Avengers Angel: Lost Angels Book 1: Lost Angels: Book One

---

Don't try to get away, do you understand? Uriel's hand was out from between them and once more wrapped around her throat in a flash. He used it to pull her up and against him, squeezing in warning. I don't care if your name is Admiral Sexy Beast and your bowel movements give women orgasms. Isn't this basic stuff? You know, like how we've collectively decided not to stab our loved ones with steak knives. Some things just don't fall in my gray area. To add insult to injury, he's a total dick about Ellie's grip on the headboard.

Is that what happens if an archess disobeys her archangel, or is this just an asshole vampire thing? Uriel eventually grabs her by the hair and yanks her head back so he has access to the veins in her neck. I'd just like to SEE my husband try to grab me by the hair. Oh, but he wouldn't try something like that. In one clean, driving shove, he ripped through her virginity and rendered it in two. My rage has yet again reached a boiling level, so I won't share anymore quotes with you.

You should know that when Ellie finally loses grip on that freaking headboard, Uriel ends up biting and feeding from her. I'm pretty sure romance is dead now. It may never recover from the bad vibes this book put out into the universe. You may be relieved to learn that Ellie has an earth-shattering orgasm from being turned into Uriel's chew toy and kneeling submissive.

I'm not relieved, though. I'm just done with the godawful book and its godawful message. If the writing had been decent, perhaps the romance wouldn't have turned into an American Horror Story, but I can only judge on what was presented to me. I wouldn't recommend this book to my cats. They have more respect for people than the hard-bodied arch"angel" Uriel has for the love of his life in this book. So this is apparently my limit - rape disguised as romance.

He told the archangels that he wished to reward them for their loyalty and had created for them soul mates. Four perfect female beings—archesses. However, before the archangels could claim their mates, the four archesses were lost to them and scattered to the wind, beyond their realm and reach. The archangels made the choice to leave their world, journey to Earth, and seek out their mates.

For thousands of years, the archangels have searched. But they have not searched alone. For they are not the only entities to leave their realm and come to Earth to hunt for the archesses. They were followed by another. Names, titles, powers, abilities… I felt like I needed to take notes just so I could follow along. I don't want to have to stop and think, 'Wait, which angel is that?

Yet, I feel the need to mention that I found there to be a lot of repetition in places, so maybe that was the author's way of trying to help us remember those details? Now for the good stuff! It was fast paced and action packed, and with bad guys coming out of the woodwork our Archangels were kept on their toes! Uriel suddenly became this incredibly sexy, alpha being who was protective and tormented… and I fell hard for him. Ellie, his archess, is a female who had her own brand of tormented to deal with, and I loved how they finally came together, a perfect match.

His jaw dropped open. Not here, in a bathroom — after two thousand years. No, that was impossible. He was relatively invincible. Being hit on the head would do nothing to him but make him a little cranky. She was really standing there before him. She was real; he could see her, hear her— he could even smell her.

A Novel of the Lost Angels

She smelled like shampoo and soap and lavender. Jesus, he thought, unable to refrain from letting his gaze drop down her body and back up again. She was everything that he had ever imagined she would be, from her tall, slim body to her long jet- black hair, and those indigo blue eyes the color of a Milky Way night.

Her skin was like porcelain. Her lips were plump and pink and framed perfect, white teeth. She was an angel. She was his archess. I'm excited by the groundwork that has been laid for the future books, and I'm really looking forward to reading more about Michael, Gabriel, Azrael and their Guardian, Max, and even Samael, one very bitter angel known as The Fallen One. They each have their own demons to battle and I can't wait for their stories.

I have no doubt whatsoever that this will be an awesome series, one I have every intention of continuing. I wish to thank Signet Eclipse and netgalley. View all 15 comments. View all 4 comments. Everywhere I turned it seemed to be getting such rave reviews. I'm not sure what book they were reading but it definitely wasn't this book. Don't get me wrong, this book is not in any way horrible, it actually has a lot of potential.

