“Crap on a cracker the size of Texas” is an actual thing that’s said out loud in this book. And I still read this in one sitting.
This is trash, I am trash, I have no regrets.

This spin off series start gave me all I would have wanted in the first series. Plus Roth! It was like everything and more.
Zayne is still kind of broody and I’m hoping we see more growth from him in the coming books.
Trinity is a lot like Layla which at first was off putting. But there was more dimension to Trinity.
Looking forward to reading the next books!

Storm & Fury had everything I love about JLA. Her books are just so easy to read and get in to, I always enjoy them so much!
This first book in the trilogy was a great spin-off to the Dark Elements series and I loved seeing Zayne and a few others from the original trilogy. I have read TDE but it's been a while so I really appreciated all the recap JLA put in to the book. You don't miss out by not having read the Dark Elements but I do recommend it as a trilogy as well!
I think I was a bit indifferent to Zayne in TDE, knowing he wouldn't be Layla's endgame, so I was so pleasantly surprised by how much I love him in this one!
It also ended with a typical JLA ending where I need the next one now - this is exactly why I waited until all three books were released before picking them up!

This series is a spin off of another JLA series. I did not read The Dark Elements series before beginning this one. It would probably be better to read that one first, as there are characters from that book here, but it did not take away my enjoyment.
The book is set primarily in modern day D.C. There are angels and demons working to maintain the balance between good and evil. Although, something is coming, and everyone is worried. There are also Wardens, think gargoyle shifters, who hunt demons in order to protect unsuspecting humans from being hurt or killed. It’s a fun spin on a classic angels/demons world.
I loved our two main characters. Trinity was immature at times, but overall she was tough and independent and loyal to her clan. Zayne is amazing. He was featured heavily in The Dark Elements series, and this series was his time to shine and get his happy ending. I really loved getting to know him and seeing his growth.
Some aspects were a bit predictable, but I really enjoyed everything! There are a ton of Supernatural references, which is fine, but should be noted!

Pretty cliche in almost every way. Super powerful, combat trained, strong woman… who is just oh so clumsy and inexplicably still needs a male body guard, who by the way is super hot, to justify inane reasons to physically touch her all the time. Throw in a not so shocking betrayal, a “if you just talked to each other about your feelings this would be resolved” romantic subplot and a book full of hints to various tragic backstories and you have this mediocre YA modern urban fantasy.
It wasn’t bad, but I’ve heard it all done (better) before.
Did not enjoy nearly as much as her other series.
