To Sunsets and Sunrises…..
Let me start off by saying there is just way too much sweetness in Bash. (Bash, I know you don’t want your secret out there but damn man you are a secret romantic at heart and I couldn’t get enough of it.)
Ellie, the words you write never cease to amaze me. I was consumed with Bash and Holly’s story. The emotions were real and very touching. You had my heart attached to Bash even more than before. The story was so much more than a “boy” in a rock band. You are also now making me have to choose between all the men of Angel Fire. Girl, I want them all.
Holly is this sweet innocent girl who has been hurt in the past and is ultimately left dumbstruck when Bash pretty much barges into her life.
Bash, the quiet one….
They are always the ones with the deepest story. He intrigued me throughout the previous books in the Angel Fire series and I am so glad we got to know his story. My heart hurt for him at times and cheered at others. I can’t lie though it was very entertaining watching the man be brought down to his knees by a girl. There were just so many parts that had me smiling or giggling. True perfection as to a man not knowing what to do when he actually has to work for what he wants. I’m telling you I had a smile on my face throughout the entire book.
Hearts Divided was everything and then some. I couldn’t put the book down. It would have been devoured in hours had “real life” not gotten in the way. Bash, Holly, the men of Angel Fire, there women, Forest and hell even the roadies are all so loveable and I couldn’t get enough of them. The comradery between the guys of Angel Fire is still there and they have each other’s backs through thick and thin. Hearts Divided is 5+++ and I sure hope we are getting more of Angel Fire in the future.
In any band, my favourite musician is the drummer. Unlike any other musician, a drummer must use and control his/her entire body to play their instrument. Each hand and each foot must be able to function independently—complete a specific task or it is all just noise. That said, the Sebastian that Ellie Masters has gifted us could be a kazoo player and he’d still be the hottest book boyfriend of the year. The book begins with even Sebastian believing he is Bash—the music industry icon living up to the hype necessary to be a Rock Star. It is beyond endearing to see him grow, mature, and find himself—the good man he wants to be in order to love the woman who has the ability to see beyond the publicity stunt.
Holly is a feisty woman, unaware of how strong and resilient she truly is. Rather than walk away from the things that made her happy, as many domestic violence survivors do, Holly re-directs her talents and skills. She continues to create friendships in the only way she can. And that makes her even stronger. Another endearing character trait Ellie Masters has given Sebastian is the ability to see and understand this in Holly and admire her for it. How he reacts after he has this revelation is truly swoon-worthy. Have your tissues ready!
Heart’s Divided is the fourth book in the Angel Fire series. While many authors begin to lose interest—or run out of fresh ideas around this point, Ellie Masters does not. Twists and turns that you do not see coming are stellar in this volume of the series. Heart’s Divided is fresh and unique while still including the ensemble, all perfectly in-character. As only Ellie Masters can, hints from the characters that we have yet to meet one-on-one are leisurely scattered throughout Heart’s Divided. Whose story will be revealed next? A comment here, a sentence there, enticing, teasing, and making us beg Ellie Masters to write faster!
Just a note: The first two pages of Heart’s Divided are so creatively sexy, so H-O-T that you might want to read the first chapter in privacy! The not-attractive man I was sitting next to on that crowded flight certainly got the wrong vibes! Don’t make my mistake!
Congratulations, Ellie Masters! The story of Holly and Bash is, at once, the sweetest, hottest thing since Dreamland BBQ Sauce!
Holy Hell!! Even though this series can all be read as a stand-alone, they are all amazing! This one is the best yet! Holly and Bash are pure perfection! Their story ended way too soon!!
This series is fast becoming one of my favourites.
The Men of Angels Fire will Rock your world, capture your heart and set your panties on fire.
I’ve always been curious about Bash since I began this series. The shaven headed drummer has always been mysterious and fascinating to read about. So I was thrilled when I heard he was next for his story.
Bash has always had a penchant for red headed girls. Always pining after the one that got away, the one that broke his heart and destroyed his faith in love
Since Angels Fire became big Bash has had plenty of women all of them substitutes, cheap imitations to scratch an itch. He’s never cared about any of them.
Then he meets a gorgeous firey redhead who gets under his skin.
At first Bash only thinks about getting in her pants she’s just his type after all.
