Reading the small description of the book sounded like it was going
to be interesting. On top of that I remember enjoying Jeaniene Frost
Night Huntress series from what I have read. The book was written well
and was smooth and flowing rather nicely. There was a bit where things
felt they dragged on a bit too much in some instances but after those
few nagging things it went along fine.
The book starts out with
Ivy a college student who is looking for her sister who had vanished.
Her parents recently killed and the only clue she has was the last place
her sister was at a bed and breakfast. She wasn’t able to find her
sister but meets up with the detective and get’s saved by this stranger
who seems to be one of the sexiest things she’s seen on earth. This
stranger Adrian kidnaps her and they both find out about Ivy’s real
heritage and Adrian’s.
Ivy does talk to herself and about the
logical things she should be doing, though she doesn’t seem to listen to
the logical things she says. She’s dragged into this supernatural world
that she didn’t want to be in all she wanted was to get her sister and
live normal. Now she has to work for an angel, with a guy who’s destiny
is intertwined with her and fighting demons. There’s trails that she
has to face and it get’s complicated with her feelings getting in the
way about Adrian.
This book has a mixture of mythology, history
and some hints of Christianity. The points it makes Jeaniene keeps it
close enough to where it doesn’t clash badly with christianity and some
of history. There is a lot of humor as most of Jeaniene’s books bring to
the table. I found myself laughing with the interactions of Ivy and
Adrian even the friends Adrian has.
Over all the book is
funny and rather enjoyable, there is some sexual content but it’s not
something that overload’s you to where you are wondering about the
content of the book. I’ve enjoyed it and can’t wait till the second book comes out. 4 Stars out of 5 at the moment.
