it was amazing

I LOVED this BOOK!!!! When I saw this beautiful dark cover I knew I had to read it! I love demons ! This is one of best I've ever read. When Casziel watches his family and then his wife murdered in front of his eyes before he is killed he wants vengeance and makes a deal with Ashtaroth a demon prince. And for years he leads legions from hell and has more blood on his hands then most and is feared by many in hell. But in over 4,000 years of carnage he has watched silently from a far his wife be reincarnated time and time again and each time she is all alone. He might not be able to be with her but he wants to to put her soul to rest.And if that means helping her to find love with someone else its the least he can do for his beloved. Lucy Is shy and not very social and while she carries a crush for he co-worker Guy her insecurities keep her alone living life through her romance books but when she comes home one day to find a beautiful naked man with black wings hurt in her alley way she has no idea that its just the start of memories about another time and place and that the dreams she's been having are of a long ago life and a lovers oath to love forever. This was truly a beautiful story of true love and of redemption. I loved how Casziel was willing to do whatever it took to make sure that Lucy finally was happy even if it meant watching her with guy and ending his life as the ultimate sacrifice. This is a slow burn with not much happening til half way thru but it doesn't hurt the story one bit! Awesome writers don't need to have pages of sex to be awesome! But fear not! When things do get started its very steamy and hot! Great storytelling and awesome characters are what make this book! I would be remiss if I didn't mention casziel's lieutenant Ambri I loved this bad boy!!! He's not only cheeky and sexy with a lot of swagger but he like casziel isn't completely unredeemable either. Until next time Luv's 💕💋

Here's a few quotes that speak to what I feel when I read a romance. I know many like me feel this way as well 😘

“But the intensity of that kind of love, the kind of love where you feel lost without the other person. Where your strengths bolster each other’s weaknesses. Where you grow and are made better by loving them and being loved… Yes, I want that. And now that I’m saying it out loud, I realize I’m drawn to love stories because there’s something in them that I recognize or connect to, despite never having been in love myself.”


“My point is, in those books, you feel all the emotions and you fall in love along with the characters. And yes, you hope that kind of soul-deep romance happens to you too. That’s part of the fantasy—that anything’s possible. But until then, what’s wrong with living in someone else’s happiness for a little while?”

Every lifetime, wanting to kiss and touch and fuck you until I was nearly mad.” And just like that, my self-consciousness burned up like a dried leaf."

77.0% "“You want me to fuck you,” Casziel growled, breath hot against my skin. His tone was no longer refined but rough and raw. He put his mouth to one heavy, aching breast and sucked. “You want me to take this luscious body, don’t you, Lucy? You want me to sink my cock into your tight flesh and fuck you hard. And I will because you’re mine.”"

message 11: by Jaidee (new) - added it

Jaidee Kat these are not my type of books but you convinced me to give this a go....to hell and back lol !


Kat valentine ( Katsbookcornerreads) I hope you enjoy Jaidee!!!💕💋 😉


Angelique Brown Hello Kat, well thank you again for the awesome recommendation. This was really worth the read :) I didnt understand the eye's shut part, but this was so good.


Kat valentine ( Katsbookcornerreads) So glad you loved it!!!!! The reason he told her to shut her eyes was because he was in full demon form. I actually loved when he was a demon !!!💋💕😉


Angelique Brown Me too, I had a feeling that was it but I would have loved, not sure how to put it with words, but more descriptions of his demon form. I need a better imagination I think, lol. I'll have to go back to that chapter and re-read, maybe I missed something....its the only part of the book I felt kinda lost and for me the sex fell kinda flat, could be we didn't get his side of the narrative/bed if you will. Either way it was really good.


Kat valentine ( Katsbookcornerreads) I agree the sex was good but not plenty. The reason I loved this is sometimes you just want a love story and this book reminded me of Jude Deveraux books .They had a little sex but were beautiful love stories. That's why I said in the review that sex wasn't a big part of the story. Lately I've been reading some very dirty sexy reads so it was a breather. 💋💕😉


Angelique Brown I so agree. Me too on the dirty sex, boy the Immortals of New Orleans, floored me....wow steamy! I will have to check out these books you speak of my Jude Deveraux....the name even sounds sexy :) This was great love story and the Epilogues, awesome to see into the future like that too.


Lorrie (Clockworkbookworm) Great review, as always. I really enjoyed it. I think I need to start reading Jude Deveraux.


Angelique Brown I read this last year, it truly was really good....so loved these quotes and so true to my life.....since I cant find love in the real world might as well live vicariously in the book world :) Glad you like it
