Romance Paranormal

Gideon, the Demon of Temptation, has finally given up. Trying to protect humanity as one of the Fallen, he has accepted the fact that he has lost his wings and his gift of precognition and that he may never receive redemption, but he cannot exist anymore without being able to touch or be touched. When the Amulet of the Gods is destroyed, so is Gideon's last hope to lift the curse, and he decides to help his brothers on one final mission before he gives himself up to Oblivion. But this mission will change Gideon forever. Finding and protecting Maggie Michaels should be easy but Gideon never counted on wanting her like he has wanted no other.

Maggie Michaels knows that she has a unique gift - one that lets her sense danger and provides her with visions - but she doesn't realise that she is at the centre of good versus evil, and evil wants her to create The Chosen One. The only one standing between her and the demons of hell is Gideon, and boy is he one sexy, infuriating protector. Both are drawn to each other, but Maggie cannot understand why he keeps his distance from her, and as the truth is revealed, things are never quite as they seem. With some major surprises, magic, passion, and danger on every corner, can Gideon and Maggie overcome it all to be together? Or will Gideon lose everything just when his life becomes worth living?

TEMPTATION by Brenda Huber is the third instalment of the Chronicles of the Fallen series and is everything I wanted and more from this unbelievable author. Gideon is such a beautiful, troubled character who struggles with his inner demon and would do anything to protect Maggie, even if it means protecting her from himself. Maggie is strong, spirited and willing to do what it takes to defend herself and those she loves. This story has twists and turns that made my heart race and I had to read TEMPTATION in one sitting because I just had to know how it would end. Brenda Huber effortlessly weaves us into Gideon and Maggie's lives, alongside the rest of the Fallen, and they will stay in a reader's heart for a very long time. TEMPTATION by Brenda Huber is imaginative, vibrant and completely addictive and I recommend it to EVERYONE! And while you are at it, buy the entire series. You will not regret it.

SUMMARY

A demon with nothing left to lose. A Halfling who will prove him wrong.

Chronicles of the Fallen, Book 3

With the destruction of the Amulet of the Gods, Gideon’s last hope of Divine forgiveness is lost. Cursed to never know the touch of another, he spirals closer to losing control. But, for the sake of his brethren, he takes on one last mission.

His simple task, to guard a very special Halfling, quickly becomes a complicated mess. The feisty woman sets fire to his blackened soul. Curse or no curse, he will stay by her side—even though he is more of a threat to her than the demon prince plotting to take over the world.

Despite the dubious “blessing” of her birthright, Maggie is happy with a career she loves, a place of her own and a circle of good friends. But Gideon—The Demon of Temptation—seduces her out of her comfort zone and plunges her into a world she’s never known.

Entangled in the blurred lines between good and evil, desire and destruction, Maggie’s only chance for survival is to trust her very life to the one man who doesn’t even trust himself.

Warning: Contains an unpredictable demon surviving on the edge, and a desperate Halfling determined to live life on her own terms. And so continues the journey of six fallen demons and the women who capture their hearts.
