Avenger's Angel

Please believe me. I didn't purchase this book expecting a great story, but I needed something to read to distract me from the unfinished backlist I have piling up on my Nook. I figured it would be a fast read, that there might be some angelic badassery and a little angelic sex and a happy ending. What I didn't expect was to quit the damn thing 2/3rds through. I didn't expect the visceral anger and the burning desire to growl out the words, "Fuck you SO HARD, book!" Alas, my husband was in my pr [...]

Long ago, the Old Man gathered together his four favored archangels, Michael, Gabriel, Uriel, and Azrael. He pointed to four stars in the sky that shone brighter than the others. He told the archangels that he wished to reward them for their loyalty and had created for them soul mates. Four perfect female beings—archesses.However, before the archangels could claim their mates, the four archesses were lost to them and scattered to the wind, beyond their realm and reach. The archangels made the [...]

Review originally posted at Ramblings From This ChickI had such high hopes for this book when I picked it up. Everywhere I turned it seemed to be getting such rave reviews. I'm not sure what book they were reading but it definitely wasn't this book. Don't get me wrong, this book is not in any way horrible, it actually has a lot of potential. I just am at a point that I'm just so frustrated with how things are playing themselves out that I just can't physically pick it up right now. This book act [...]

3 starse-ARC provided by netgalley and PENGUIN GROUP USA Contain some spoilers.I will not tell about the story just want to explain why I give this book 3 stars instead 4 or 5 stars. The reason :- An irritating hero. Uriel the former archangel of vengeance a.k.a Christoper Daniels , the famous actor of "Comeuppance" is douche or jerk. His action kinda remind me of hero at old bodice ripper novel. Actually not too jerk, he can be charming sometimes. But mostly he act as Neanderthal when its conce [...]

I love to start a new paranormal romance series and the first book in The Lost Angels series really rocks!! “Avenger’s Angel” by Heather Killough-Walden isn’t just like the other paranormal romance books. It has not only romance, it has a lot of action and great plot. Archangels and fallen angels, hidden secrets and old stories together they’re making a great story with interesting characters.In this series we have the story of God’s four beloved archangels (Old Man in the book!). Th [...]

As a reward for their devotion, and flawless service, four favored Archangels, were given a special blessing. They were shown the four brightest stars in the vast cosmos and told that they were the gifts. Four Archesses meant to be mates to the mighty, Uriel, the angel of Vengeance, Michael the Warrior, Gabriel the Messenger, and Azrael the angel of Death. A revolt arose in Heaven because of the jealousy over the favored status of the four, causing the Archesses to fall from the sky and land in [...]

What I thought was going to be a formula PNR book (immortal guy meets human girl, knows her instantly as "his" and then proceeds to 'win' her over) started out right, but about halfway through gave a violent plot twist and then just kept on twisting. The second half of this book I could NOT have anticipated, and with a genre that has this formula down to a science to the point where I confuse several series and characters with each other, this book stands out.Azrael and Ellie were great together [...]

I wanted to like this title, but upon setting my Kindle down back in August, I have not had the desire to pick this book back up. It's a pity--especially since I was so looking forward to this novel.My issues:-The hero and heroine were difficult to like;-Very hard for me to get into the story;-A little bit too cooky/corny for my tastes.I know that plenty will gobble this book up, despite the fact that I did not enjoy this title. Incredibly interesting premise, but it seems that I am not alone in [...]

Se questo libro vi è piaciuto non leggete la recensione. Sono seria: cercherò di fargli tanto male quanto lui ne ha fatto a me. Mentre leggevo mi sono sentita offesa all'idea che qualcuno pensasse una roba del genere potesse divertirmi, e non riesco a capire come abbia raggiunto la pubblicazione. È stata la prima volta che ho interrotto la lettura per cercare informazioni, perchè non riuscivo a credere che fosse un libro vero, che sia stato stampato - venduto! - davvero. Speravo la serie fos [...]

Review posted: Happily Ever After - ReadsMichael, the Warrior ArchangelUriel, the Angel of VengeanceGabriel, the Messenger ArchangelAzrael, the Angel of DeathThe blurb for this one really intrigued me: 4 archangel “brothers” following their scattered mates, or archesses as they’re called, down to earth to try and find them. The search isn’t as easy as they maybe thought it would be and thousands of years later, the archangels are living on earth as basically humans and still looking for [...]

Uriel, Azrael, Michael & Gabriel are favoured archangels and as a reward for their loyalty the Old Man created a soul mate for each of them. Unfortunately before they were able to claim their mates the archesses were lost on earth. The archangels chose to leave heaven to follow their mates and have spent the last 2,000 years trying to track them down. As soon as Uriel meets Ellie he knows he has found his destiny but can he convince her that they are meant to be together? The brothers aren't [...]

3.5 of 5 StarsIf you are familiar with my book reviews or my blog (booksavvybabe), you may already know that I am partial to angels. I love the different mythologies surrounding them, their powers, their divinely supernatural status, it all appeals to me. When I saw Avenger's Angel, I quickly jumped at the opportunity to read and review this new paranormal romance. Avenger's Angel is book 1 in a new series about the "Old Man's" 4 favorite archangels; Michael, Gabriel, Azrael, and Uriel. After cr [...]

