As with all the other Dirk and Steele books, we meet a
couple who are more than what we would call normal. Blue
has been made to find a brother, the legitimate son of his
wealthy father. On his quest, he comes across a woman who
draws him to her like no other. Iris is a woman who has
hidden herself in a Las Vegas circus show. Somehow Blue
and Iris must make things work between them as they fight
to stay alive. Will Blue find his brother and on whose side
will he be?
EYE OF HEAVEN is a reissue of a great installment in the
Dirk and Steele Agency series. I am always excited to see a
book come out in this series, and I was not disappointed
with this one. Blue is a complex man who goes through so
much in this story, mentally and physically. Not only does
he deal with the idea of loosing a parent but also finding a
brother. That in itself is enough for one person but Blue
has also found Iris, his true love. Iris is a strong woman
who must take care of herself and learn to love not only
Blue but herself as well. As the two try to figure out what
is between them, they must deal with all the rest that is
going on. Along with Daniel, they must keep each other safe
and find a way back home and to the Dirk and Steele Agency.
Marjorie M. Liu weaves a magical story full of many twists
and turns. This story has many small subplots
that join together and bring the main storyline together in
a beautiful way. Not only do we get Blue and Iris's story
but we also get to revisit characters from
previous books. I love the way that each new couple always
gets some kind of help from other members of the agency and
this couple is no different. The friendships that develop
are strong and prove that there are those that can always
be counted on. I enjoyed watching the bonds of trust and
love develop in this book and cannot wait to see whose
story will be told next.
Like every member of the Dirk & Steele Agency, Blue
Perrineau is far from "normal"—and he believes in the
organization's creed: Protect the innocent in secrecy. Now
an obligation to the family that rejected him is leading
Blue into the light and shadow of Sin City . . . and to a
remarkable woman, beautiful, desirable, and untamed.
Iris is a headliner in Vegas, dazzling crowds with her feral
sensuality and her uncanny affinity for dangerous beasts.
But there is a darkness in her world that she never knew
existed, and a champion has appeared to protect her—a man
charged with electricity, who guards a secret as strange and
powerful as her own. And every secret is a liability when
darkest evil exists that follows no rule under heaven. Yet
with passion and love sustaining them, together Blue and
Iris might yet live to see the dawn.
