Description

"Wilde combines hardboiled noir and Jewish folklore in this action-packed, perfectly paced paranormal romp… This giddy, sexy series launch is a delight." - Publishers Weekly (starred review)

Missing teens. Impossible magic. And the sexy nemesis who might drive her to murder.

Ashira Cohen takes great pride in the detective agency she's built from scratch. It may be small, but she has big dreams.

None of which involve a stakeout gone wrong.

Or finding a mysterious tattoo hidden on her scalp.

Or discovering it's a now-broken ward intended to suppress dangerous supernatural powers that she should not possess.

Don't even get her started on the golem.

The only bright spot is that her unruly powers nearly kill her long-time nemesis, Levi, the uptight leader of the magic community. No, right… that's a bad thing.

One word from him revealing her forbidden abilities, and everything she's built will be taken from her… by force. Definitely bad.

Except, it seems Levi requires her unique set of skills to solve a spree of abductions. After years of being underestimated by him, it's Ash's chance at payback and she's going to enjoy bringing him to his knees—or stuffing him in a body bag.

But with a sinister organization pulling strings from the shadows, can she rescue the captives and uncover the truth, or will the next blood spilled be her own?

If you like KF Breene, Annabel Chase, and Heather G Harris, you'll burn through this clever, fast-paced series!

Featuring an enemies-to-lovers romance and a savvy female P.I., this laugh-out-loud urban fantasy will keep you up all night.

    This was a really fun and engrossing read. I don’t normally pick supernatural fiction but needed a read for a long trip. Really captured my interest and kept it.

    Very well written mystery! Lots of action and romance. I could do without the sex scenes as it took away from the story.

    This author writes a stunning tale woven with a great series supported by her characters. She brings in topics that have you thinking and falling or hating characters. I highly recommend you read any of her work.

    I first found Deborah Wilde through her Unlikeable Demon Hunter series and was incredibly excited to find out about her new series when TUDH wrapped up. Let’s just say that Blood and Ash did not disappoint. Not even remotely. Wilde has a true gift for creating strong female leads who combine vulnerability, strength, and snark into an unstoppable force. Blood and Ash was a fantastic introduction into a new series with fabulous character development. One of my favorite parts about Wilde’s books is that her characters span several different ethnic backgrounds and there is always a strong cultural theme that adds incredible depth to the story. If you like strong females, snark, culture, non-stop action, and amazing relationship dynamics with friends, enemies, look no further, Blood and Ash has it all!
