Description
Fallen Angel, Damian Fontaine was banished from heaven for too often indulging in sex with humans. He has made the best of his eight hundred years on earth by creating missions to help repressed mortals find the sexually fulfilling life that eludes them.
Advertising executive Hayley Vincent believes Ward Dawson, her ridiculously hot best friend and sometimes lover, would be the perfect man if he didn’t have a severe case of commitment phobia. She’s been in love with him for years. Then a steamy new neighbor moves in across the hall, and she has to wonder if it might be time to move on...or at least try to spark some jealousy and change her status with Ward from friends with benefits to something permanent.
While Damian works toward completing his current mission, he begins to question the meaning of his centuries-old relationship with Rhiannon, a witch with a sexual appetite as veracious as his, and the sudden stirrings of mortal emotions. Has he been on Earth too long or is there more at hand?

Just okay
Interesting premise for a story but the execution fell short and I didn’t care for the ending (except at least there was one HEA).
I voluntarily read an advanced copy.
Damian is a fallen angel who has taken it upon himself to unite Harley and Ward in a long-term, loving, committed relationship. But first Damian needs to figure out why Ward is dragging his feet.
During the unfolding of events we learn more about Damian and why and how he fell from grace. We also learn why a fallen angel would decide to help mortals with matters of sex and love.
This could have been expanded quite a bit more and been very good. However, at 66 pages it was a quick but enjoyable diversion from daily life. I will look for more in this series, as this was book three.
A copy of this book was provided by The Wild Rose Press, Inc via Netgalley.
I enjoyed this book. It was a quick, fun read. I would have liked to have felt a more intense connection between the two main characters, and some of the dialogue was a bit too formal. Still, I would definitely read additional books from this author.
After a quick intro in which a woman pines for more than a casual sex relationship with the man she’s fallen in love with, the action moves to the protagonist, fallen angel/hedonist Damien Fontaine, relaxing with his main squeeze, Rhiannon.
Damien is a lot more introspective than usual, making a nice parallel to the human couple in that he wonders if there’s something more than a friends-with-benefits relationship with his witch sex buddy. She’s more perceptive than she lets on, but that probably won’t be addressed till the next installment.
But back to the main story. I have to agree with Damien that she deserves better, which makes the inevitable ending still feel forced. Despite the fun in bed and on the tennis court, this one just wasn’t as good as the previous two.
