Hooking, thrilling and unique.
it is such a unique context in romance that I couldn’t help but love. It deals with really intense topics, especially as a war. Now in 2023 I recommend this series if you like HBO’s The Last of Us but make it romance.

I'm going to go ahead and review the series as a whole, because there are common themes that run throughout that are uniquely explicated in each book.

Where do I even start? First, that I totally understand the hype about this series now. It’s one of those series that grabs you by the throat and takes you along for one hell (pun intended) of a ride.

Each FMC brings different elements of humanity to the fore that speak to their angelic counterparts in profound ways. And the ways in which author Laura Thalassa explores idea about God, humanity, frailty, good, and evil are so intriguing. Though these were written starting in the “before” times, Thalassa’s work seems all the more prescient today.

If you want your mind and heart challenged, if you want to experience the beauties of love and human nature (and their ugliness, too), then please, please read this series. It is masterful.

This was a good read, but I didn't love it as much as I did the first book in this series. I won't lie, I started this book with high expectations after reading the first story and it didn't meet my expectations. It wasn't bad, it just wasn't as amazing a story to me as I had hoped it would be. I liked Miriam and War characters a lot and although War took countless lives, he loved Miriam and her soft heart. He had his soft moments throughout this story even though most were few and far between but there were moments. I loved that Miriam wasn't a weak character and she gave as good as she got. This story was steamy, but I needed a little more romance between the main characters. It had its funny moments, twists and turns, a sweet reuniting ending. It also ends leaving readers ready for Famine and I am excited to read the next book. This is a series I will be recommending to my paranormal romance book loving friends.