I just am at a point that I'm just so frustrated with how things are playing themselves out that I just can't physically pick it up right now. This book actually had me tossing my Kindle onto the table in frustration. The premise behind this series is really good. I love the idea of four different archangels that have come to earth to find their achess their soulmate created just for each of them. In fact I loved the first quarter of this story. It's fast paced and action packed.

I start to have problems a little before midway and then they just seem to keep piling themselves on one after another. I think there is just too much happening within the book. I'm not sure if it's because this is the first in a new series, but there's just a bit much going on for my tastes. Uriel, the Angel of Vengeance has all but given up hope of ever finding his archess.

His brothers and himself have been looking for years with no success. So they've all have found ways to acclimate themselves into the new world. One is a Firefighter, another a Police Officer, and one is a Singer in a popular rock band. Uriel has taken it upon himself to become an actor. He has become Christopher Daniels one of the most famous actors in the world.

While Uriel is out attending a signing at a bookstore in Texas he comes across a woman healing a small child which he immediately recognizes her as his archess. Eleanor is "special" and she doesn't know why. For as long as she can remember she has been able to control the weather, use telekinesis and heal others. Her abilities have made her a target and because of them, she has constantly been on the move since she was a kid.

So when Christopher Daniels walks in and catches her healing a young girl she doesn't quite know how to react. She isn't sure if he poses a threat or not. When Christopher Daniels decides to ask Eleanore out on a date to a Gala, she isn't sure she should accept. Yes, she is insanely attracted to him, but he's very popular and she can't risk the exposure. I love the initial chemistry between these two but after awhile it just starts to fizzle. I stop believing in them and I honestly start to not like either of them.

Uriel, in the beginning is so charming and lovable. Then certain things happens and he does a complete I don't really understand at all how Eleanore could find herself attracted to him. He becomes possessive and slightly domineering. He isn't concerned with her feelings only making himself feel better. I couldn't even finish reading their love scene because it came off feeling more of a taking rather than a couple loving each other. Eleanore is a virgin and is someone who has never been kissed and to see her first love scene to be so brutal was just heartbreaking. I get that not everyone likes it gentle and slow, but does it really have to be so rough?

After seeing Uriel take her with his hands around her throat I was done. I just don't believe it and the love that they both supposedly have for each other.

I'm sorry but that's not love. Again, I really enjoyed the premise of this series and I found myself really enjoying all of the other characters. I think I will definitely try another in this series and hope that it's better than this book. View all 3 comments. Jun 17, Ren rated it liked it Recommends it for: PNR lovers who love Angel Theme. I will not tell about the story just want to explain why I give this book 3 stars instead 4 or 5 stars.

Uriel the former archangel of vengeance a. His action kinda remind me of hero at old bodice ripper novel. Actually not too jerk, he can be charming sometimes. But mostly he act as Neanderthal when its concern Eleanore. He redeem himself near the end of story, but not so much. Eleanore is Uriel's archess, his soul mate. But I found their chemistry are lack of emotion. Too rushed, too forced.

Eleanore is a virgin who never been kissed before. I'm not complaint about this. I know maybe America people will laugh about this, because its seems weird for their culture, but not mine. What bother me the most is why she easily accept Uriel as soul mate, and their love scene make me cringe. Even Ms Killough-Walden explain that's what Eleanore want, to mix pleasure and pain, me as readers think the otherwise.

If I'm on Eleanore side I want my first time to be oh-so-romantic, not include my partner strangle my neck and hurt me hide spoiler ] The funny part is when Eleanore have more chemistry with the villain, the fallen angel, Samael. Huh, I just want Eleanore forget Uriel and become Samael's lover! I love Max, the angel's guardian. I'm intrigued and want to know more about his relationship with Lilith, Samael's companion. And Uriel's brethren too. From Michael, a former Warrior Angel, who seems like the oldest of them all and act as leader, he's the brotherly figure.

Gabriel the former Messenger's Angel, with his sexy Scotland brogue. He seems like to fight and quarrel with Uriel, but he is the man who care and love Uriel deeply than the other. The last is Azrael. As former Angel of Death, Azrael is the first of four archangel who succumb to the darkness and become vampire. He become a famous rockstar and who doesn't love a rockstar.

