Publisher's summary

A product of his past, Black spends half his time saving lives and the other half taking them. Every day, a hard choice must be made and he's the man to make it. Long ago, he vowed to never love again; one-night stands with a willing body was all he ever needed. But along came Quill, and Black's life is irrevocably changed. He never expects something as simple as Quill's persistence to alter the way he not only sees the world, but how he lives it.

Quill has bad taste in men and equally horrible luck. Growing up wasn't easy, surviving is even harder. When his past and present collide, he's convinced he'll finally witness his own destruction. But when an unlikely antihero steps in to protect him, his life is turned on its head. He's spent months flirting with the man of his dreams and hoping he'd take notice. But it turns out, being on Black's radar isn't all it's cracked up to be, and his idea of protection varies greatly from Quill's.

Unknowingly sharing the same goal - burying their own pasts deeper than the fires of hell can reach - they're both unaware that jumping into that fire will do more than ignite their feelings, it could lead to their own demise.

Contains mature themes.

Amazing!!

We finally got Black’s story. Quill is the perfect partner for him. His personality shines through the pages. His inner dialogue cracks me up and his strength is admirable.

This story might be my next favorite after Snow’s story.

Hmmm

Pretty good. Not quite like the other books in the series so was pleasantly surprised by not knowing what to expect.

The narrators we're both great. I wish book 5 was on Audible already. It's not so I have to actually read it. It's already on my Kindle.

This was a very good series. I liked the first book and ended up reading all the books back to back. Every one is well worth a credit.

as good as the ebook

The story is always 4 or 5 stars, because if I wouldn't like the story as ebook, I wouldn't listen to the audiobook.

The performance from the narrator is also very important for me. I can't listen to a lot, because my English as a non-native-speaker isn't so perfect to follow a whole story over hours, when the narrator speaks too fast or too sloppy. Normally I have to SEE the person, who is talking to me in English. It took me a little bit, to come into the narrator, but at the end, it worked. I only have to take a few breaks between. I'm just not yet finish with the book, but I listen enough to give a review.

PLEASE READ MY RATING SYSTEM!!!

To my ratings:

5* - very very good
it's like an A+

4* - very good and will be often re-listening
it's like an A

3* - it's more then a one-time-listening.
it's like a B

New fan

I recently discovered Davidson King, and I’m finding I’m a real fan of her work.
Even though these books are darker (at times quite dark), she sneaks in those moments of real humor and I am surprised by the laugh bursting out of me. She is quite the skilled writer, crafting characters, places, and events that feel gritty and real.

Neither of these narrators is a favorite of mine, but somehow, with Davidson King’s words, they are perfect.

Brilliant addition to the series

I loved this story. We finally got some background info on Black and how he began his reign of justice/terror in Haven Hart. With Quill being the focus of the book, it was quite a fun ride. It was dangerous and sad, but also hopeful and sweet.

Another perfect addition to this series.

Joel Leslie and Philip Alces both have such distinctive voices and I've loved that this entire series has been the two of them, teamed up. Philip Alces nails the domineering, powerful Black while Joel Leslie gives lightness and humor to Quill. Brilliant performances by both.

From These Ashes(Haven Hart Book 4)by Davidson King. I just loved Black and Quill's characters. This story develops nicely. A good combination of world building and character development. I enjoyed this story. Looking forward to the next book.
The Narrator's Philip Alces and Joel Leslie did a fantastic job bringing these characters and story to life.

Love, Love, Love!!!!

I loved this book! Quill and Black are magic together! I spent so much time smiling at Quill’s snark and his banter with Black. And Black.... can you say smoking hot?! The narration was perfection! I could have gotten this series for free on Kindle Unlimited, but I just had to purchase the audiobooks because the narrator’s are that good! This series consistently gets great reviews and they are well deserved. If you are on the fence go for it!!!
