my seat! Strong plot, great characters and fast paced. Lori Prince always great as a narrator. Can't wait until the next one!

Great book!

This was even better than the previous book about Sloane and Finn. The ending was bittersweet because of Sloane and Erick. Hope that gets resolved in the next book!

Action and Drama!

This series, A Manhattan Sloane Thriller could totally become a movie or TV show! The book From the Ashes starts off from the previous book, Out of the Flames, which was great because I was able to jump right into it. Sloane and Finn have amazing chemistry and I can’t wait for another thrilling adventure with these ladies. Definitely recommend!

Better than the first

I liked it better than the first one. it didn't feel as rushed and choppy as the first one.

Good solid book

I love the characters and the performance of the narrator is good. Definitely recommend! Looking forward to the next book in the series.

Great.

I really enjoyed From the Ashes. It's a great follow up to Out of the Flames.

Is it a crime story or a love story

This ambitious tale tried to blend bringing a drug cartel to justice and a new love in a blended family. The result is a crime story that lacks distinctive details to make it thrilling. It seems odd that when making final battle with the kingpin neither detective thinks to protect their family in advance adding another plot to the story. While the two detectives come to acknowledge that they love each other, their relationship is never fleshed out and there is none of that casual and ordinary dialogue where they reveal who they are and exactly how they enjoy each other. There is an obligatory sex scene at the end that falls kind of flat. I think this would have been a better book if the author had picked one story or the other to fully characterize. As it is , both stories seen somewhat lacking.

Couldn’t get past the narration

The narration was more than I could take. Mexican accents bordered on offensive. The voices of the other characters were distracting. I can’t even rate the story since I stopped listening less than an hour into it.
