Angels are good and demons are evil - at least that's what
they would like you to believe. But what would you do if a
demon protects you and many other innocent humans, at the
expense of himself? When Kyanna finds herself face to face
with the most attractive man that she has ever set eyes
on,
she struggles with the fact that she wants him, because
he is
a demon. Someone she has been taught to fear. But Xander
is
different in so many ways, and her instincts are telling
her
that he is someone she can trust, even with her secrets.
Xander is known as the Slayer, one of the most dangerous
of
Lucifer's demons. But having been exiled from heaven and
abandoning hell, Xander is now one of The Fallen, a group
of
demons determined to find the four sacred relics, to keep
them
from those that would abuse them, and to protect as many
innocents as possible. Discovering Kyanna, he soon
realises
that she is a Guardian of one of the relics, and vows to
protect her, and it is not long before he wants her more
than
anything else in this world - even more than he wants
redemption. As Kyanna and Xander struggle with their
deeply
intense connection, heaven and hell intrude on their time
together, and as a fight to the death ensues, will Xander
survive so that he can protect the only person he has ever
truly loved? And as Kyanna's heritage is uncovered, will
she
ever be able to be with the demon she adores?
THE SLAYER by Brenda Huber is an enthralling read that
left me
begging for the next instalment. This genre of romance is
relatively new to me, but I know hypnotic characters,
steamy
sexual tension, and a fast paced adventure when I read it,
and
this novel has it all. I fell for Xander instantly and
desperately wanted him to open up and allow emotion back
into
his life. And Kyanna is exactly the type of woman that he
needs - strong, independent,loving and feisty.
With
danger,
passion, sexy demons that care, and a lot of action, THE
SLAYER by Brenda Huber is a new favourite of mine. I'm
eagerly awaiting the release of The Seer, which is the
next in
the series.
The darker side of his nature just can’t let her go. Chronicles of the Fallen, Book 1 Born of heaven, forged in hellfire and damnation, Xander roams the Earth as an unlikely protector of the innocent. Grudgingly embroiled in a demon uprising, Xander must help his brothers-in-arms recover four Sacred Relics rumored to be Lucifer’s downfall. The stakes are simple. If he fails, a new regime will assume control of the underworld and the boundaries between hell and earth will crumble. If he succeeds, long-awaited salvation could be his. But when a beautiful innocent is caught in the crossfire, the price of redemption could be too steep. Kyanna Hughes is a hereditary Guardian, sworn to protect a sacred Relic at all costs. From the cradle, she was taught to hate all things demon, but her unwanted attraction to Xander turns everything she’s been taught upside down. The danger she faces involves more than her heart. For Kyanna is not only a Guardian, but a Keeper of Secrets so dangerous, that to keep them out of demon hands even the angels in heaven would see her dead… Warning: Contains a demon with a notoriously single-minded determination to save the world, and a sworn enemy for whom he will risk eternal damnation. And so begins the journey of six fallen demons and the women who capture their hearts…