But after talking to the sassy little fire cracker he realises she’s not automatically falling for his charm.
Bash has to up his game if he wants a chance with Holly and it’s a refreshing concept to him. He doesn’t just want a quick fuxk he wants her. It’s been a long time since Bash felt any urge to chase a girl so he’s all in, now he just needs to convince her.
Bash and Holly will make you feel every emotion, their journey is heart breaking at times. It’s also sweet, funny, romantic and captivating. I loved every minute.
I’m already looking forward to more from the Angels Fire Boys. Spike has me super curious and of course there’s my Forest. I don’t think I’ll ever be prepared for his story but I need it.
Where to begin? I loved this poignantly bittersweet, beautiful love story. I do believe in fate and Ellie Masters has written a love story that begins with a fateful encounter and ends happily. Rock star, Bash meets everyday girl, Holly and she turns his world upside down. Along the way there are doggy adventures, reliving loss of lived ones, treasured events with kids and epic rock band moments. Heart’s Divided fits perfectly into the Angel Fire series with its strong, tantalizing, complex characters and a feel good storyline.
Bash’s transformation from rock god to the real caring, sentimental, romantic man he really is underneath his public persona was insightful and heartrending. Holly blossoms under Bash’s attention and love. She slowly shed her anxiety, mistrust and deep seated sadness as Bash slowly fills her world with wonder and contentment.
5 ***** Bash Me In ***** Stars
In true Ellie fashion, the characters of Angel Fire sink deeper into my heart. Bash is hit by fate with a fierce and feisty female on fire behind a drum kit. His cocksure ego gets the best of him as she blows past him and he’s beside himself to chase after her. Chase, a girl? Been a long time since that happened and she made him chase, boy did he have to work for it… But God love the man who does something straight up stupid and knocks her off her game with brutal honesty. Humble is the man in truth even if his mouth sometimes gets led by his junk.
I loved how he pushed, but knew when to pull back, but still never gave up. Go big or don’t go at all, is it? I felt the crackle of electricity between them and he rose to her fire, yet soothed her fears without judgement. As dynamic as these characters were, there was so much balance to themselves and to each other. Ego yet humble and fierce yet fearful. The sexual tension was off the charts and gosh I wanted more. That shower was not enough, gah, I wanted a full blown scene! The build up…killed me!
So many things about this raw and realistic journey took this couple along with the whole clan to the next phase in life. All the boys were back and they paid homage to their brotherhood again. And kept each other grounded, especially when Bash needed to get bashed by Ash. Kinda saw that train wreck coming but didn’t know how it would go down. And down it did. … But once again Bash bashed his way in once again – Go big or don’t go at all!
I’m intrigued by the side bar snippets with Spike and interested to find out what’s going on there … something big is gonna happen, but I hope it’s not what I think it is…. And the secret mission! Ooohhh… That’s gonna be good! And I caught that old guitar Ash played at one point, hoping that she is one in the same and made it back after the crash in Hearts Desire… We never did find out what happened to her.
But this story … The true stars of this book though, were Ranger and Duke. They stole the show!

Where do I start? Yet another mind blowing book in the Angel Fire series that will have you hooked right from page 1. This is Bash and Holly’s story. Bash is the drummer in Angel Fire, hurt many years ago when his childhood sweetheart left without a word. Now he doesn’t believe in love or a happy ever after and spends most of times having one night stands with groupies until he meets Holly. Holly has also been badly hurt in the past and is also doesn’t believe in love. But when Bash first see’s Holly he knows that she’s someone special but can he convince her? It’s not an easy ride for Bash and Holly by any means and it’s one that made me laugh and brought tears to my eyes.
This series has continued to be one of my favorites to read. Each book is amazing and this one is no different. Bash is one of my favorite characters and is a perfect match for Holly. The two of them are spitfires and have so much in common with sexual chemistry that is off the charts. When drama and uncertainty threatens their chances will they hold on or will they give up? The story and characters are fantastic and you are taken on this journey that encompasses so many emotions you will not be able to stop once you start. Another awesome read.
I am not normally a huge fan of rock romances, but Ellie Masters has captivated me with the Angel Fire Rock series. The whole series has been amazing. Hearts Divided is Bash’s highly anticipated story. Bash and Holly have such chemistry it will knock your socks off! This was a fantastic read. I loved it!
