Fresh Fiction Review

Immortally Yours
Angie Fox

Reviewed by Vicky Gilpin

Romance Paranormal

Dr. Petra Robichaud was recruited, forever, by the gods into a MASH unit. Recruitment in this war isn't exactly voluntary: if you've got the skills, you go to serve. However, not only is Petra a great doctor, she has another skill she tries to keep under the radar for fear of being killed. She can see the dead.

There's a prophecy about the end of the war and peacetime, but messing with prophecies is a dangerous business. That's why, when she rescues a handsome commander with more than just her recognized medical skills, and a bronze knife starts following her around, she figures the best thing she can do is forget the man, her unusual abilities, the knife, and, most of all, forget the prophecy. Or get drunk. Or assist her werewolf and vampire roommates in practical jokes. However, Commander Galen of Delphi will not be put off from his mission, and it seems the fates are in his favor. Just like the knife, the man will not go away, even when she tries to transfer him out. Unwittingly, she falls in love with both Galen and his irresistible sense of honor, but can they save the world with the small things when all the big things conspire against not only peace, but also all of the mortals caught up in the war?

IMMORTALLY YOURS as much as I did. I expected it to be good and somewhat romantic and interesting, and it was. However, the humor and little details, as well as the fact it had an amazing theme snuck in, just made me LOVE it.

How long it takes for people to earn leave, the emotions of those communicating back home, the interactions among the MASH unit members, particularly keeping in mind that some used to be worshiped, were all fantastically developed. IMMORTALLY YOURS flew by. I'm thinking I'll get the Angie Fox's Demon Slayer books because what others have noted about that series are the characteristics that are so positive here: the humor combined with the character- building.

SUMMARY

IN THE WAR BETWEEN THE GODS…

No one patches up the incoming wounded like Dr. Petra Robichaud. Recruited by the gods for her uncanny medical skills, she’s the best M*A*S*H surgeon in the army. Along with a nosy guard sphinx,vegetarian werewolf, and otherparanormal paramedics, she bandages soldiers who are built like Greek gods (literally). But when one sexy immortal ends up on her operating table—half dead and totally to-die-for—Petra’s afraid she’ll lose her patient and her heart…

NOTHING IS MORE DANGEROUS THAN LOVE

Commander Galen of Delphi is one gorgeous but stubborn demi-god. When his spirit tries to slip out of his fatally wounded body, Dr. Petra has to slip it back in—unwittingly revealing her ability to see ghosts. Now that Galen knows her secret, he’s convinced she’s part of an ancient prophecy. If the oracles are right, Petra could lead Galen’s army to peace. And if he seduces her on the way to hell and back? Heaven knows—all’s fair in love and war…
