Review: Eyes of Ember by Rebecca Ethington


Joclyn is in hiding, hunted by the man she still desperately loves. Ryland is gone, his mind erased, no memory of Joclyn remains. But, Joclyn’s heart desperately begs her to hold out hope. While, in reality the black eyed monster that possesses him, attempts to kill her over and over.

If it wasn’t for Ilyan, Joclyn would be dead by now.

Ilyan. The man who once stalked her, is now Joclyn’s protector, the only thing she has left. He protects Joclyn from the men who seek to end her life, and while she is haunted by dreams where Ryland begs her to break the bond between them.

Ilyan is there. Always there.

Ilyan trains and prepares her, teaching her everything she needs to know in the hope that one day she can avenge Ryland, if not protect herself from him.

And then there is her father.

The man who has never been there, is suddenly responsible for everything. And who he is has made Joclyn into something she never wanted to be. The Silnỳ.

My Thoughts...

So far this is the BEST series I've read ALL FLIPPIN YEAR!! The story went in a whole new direction that I never expected and I LOVED IT! Yes, there is a love triangle, and yes I loved it and this book has changed me as a reader. I haven't loved a series this much since that time I read the whole Twilight series in a week! Yeah...I'm rambling but if you take anything away from this review it's that THIS WHOLE FREAKIN SERIES IS AMAZING...keep you up all night, can't get it off my mind kind of amazing!!

The whole plot of this book is non-stop action. I clutched my Kindle as I was reading hoping and praying (and spewing a few choice words) as I was reading. I devoured all 380 pages of this story so quickly because IT WAS JUST THAT GREAT!

 Favorite things:

  1.  Ilyan - I didn't think it was possible but yeah I'm Team Ilyan! ❤ 
  2.  Pacing - Edge of your seat pacing which worked perfect for the story. 
  3.  The World building - It's even more in depth in this story, I loved all of the details! 


Well... I'm off to read book three Scorched Treachery!

The Last of the Firedrakes Blog Tour- Character Interview & a HUGE giveaway!!

Farah sits down with Aurora Firedrake in Silverthorne Castle! ( Conversation between Farah and Aurora. Farah will be in blue, Aurora in pink. ) The valley ahead is covered in wild, green grass. Sprays of pinks, purples, yellows, and reds undulate down into the waiting meadows of the flower-filled valley beyond. Even though I know what Avalonia looks like, every time I visit, its beauty astounds me. I pass colorful fields, green pastures, working farms, massive estates and small villages that speckle the countryside, as I ride towards Silverthorne Castle, where I will be interviewing Aurora today. In the center of the valley a little hill rises up before me. At the very top lies a magnificent castle, its tall towers glistening in the sunlight as they stretch effortlessly towards the azure sky. Pristine white flags, each one decorated with a single bluebell flutter from the castle turrets.  Around it a huge walled town slopes down the hill in concentric circles and s...
