Description
Flames cast an ominous orange glow against the night sky as a barn catches fire, consuming everything within: from the hay bales to the victim bound and left to die.
News of the murder sparks fear in the small community of Cherry Creek, and that fear only grows when the arsonist leaves a calling card belonging to a killer everyone believed was long dead.
The Dragonfly mysteriously disappeared from the local asylum decades ago, stepping out of existence and into legend. The story draws the attention of Noelle McKenzie, a local author, and she digs into details from the past while Captain Derek Dempsey searches for evidence in the present.
But there’s more going on than either of them suspect, and this threat doesn’t just come knocking; it kicks in the door with a wicked plan and a lit match. If they don’t stop the arsonist soon, there may not be anything left of Cherry Creek to save.
At this time, I can only ship within the US

C. C. Warrens has outdone herself with this book. It has held me captivated, intrigued, and completely mystified. She hits the ground running and doesn’t stop until the very last page. As someone who loves to figure out what is going on along the way, I had absolutely NO clue where this suspense packed mystery was taking me, and I LOVED every single moment along the way. I will be completely honest and admit I was a little creeped out while reading this book. The desire to look over your shoulder and be aware of your surroundings is strong! I love the interaction between Noelle, Sky, Derek, and Walt. Seeing all the beloved characters develop was beautiful!! I’m not going to give away any surprises, but I absolutely LOVED one character development the most, and I look forward to seeing how he continues to grow through love, grace, and mercy.
A definite MUST read! I promise you will NOT be disappointed!! Hang on to your seat because it will be a bumpy ride.

Oh my goodness! I love CC Warren’s books—every single one. This is no exception. The humor that’s mixed in is a bonus. This is a thriller with a little romance mixed in. It keeps you guessing throughout the story. The only problem I have with these books is that I don’t want to stop reading! I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for my honest review. Opinions are my own.

Another solid story from CC Warrens! The second book in The Cherry Creek Mysteries was the perfect follow up to Firefly Diaries, letting us find out more of Noelle’s story. The perfect mix of mystery & suspense with unexpected twists & a bit of romance thrown in. Looking forward to the next book in this series!

Love, love, love this book! What a great follow up to Skye and Noelle’s stories. The fear and tension are palpable on every page, as is the hope and redemption woven through the story. Bravo, CC Warrens, for crafting another amazing story!

Dragonfly Ashes picks up where Firefly Diaries (book 1) ends, and continues with Noelle, Dereck, and Skylar’s story. For this reason, I think it is best to read Firefly Diaries before reading this one.
This was another fabulous, edge-of-your-seat thriller by C.C. Warrens. There were a few heart-stopping moments, excellent character development, tender moments, and a developing romance. The stalker’s perspective enhanced the creepy factor.
I thought I knew who the bad guys were. They were so obvious! But, I was soooo wrong! I was shocked when all was revealed. I do not know how Warrens can weave such a diabolical tale, with plot twists and a surprise reveal, and have it all come together so seamlessly!
I hope there are more books in this series because I am NOT ready to be done with Cherry Creek.
