If you love love stories with angels, then this is a great story for you. Gabriella has spent her life working to prove, and disprove, the supernatural, so when three supposedly ancient bodies arrive at her lab looking all but alive, she is shocked that she might just have the discovery of a lifetime on her hands. There are chase scenes, the FBI is involved, the good guys may not all be good, and the bad guys just might not be what you think they are. The whole story was well written, the characters are great, and the romance was both sweet and uplifting. I would read more from this author. This was, in essence, a 740 page free sample with no ending. A ruse to suck you in and get you to purchase the next books in the series. Which I won't be doing.I don't know who the author intended as her target audience. The book is too juvenile for adults but has too much of a sexual/"romance" under-current to be for kids. (No actual sex but there is an abundance of, uh, lust going on.)The heroine was not at all heroic. She spent the entire book crying, weeping, sobbing (in tears of various colors depending on author's whim) while burying her head in the protective embrace of her male lust-interest. Many times she couldn't/woudn't even open her eyes to see whatever crisis was happening.She is supposed to be the most powerful character in the book yet she does nothing, she is always being protected and rescued by the other characters.She is unlikable from the very beginning and as the book continues she becomes downright unbearable. The author doesn't give enough background or engage in enough "character development" to give us any reason to like or care about her. Which makes it all the more implausible when both male leads fall for her instantly. Why? They must have had some insight into her character that the author failed to give us readers.Moving past the lead character... The story is dis-jointed and convoluted and what the characters can or can't do seems to change every other page, the author's later "explanations" always being a spell. It feels as though the author just makes up powers (or lack thereof) for her characters as she goes along, whenever it's conveniant to the situation at hand. We know by the end of the book that the heroes can teleport, become invisible, and cast spells to make immortals human. If these three abilities had been employed consistantly throughout the story, there wouldn't have been a story.Much of the writing was repetitive and there was too much time spent on unimaginative descriptions of some things, like the angels (always physically beautiful, the females always in white robes with flowing long hair...gag) while other things that badly needed detail to enhance the story were not given any. Battles between the angels, for example. Just loud noises, flashing lights, and inspecific spells being thrown about. These were supposed to be terrifying battles but the author gave no desciption to make them feel so. (Plus, referring back to my above paragraph, the battles were needless anyways.)A tale that had potential but was very poorly executed.
Do You like book Shadow Of The Sun (2010)?
Very repetitive.. Her mind is blown...blah blah at least the cover was pretty