Tall, dark and dangerous BTW, I find the authors like to use this sentence to describe Uriel and another archangels. I love Azrael, despite his dark side, like other archangel, he care too to them and Eleanore. Its shocked me, when I find the villain is more interesting than the hero. Samael is fallen angel, since he rebel against Old Man, because Old Man doesn't want to give him a soul mate.

Samael is cunning, calculated, cool and confident. Mix all of them and you will swoon over him. Even he's so evil and want Uriel's archess for himself, he never threat Eleanore badly. Well, their relationship seems real and natural rather than Uriel-Eleanore. I hope Ms Killough-Walden will write his own story. I'm intrigued when read the synopsis.

Avenger's Angel

That's why when its available at NetGalley, I'm not hesitant to request it. In the end, its just not surpassed my expectation. I want something epic for this book, but find it near the end story. The early part almost boring and some part just annoyed me. Like what I explain above, the first part kinda slow. But when the archangels meet the true villain, that's when I love the story. I'm not expected the twist and looking forward to read more about the enemies. The epilogue not the best, but its part what I love the most from this book.

With the pros and cons, the strength and the weakness, I still enjoy reading Avenger's Angel. Its just not meet my expectation. But I will reading the next book Messenger's Angel. The second book is story about Gabriel, the former Messenger's Angel and his archess, Juliette. We get a brief info about Juliette in this book. I hope Juliette and Gabriel have more chemistry rather than Uriel-Eleanore. I love to start a new paranormal romance series and the first book in The Lost Angels series really rocks!!

It has not only romance, it has a lot of action and great plot. These archange I love to start a new paranormal romance series and the first book in The Lost Angels series really rocks!! These archangels are on Earth the last two thousand years in search of their perfect mates that God has create for them. After two thousand years, the first of these women make her appearance, but she has no idea about her purpose in life. And the lucky archangel has to deal with a lot of trouble!

But yes, Uriel is a famous actor and he promotes his new movie in which he plays a vampire!! When he meets Ellie, a simple woman who works in a bookstore he realizes that this woman is his Archess, the woman God has create for him. From when she was a little girl, she had the ability to heal and she had to be very careful so her parents had her mostly at home.

One day, some people tried to have her for their own purposes and from then she was moving in order to stay hidden. Ellie is a lovable person. Uriel is sexy, smart and I love the way he treats her. He spend thousands of years searching for his mate because he was lonely and although Ellie is a young woman she was also very lonely. I loved all the other archangels also!

Michael, Gabriel and Azrael my favorite! Max is their guardian and I really liked him and I want to know more about him in the future because I understood that there is a big story for him! Of course, there is Samael. I think that he has to many secrets and I really want a whole book about him! So, great story, great characters and great love scene! What else do you need for reading a book?? I definitely recommend it!!

Aug 16, Alba M. En cuanto a Ellie, pues no. El argumento te mantiene enganchada porque entre los ataques y que quieren conseguir a su arco As a reward for their devotion, and flawless service, four favored Archangels, were given a special blessing.

A revolt arose in Heaven because of the jealousy over the favored status of the four, causing the Archesses to fall from the sky and land in the emerging human population, and the four Archangels decided to follow and search for their promised mates.

After fruitless millenia of searching, the four have assimilated into modern culture and all but given up hope of finding their Archesses. I was not familiar with Heather Killough-Walden's previous works, and to be perfectly honest, had not heard a lot of buzz concerning this book, but I was taken in by the blurb and thought "Why not? Best gamble I've taken in years!! As my friends at Goodreads can tell you, my updates were fast and furious while I read this book.

This book had more twist and turns than a rollercoaster. The writing was intelligent but not so detailed and complicated that it lagged. The characters were fun, sexy and people I would have over for drinks and strip poker. Eleanor Granger, Uriel's heroine was absolutely great, and you know I am no pushover in the heroine department.

I am also a huge fan of a redeemable villain with shades of grey. I wanted to surgically implant this book so I would never be without it and perhaps absorb some part of these awesome beings. Sep 18, Christine rated it really liked it Shelves: What I thought was going to be a formula PNR book immortal guy meets human girl, knows her instantly as "his" and then proceeds to 'win' her over started out right, but about halfway through gave a violent plot twist and then just kept on twisting.

