I was delighted to be reunited with Lincoln and Myla in Angelfire,  the 5th book in the Angelbound Lincoln series.

Our story flings us back in time to Lincoln's 17th birthday celebrations. His grandfather, Raedwulf, whom he only sees once a year is on the scene. Every year they attend and perform in the Achilles Festival, a celebration of sorts to commemorate the imprisoning of Hades for a thousand years. Every year Raedwulf says this will be his last festival, only this year it is.

Flash forward a few years, Lincoln is now married with a very pregnant Myla. Things are not all peaceful and calm though.

Lincoln's father, Connor is celebrating the finding of his firstborn son, Truman, and is acting out of character. Only Lincoln and Myla seem to think there is more to brother Truman than meets the eye. In fact Myla nicknames him TH, Truman-Hades.

Things come to a head when Truman (TH) challenges Lincoln to the Tournament of Kings. Much to the surprise of TH, Lincoln accepts. It is only once they are both shrouded by the battle dome, Truman reveals his true identity as Hades.

Thereby follows an epic battle scene, written as only Christina can. Good triumphs over evil, a safe birth for the son of Lincoln and Myla.

This is a wonderful addition to the story so far and I can't wait to see what follows.

I do not know how Christina Bauer can keep the “Angelbound” series so fresh, but Angelfire is fresh in so many ways (chuckle).

Let’s start with the design work inside Angelfire. I love it. It adds to the story. I think my favorite is of Juno. I just stared at the artwork for a while. It’s gorgeous.

I highlighted so many passages that I soon realized that I could not post them all because I would be reprinting the book (chuckle). I love Angelfire. Bauer wrote on Instagram that she was concerned about Myla being pregnant and, in my opinion, snark translates whether you are pregnant or not. Myla and snark go hand and hand and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

There is a Myla flashback chapter that had me chuckling so much, I had to reread the chapter to ensure I didn’t miss any easter eggs. I freaking love Myla.

I said in another review about Lincoln that he is the voice of romance in this couple and Bauer proves it over and over again in Angelfire. Bauer also demonstrates why Myla and Lincoln are a super couple: unwavering support. There is a point in the story that Lincoln asks Myla how come she isn’t peppering him with questions and she basically says in their unique speak: I got you and have faith in you. (sigh)

Bauer manages to cover everything from what children should play with, the type of diapers one should use, circumcision, and even breastfeeding options all the while preparing a kick ass fight scene. I have to confess that Bauer knows how to tangle shit up, so I had to create a family tree once the reveals started happening. Oi vey, a cheat sheet was needed for me because I am just that type of fan.

Impending parenthood does not stop this battle couple in saving their world. There are surprises, betrayals, magic, and the kind of romance you wish happened in the real world. Myla and Lincoln are my vote for Battle Couple of the Decade. Read Angelfire and find out why I think so.

So loved the characters in this book, yet another enjoyable release from Christina Bauer. 5 stars all the way. An epic cover also .

"Christina you slayed it!! WOW!! I've love Lincoln since the beginning and never thought I could love him more but I was so wrong! He's one of a kind there's not doubt about it. How can he be so perfect lol? Plus, Myla is THE QUEEN! Absolutely adored seeing a more mature side of her well all the mature a pregnant woman with a demon side can be lol. She’s hilarious, it’s insane how crazy her mind can be. She started as a lost kid searching for love and answers but now she's stronger than ever and fearless like no one else. Lincoln and Myla as a couple. No one can deny they are the hottest couple ever!! One of the most beautiful marriage in history. Lincoln, sweet Lord, the way she adores Myla had me enamored. If I were a cartoon, my eyes would look like hearts. Now… Truman! Wow and not in the kind of good way. How can he...? *not telling more* but seriously?! Why my baby Lincoln has to pay for Connor's sin? You'll get it, trust me. THAT particularly scene *cough cough* fight was utterly shocking. A huge ovation to Christina for this new story! You're gonna love it and I can assure you'll be on the edge wanting more and more of this incredible couple *wink wink* parents.”

Christina is a lyrical genius and continues to keep us on the edge of our seats while reading this fantastic story of Lincoln and Myla. Story continues through Myla's pregnancy as her hormones are releasing more of her demon side and Lincoln feels super protective of her. However, an evil brother comes into play that they have to battle and Christina just continues with the Fantastic storyline, magical world building, epic new characters and overall, the hottest couple ever!!