I have been so excited about “Avenger’s Angel” ever since I saw it at the Headline Publishing event back in May. The cover is just gorgeous, and as I have a huge thing for angels right now, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on a copy. Luckily I received an early review copy, and let me tell you, I was not disappointed!The writing is fabulous and there are three plots that weave together to create a thrilling action-packed story as well as a beautiful romance, and there are moments that are [...]

Original Romancing the Darkside Review:romancingthedarkside.Sexy archangels on a hunt for their soul-mates that will steal your heart!This is a promising start to a series that has definitely piqued my interest! Avenger's Angel tells the story of the four favored angels of Heaven who were given the gift of their soul mates, known as the archesses, only to be torn apart, banished to Earth and hidden from the archangels.

4.5/5Egalley thanks to Penguin Group USAWhere do I sign up for the rest of the series? It was uber cool, people. Four Archangels roaming the earth for 2000 years looking for their archesses. And check this out: one of them is a vampire and a famous rock singer, another is the actor who played a vampire in a insanely popular movie, the third is a policeman and the forth is a fireman.Is this a collection of man candies or what? *grinning*But that's not it. There is a Fallen Archangel, Samael, who [...]

~~~~ 3*** ~~~~ This (for me) was one of those 'OK, that was a good book' books not an 'OMG I loved this book' books- it was at about 60% of the way through that I finally felt more compelled to read it. This is Uriel's story- the Archangel of vengeance- also known to humans as actor Christopher Daniels. When he bumps into Ellie he knows instantly who she isHeather KW gives some very good descriptions of scenes so that you have a great image in your head and her idea behind this story is quite un [...]

This series is about 4 archangels (Uriel, Gabriel, Michael, and Azrael)who were "the old mans" favorites. For being his favorite he gifted them all with their own soulmate/archess so they would never be lonely. Then jealousy spawned from another which ultimately got the archesses sent to earth to be hidden. The 4 archangels decided to go to earth and claim their soulmates. They have been searching for 2000 years and have since decided to fit in with the ever changing society. Avenger's Angel is [...]

The four archangels - Michael, Gabriel, Uriel and Azrael - fell to earth 2000 years ago, to search for the archesses - soul mates - that the Old Mam [God?] created for them as a reward for their loyalty. Fellow archangel Samael - AKA The Dark Prince - follows the brothers down to earth, as he is jealous that they have archesses and, so, he intends to take them for himself.This is the first book in THE LOST ANGELS series, where we follow each brother as they continue the search for their other ha [...]

This was a book with potential. The premise: 2000 years ago, four favored archangels were given the gift of soulmates. But before they could join with their archesses, members of their brethren interfered, wanting the women for themselves. The creator sent the women to earth to protect them, and their mates chose to fall, in order to find them among the humans.Presumably, each archangel will get his own book as the series progresses. This one features Uriel, the first of the four to finally find [...]

Je voulais une histoire d'Anges ça tourne au vampire.ons sur le fait que je n'aime pas Ellie Il y avait de bons argumentsle lien entre les frères, le méchant mais euh même si le côté "femme créée pour ces mâles là "m'a un chouia derangée parce que ça donne une image rétrograde de la femme, j'ai en plus appris en lisant quelques reviews que la notion de consentement est un peu jetée aux orties et que la scène de sexe a tout d'un viol. Je ne vérifierai pas, je n'ai pas le courage [...]

I'm a sucker when it comes to books about Angels so I was hooked before reading it. This is very much an adult fiction so it was an interesting read as it was defiantly a new genre for me. I love the possessiveness of Uriel for Ellie and their steamy sessions were pretty well written. Haha there was certainly a lot of drama and it was very much problem after problem which made it a quick read and hard to put down as I wanted to know how our heroes would overcome these dramas. Loved the quick rea [...]

I was wandering around in the library with sushi and a fresh box of mango chunks when I stumbled (quite literally) upon this, so I picked it up and sat by the window preparing to read. Reaching page 100, it suddenly dawned upon me that this book was terribly written and I had no idea why I was reading it as a side project. I guess I have a weakness for extremely handsome men and subtly weak cliché females within a dominant alpha male environmentDNF2 stars. Back to the sushi it seems.

Goodness, I have to say Heather Killough-Walden keeps the twists and turns coming in this first book of her new Lost Angels series. I like the concept of the four favorite Archangels being given freewill to come down to earth to locate their Archesses - their soul mates. It takes them numerous lifetimes to find those unique women, and just when they think all might just work out, they couldn’t be more wrong.Uriel, the former Angel of Vengeance, is up first. In his current life, he’s Christop [...]

Review posted here: offbeatvagabond/2011/12/book-review-avengers-angel-lost-angel-1ml I have two questions: 1) When is the next book coming out and 2) can I get it right this very second? Everyone knows my love for angels and honestly, I think this is one of my favorites. The world, the characters, the story; everything just fit so well. I absolutely fell in love with this book and It seems I have found another great series full of hot brothers that kick lots of ass. So that is definitely a bonu [...]

Review courtesy of Dark Faerie Tales.Quick & Dirty: A well-developed world with slow parts and characters that were hard to connect with.Opening Sentence: The archangel Michael gripped the rock in his right hand so hard that his fingers left imprints in the stone.The Review:Avenger’s Angel is a story about friendship, love, faith and free will. Do you even have free will if your mate has been determined for you from the start? This is one conflict that Eleanore Granger must go through when [...]
