I dance to forget, but I always rememberI taunt and tease, it’s why they’re hereThe spotlights, the sleek silver poleThe stage is mine, I own the crowdUntil he walked inDark eyes pierce meA devilish smirk scorches meMemories brand meOne night was all I gave himOne night wasn’t what he wantedWas it fate? Was it destiny?Only time will tell… tell…
It’s time to rise…
From the Ashes.

I didn’t know where to go with this review. This book took me for a short little ride and then stopped just when it was about to hit the highway. I need the rest of Kael and Skyla’s story.
Kael has been in a funk ever since he lost his muse. Never did he think his inspiration was at a club swinging on a pole. Skyla needed somewhere where she could forget her past and be in charge of her future. She chose to be a stripper and felt empowered by doing so. But when a man comes in and starts taking charge of some of her life, she feels like she knows him. Will she recognize Kael from her past?
These two are so freaking impressive as characters. I loved them. I am jumping right into the rest of the Forbidden Series.
Skye has a pretty good life now. She makes her own choices. But it wasn’t always like that. She has good and bad memories. She was in love once. Gone and shut her heart down. Kael used to work at the family business but he didn’t like it and that is were he me Skye. He finds her again but she has no idea who he is. But it all comes to light, she finally realizes who he is. Her lost love.
Dark and erotic story that just sucked me right into the story! Skyla and Kaela story is just wow! He is an artist, she is an erotic dancer. So many emotions, desire, hope, dear, and anger. This book had it all! I’m just speechless! Amazing book! I need more!
This was a super sexy novella, an introduction to the Forbidden Series. This story features Skyla, a sex worker, and Kael, an artist. Wow! This story had me wanting more-it’s a perfect introduction to get me hooked on these people, their histories, their stories, and this series.
I enjoyed the characters so much. They were unapologetically who they were, and the story was filthy hot. Looking forward to the next book in the series.
I am voluntarily reviewing this book.
I Love these characters they are raw with so much feeling and they just capture every single thought and I cant get enough and the feelings and suspense just WOW. Skyla and Dakota best friends and are amazing but Kael a determined man and he gets what he wants and that is Skyla and they set the pages on fire and I love how hes doing it and getting her attention. What a great start and so well written it leaves you craving more and more.
From the Ashes is a brilliant debut from the incredible Dani Rene, with just enough intrigue to have you hooked. (I’ve already bought the next 4 in the series!) All the characters seem to have their own personal story to tell and I can’t wait to dive in! Kael and Skyla are so intensely bound to each other and their chemistry is out of this world. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for them next!
From the Ashes was a great novella. This was Skyla and Kael’s story. It is a quick and dark read, that I was hooked from the beginning. The ending left me wanting more and now i’m going to have to read Crave! I would recommend this story!
A dancer with DARK past, secrets, lies, STEAMY scenes MFF, MFMF, and others.
Ms. Rene once again created scarred characters with the past that were separated and then joined once again at the club! It will be also deliciously dark and forbidden!
This is a fast and Steamy novella the introduced you to the forbidden series. Skyla is a gorgeous red headed exotic dancer at the inferno trying to put her past behind her. Kael is a former Dom and an Artist. Their pasts are connected. It’s been five years so when they bump into each other again at Inferno will Skyla recognize Kael? The one who got away. This may be short but make no mistake the sizzle factor is off the chains!! I loved this couple and who doesn’t love a sexy tattooed Dominant. Told in dual POV.
This was my first Dani Rene book and it didn’t disappoint! Skyla and Kael are scorching! From the first paragraph I was hooked and couldn’t wait to read their story. I am looking forward to the continuation with Crave! Dani Rene really knows how to write erotica and I loved reading every last word!
This is my first read by this author and it’s just oh so good. The author has given us a quick read, a novella, to whet our appetite and she sure did that.
This is Skyla and Kaels story. I’m so looking forward to reading more of this series as I really like these two. The chemistry between them is hot.
I’m off now to read Crave 🙂
First of all, I know I was reading this book outside but the temperature went way up while reading it! Secondly, this is a delicious read! Must Read!
WOW!!! I practically inhaled this book I got through it so fast. I was hooked from the very first word and ready to throw my kindle when it ended. I need more of this hot couple.
The chemistry between Kael & Skyla is explosive. The past that connects them is dark and dangerous but in it they found each other. Neither could share their feelings, that wasn’t how it worked, bodies and souls ripped apart.
Their story may be short but it grabs you tight, sucks you in and won’t let go. I can’t wait to see where this hot duo end up.
Goodness me this is one hot read. She was trained to be submissive by a kind and gentle soul. Then he turned her over to a monster. Now she dances and has sex but her heart is protected, nice and safe. This author unravels a twisted dark tale of a second chance at love for a pair of unhappy souls brought back together. This story is deliciously hot and very steamy. A wonderful dance into the forbidden, few will survive and the special shall rise from the ashes. . . again.
I absolutely loved the Forbidden Series! From the Ashes gives us a glimpse of Skyla’s life after Covet. Who is this mystery man who desires her to the point of distraction? Why is Skyla drawn to him? This book gave me so many emotional moments – Skyla and Dakota’s friendship and how they took care of each other, Axel – man, that guy surely needs his own book, he’s so hot! The sexy scenes in this book were so scintillating and visceral. I felt like I was there watching them. This book is so needed if you’re going to read Covet! You’ll love all the characters (or hate them, depending on which ones!).
Loved,loved,loved From the Ashes!
This book is dark and light.
It’s sexy and sweet.
So much in this novella!
Kael and Skyla both have painful hard pasts.
Both are trying to find a future.
When Kael finds Skyla he’s determined to never let go.
Skyla has been hurt by love and has closed her heart.
Is Kael’s love,determination and dominance enough to shatter Skyla’s walls?
Ms. Rene does an outstanding job in From the Ashes!
The characters are well developed,interesting and will have you falling in love with them.
The storyline is intriguing and gripping and will leave you wanting more!
Ms. Rene has a way with words and knows how to make them come alive.
The way she puts together words and sentences turn into pure brilliance!
Can’t wait for more of Kael and Skyla
Holy Hotness!! That was a smoking hot read! From the Ashes had me looking over my shoulder to make sure no one was seeing what I was reading, knowing that if they did, they would be saying what a dirty little bitch you are. lol. I like reads to be dark and hot and this one did not disappoint. I loved the whole story line. This was my first read from this author and I absolutely loved her writing style.
Happy Reading Everyone!!!
The prologue sets the mood for all this story is about, goosebumps in the most beautiful way and then we head into the story of Kael and Skyla and things just get hotter and hotter. I just love a strong alpha male and Kael doesn’t disappoint at any point in time. Skyla’s story is a bit sad to hear but she’s so damn good at what she’s been taught to do and when she’s into the moment… ooohwiiii. I’m telling you know to be prepared for a hot and sizzling read, keep your B.O.B near by cause you’re going to need em. Must must MUST read and I cannot wait for more. This is my unbiased and voluntary review.
