“When I create works of art, I do it because it is part of me and I must create. But afterward, when the work is done, I hope that it’ll speak to people, that it’ll open up their hearts or their minds. That cannot happen if the art is buried for safekeeping.”
― Nalini Singh, Archangel's Heart

“No power is worth you, Elena-mine. I would give up immortality for a single mortal lifetime with you.”

“I love you,” he said, his eyes locked with hers. “From the roots of my hair to the tips of my toes. From yesterday to tomorrow and every tomorrow we will ever see. From this moment to the mystery beyond death. Every part of you, slow or fast, small or big, strong or weak. I love you, Holly.” - Nalini Singh, Archangel's Viper

Review: Archangel's Shadows (Guild Hunter #7) by Nalini Singh

Image
From Goodreads:
In the wake of a brutal war, the archangel Raphael and his hunter consort, Elena, are dealing with the treacherously shifting tides of archangelic politics and the people of a battered but not broken city. The last thing their city needs is more death, especially a death that bears the eerie signature of an insane enemy archangel who cannot—should not—be walking the streets.

This hunt must be undertaken with stealth and without alerting their people. It must be handled by those who can become shadows themselves…

Ash is a gifted tracker and a woman cursed with the ability to sense the secrets of anyone she touches. But there’s one man she knows all too well without a single instant of skin contact: Janvier, the dangerously sexy Cajun vampire who has fascinated and infuriated her for years. Now, as they track down a merciless killer, their cat-and-mouse game of flirtation and provocation has turned into a profound one of the heart. And this time, it is Ash’s secret, dark an…

Review: Archangel's Legion

Angels are falling from the sky in New York, struck down by a vicious, unknown force.

Vampires are dying impossibly of disease.


Guild hunter Elena Deveraux and the Archangel Raphael must discover the source of the wave of death before it engulfs their city and their people, leaving New York a ruin and Raphael’s Tower under siege by enemy archangels.


Yet even as they fight desperately to save the city, an even darker force is stirring, its chill eyes trained on New York…and on Raphael. Rivers of crimson and nightmares given flesh, the world will never again be the same…


My job when I review a book is to convince you why you should read it, if I liked it, or why you should not read it, if I did not like it. As it turns out, I liked this book, but I have slightly mixed feelings about the series as a whole. I'm an old Guild Hunter fan, so I've given this book and this series a lot of thought. Join me after the jump for some mildly spoilery thoughts on this latest installment of th…

“He was trying to make me his bed buddy. I declined. He gave chase."
... "How, exactly, did you 'decline' his offer?"
"By slitting his throat."
The silence in the garage was broken only by the sound of water drip-dripping somewhere in the distance. Sara just stared. So did Ransom. Then the idiot male started laughing hysterically. He laughed so hard he fell off the bike and onto the scarred concrete of the garage floor. Even that didn't stop him.
Elena would've kicked him, except he'd probably use the chance to pull her down with him. "Shut up before I do the same to you."
He tried to stop laughing. Failed. "Jesus, Ellie. You are awesome!”

Illium arrived before she could respond, landing to grab a seat beside Aodhan.  "Why are we sitting on a bridge presenting postcard shots to the tourists on that boat?"  he asked, waving at said tourists, who jumped up and down, their squeals carrying on the winds.

"No one noticed us until you deliberately did a low flyby over that same boat," Aodhan pointed out.

"Wave to the nice tourists, Sparkle.  I promise it won't cause pestilence and firestorms."

Elena bit the inside of her cheek at Aodhan's glare--she'd never seen anyone crack his reserved shell.  "Sparkle and Bluebell, nice."

"Do you scent the same things I do?"

Ransom made a face when she described what she'd picked up from the passing vamp. "Yeah, except I don't say shit like 'cinnamon spice with a hint of burnt oak.' I say 'dude smells like an electrified tree with a side of doughnut topping.'"

You are wearing no panties with another male in the room?" Raphael ran his hand down Elena's spine and over her lower curves, searching for lines and finding nothing but firm feminine flesh. "You truly aren't." 
Elena's shoulders shook, deep creases in her cheeks. "Oh, my God, you're scandalized!" Eyes tearing up in the effort to fight her laughter, she pressed her hands to his chest and stared down at the floor.
"Should I tell you I did find a way to wear a knife? In a thigh sheath."
"Of course you did. What do panties matter so long as you have your steel.”

"This blend," he murmured, bending his head, "is about sex."  She put her hands on his chest but it wasn't a protest.  After the blood, the fear, she needed to touch him, to know this glorious creature existed.  

"Another form of mind control?"  He shook his head, his mouth a hairbreadth from hers.  

"It is only fair."  

"Fair?"  She flicked her tongue along his lower lip.  It made his hands clench on her hips.  

"If I licked you between your thighs, your taste would have the same aphrodisiac effect on me."
