2 stars. This one started strong, but then veered into angry and just plain weird territory with Adrian, Eddie, and Jim all having nervous breakdowns every five pages. I keep thinking - um, there are supposed to be at least four more books in the series right? I'm not sure what Ward is going to do with the rest of them because everyone seems to be losing their shit right here. Yes, I get these are supremely unhappy people, but Ward always feels the need to ratchet it up a notch with scene uponWHAT an Awesome read!!!! 5+ stars!! I love this series. Our game continues of good vs evil or in this case Jim vs Devina. Now that Jim has discovered Devina's weakness for him, he is determined to exploit that to the fullest to win the game of keeping the souls of mankind and heaven out of the devil's hands. Jim's soul to save is Thomas Veck DelVecchio, Jr. We met Veck in a prior BDB book. His dad is a prolific serial killer and is due to be put to death in about a week. Everyone has been
I can review this one. I just finished it, and it was good.So, the deal with this series is that it is set in the Black Dagger Brotherhood world. If you haven't read any of those, or don't like them, I wouldn't bother trying this one out. I think one of my favorite things in these books is when there is a familiar character from the BDB world. I get all excited about it, like Buddy from Elf.So, Jim, our angel has to save four out of seven souls to save humanity from eternal damnation. But,
Major series game changers happen in this one! This heroine, Riley, started out fine but pissed me off later when she doesn't trust her man...to the point that he gets into really, really big trouble because she's such a suspicious *****. Veck, the hero, has both a good and an evil side that he has unknowingly kept in check his entire life. He's big and scary...and I LOVE big and scary. He's also very, very alone. He instantly feels this consuming attraction for Riley. He wants and needs a
4 Envy Stars! These are not your typical Angels, these Angels have Fallen. And, I adore them all. They drive the book/series for me. Veck I adored, Sophia what she had going for her was that she was NOT a damsel in distress. I loved that a lot.
SpoilersBlah this book was just okay for me. I didn't really care for the love story part of this book. Veck the hero was likable. The heroine Reilly on the other hand I couldn't stand. The whole book she tells Veck that he can trust her and tell her anything. Then when a bad guy sets Veck up she believes the bad guy. She turns her back on Veck when he needs her most. She not only breaks up with him, without a reason she helps try to build a legal case against him with the aim of putting him in
This book had so much of what I love about JR Wards books. I like how she writes male protagonists and their interactions with each other. Ward has an interesting idea on the urban fantasy world, she makes it fun to read. I did feel it was too long, I ended up skimming some parts and felt I did not miss anything. Normally I really enjoy different points of view, Wards seems to do this well in her BDB series but the switches from Nigel, to Colin, to Sophia, to Veck and back and forth seemed to be
