"The Archangel and his consort face this dangerous world together"

Fresh Fiction Review

Archangel's Heart
Nalini Singh

Reviewed by Annetta Sweetko

Romance Paranormal | Fantasy

There are a number of authors that are on my must read list and only a few times have I been disappointed by them. ARCHANGEL'S HEART will not disappoint on any level. Author Nalini Singh gives her readers love, action, suspense, fear and surprises wrapped into these pages, and I for one could not put it down. With Archangel Lijuan missing her territory is without leadership and the Cadre must do something, without control there is fear of vampiric bloodlust, but if they move too quickly there is further fear of war. Luminata, an ancient order of angels, has the ability to call a meeting of the Cadre and they do so. Archangel Raphael and his consort Elena must attend, but something is not right with this eerie compound. The peace they expected is tinged with an ugly feel. Elena had planned to explore this world, most especially since it is the place of her mother's people. But instead of the freedom and laughter she expects she finds fear and anger. Getting to the bottom of her family history and the mystery of the Luminata brings shocks to Elena that only her Archangel can sooth. ARCHANGEL'S HEART is simply ... amazing! I love Elena and Raphael and have enjoyed seeing the "humanizing" of her Archangel but in this book I actually could feel the love that has grown in leaps and bounds between them. Also something that I really enjoyed was getting a closer look at Aodhan. We don't get much on what "broke" the angel but we do get to see him coming more out of his shell. The surprises that are in this book for Elena, which you will have to read the book to find out what those might be, will have you wondering where Ms. Singh possibly got that twist. If you are a fan of the Guild Hunter books you are going to love this one and if you have never read this series ... what are you waiting for? This series is filled with scary, gorgeous angels; a kick-butt angel-guild hunter, warrior woman; sweet and steamy moments; action that will have you holding your breath and a number of moments that will have you laughing out loud ... what more could you ask for? ARCHANGEL'S HEART is on my TRA (to read again) shelf and I am already looking forward to the next one.

SUMMARY

New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh takes us into a dangerous and exhilarating world where a deadly, beautiful archangel and his once-mortal consort are caught in a fury of twisted darkness… One of the most vicious archangels in the world has disappeared. No one knows if Lijuan is dead or has chosen to Sleep the long sleep of an immortal. But with her lands falling into chaos under a rising tide of vampiric bloodlust, a mysterious and ancient order of angels known as the Luminata calls the entire Cadre together to discuss the fate of her territory. Accompanying her archangelic lover Raphael to the Luminata compound, guild hunter-turned-angel Elena senses that all is not as it seems. Secrets echo from within the stone walls of the compound, and the deeper Elena goes, the uglier the darkness. But neither Raphael nor Elena is ready for the brutal truths hidden within—truths that will change everything Elena thinks she knows about who she is… Nothing will ever be the same again.