The second half of this book I could NOT have anticipated, and with a genre that has this formula down to a science to the point where I confuse several series and characters with each other, this book stands out. Azrael and Ellie were great together What I thought was going to be a formula PNR book immortal guy meets human girl, knows her instantly as "his" and then proceeds to 'win' her over started out right, but about halfway through gave a violent plot twist and then just kept on twisting. Azrael and Ellie were great together! After the epic plot twist, I was sure there would be more conflict between them.

And producing not one, but TWO villainous characters threw me for a bit. Toward the end, though, alliances and feelings change, which was interesting for the overall arc and made me wonder where Heather would take all of this. Heather's actually confirmed it's about Gabriel. I have a feeling Azrael's book is going to be great, too. Heck, all of them will probably be good, which is why I'm definitely going to be reading them.

Jun 29, Torzilla marked it as did-not-finish Shelves: I wanted to like this title, but upon setting my Kindle down back in August, I have not had the desire to pick this book back up. It's a pity--especially since I was so looking forward to this novel. I know that plenty will gobble this book up, despite the fact that I did not enjoy this title. Incredibly interesting premise, but it seems that I am not alone in I wanted to like this title, but upon setting my Kindle down back in August, I have not had the desire to pick this book back up.

Incredibly interesting premise, but it seems that I am not alone in my dislike for Uriel. Perhaps when I am less pressed to review books, I will return to this one and give it another shot. Ah well, I'd suggest borrowing from a friend, if possible. If you want to buy it, read a sample of this at the very least. Whatever you do, don't write it off just because of my complaints.

Mentre leggevo mi sono sentita offesa all'idea che qualcuno pensasse una roba del genere potesse divertirmi, e non riesco a capire come abbia raggiunto la pubblicazione. Speravo la serie fosse una barca di pesci d'aprile, o di avere una versione fallata in questo ci spero ancora.

Con gli angeli ho avuto un imprinting degno di nota: Angel Sanctuary, bellissimo manga di Kaori Yuki. Questo vuol dire due cose: Del tipo che mi serve Neil Gaiman con o senza l'ausilio di Terry Pratchett per non essere delusa. O Viggo Mortensen che fa Lucifero. Li ha fatti tutti maschi. Maschi alpha bellissimi, machissimi, carichi di testosterone Qui si inizia a capire il dramma. Il Vecchio ha quindi un'altra geniale idea: Un fidanzata a cranio. Quattro pulzelle apposta per loro. Loro sono felici, tutti gli altri un po' meno. Ma si potrebbe ancora risolvere: Scatta la guerra civile.

Le cherubine, nel frattempo, vengono spedite sulla Terra per protezione suppongo che a quel punto volessero stuprarle in gruppo. I quattro arcangeli le seguono, riuscendo pure a perdersi. Sai, in caso non facessero i salti di gioia all'idea di mollare baracca e burattini per loro e provassero a ribellarsi. Sul serio, ad un certo punto Ellie pensa a come non voglia separarsi da Uriel per poi aggiungere che anche in caso lui non glielo permetterebbe. Si aggiunge lo stile. Ha anche una storia confusa: Lilith, comprensibilmente, mostra il dito medio e viene quindi cacciata sulla Terra.

O intendi che dal Giardino dell'Eden viene spedita sulla Terra? Lo odio sul serio. Per Angel Sanctuary, non sono pignola: Sfortunatamente non ero dell'umore adatto per vederli come omaggi. Qui le cose si fanno confuse: La storia d'amore, la guerra con Samael o quella introdotta dopo due terzi abbondanti di libro quando arrivano i Leviatani, voglio dire gli Adariani? Bel libero arbitrio del cavolo. Ma scusate, forse volete sapere cosa sono i Leviatani, no, gli Adariani. Sono il primo tentativo di creare angeli del Vecchio. E fidatevi che se siete peggio del Dio di Supernatural vi conviene farvi qualche domanda sulle vostre competenze divine.
