Warning: Do not start this unless you have time to finish. I started it in my lunch hour at work and had to keep sneaking a read until I finished

“There are four rules that the Fallen Angels must keep::
1- Do not befriend a human
2- Do not interfere in their lives
3- Do not have relations with a human
4- Under no circumstances will you ever reveal your true self.”

Having lived for more than a few centuries, Eli has succumbed to the charms of Ryden and broken every single rule. Brought in for his judgment, Eli is defiant and insistent that Ryden is his true soulmate. In the face of this persistent, the judgment against Eli gives him 24 hours to have Ryden declare her love for him, but he must go back in time to do so before he and Ryden became a couple. Will Ryden still love him without his glamour and can she overcome her inherent wariness to declare her love in such a short time?

As a Fallen Angel, Eli has an inherent glamour that draws the so-called “lesser species” to him. The elders refuse to believe that Ryden could love Eli for himself without his glamour. If they were to accept this, it would change the whole structure of their society. Eli, though, knows she does and is prepared to face death for this belief. If you are looking for a strong-willed protective male lead then go no further, Eli will defend Ryden with his life even when his powers are bound and he has to rely on only his long years of experience as a warrior.

I almost gave this a five as is very well written and draws you in. As stated above, I started this very compelling story in my lunch hour and had to keep stealing reads until I finished. The only reasons it didn’t get a five where a couple of little niggles; there is one question that, while briefly asked, is never answered and it bugged me. When a Fallen Angel finds a soulmate in a human, what happens when the human dies, or does being mated somehow give the human longevity? The only other slight niggle was the glossary at the start. Since this was there, I didn’t expect explanations for all the terms throughout the story but they were there and it was just a little frustrating.

I really enjoyed this as an obvious start to a series and am very eager to find out how the other Fallen Angels find their soulmates. The next story will be challenging as Lucca seems a real piece of work.

So in closing, this is an enthralling story that leaves you wanting more and wondering just how the other Fallen Angels stories will come about.
