I am enjoying the relationship between Morgan and Cassius as it evolves. Morgan's jealousy is cute, but it is starting to get a bit out of control.
The idea of having angels for main characters without over-explaining their background was interesting. Now, the author is starting to build more mythology into the story, and some of that mythology feels a bit unpolished to me. I am a fan of interesting twists on existing mythology. A good storyteller can make an old tale feel new again. I am not sure how I feel about the twists in this series though. I keep expecting Sam and Dean to make an appearance...
For some reason, I didn't feel that the revelations regarding Cassius' past suit him. I am curious about where this story is heading, so I will be listening to the next book. I am also getting addicted to the narrator's voice.

While I found Morgan’s jealousy a bit much in this book, there was a lot I did like. This book reveals a few things regarding Cassius’s identity, but not everything about the fall. We meet quite a few new characters and the plot thickens, as they say.

Eagles away
“He would travel to the ends of the Nine Hells to be with Morgan.” Holy… what did I just read… oh my gods… I can’t even… This. Book. Is. Freaking. Amazing!! I am literally sitting here writing this and all I see in my head are vivid, earthshaking, chilling, emotional, heart pounding, hilarious—ohmygods, so funny—and breathtaking scenes from this epic book repeating in my head. So many lessons learned, like sheesh, do gods know how to hold grudges and beware who you take to bars for drinks.
Morgan and Cassius are phenomenal. So dreamy and sensual, their connection both thrills and warms my heart, among other things. What a swoon-worthy love these two have. And what incredible friends they have. I am in awe of what we learned and holding my breath at what is still to come. The suspense and world-building in this series blows my mind. Each new reveal and with how it’s all coming together, I love it so much. I just want to gobble it up and savor it all at the same time. You’ll fly while reading, and though the entire book is truly fantastic, like *chef’s kiss*, the scene at the end is perfect.

4.5* secrets are revealed
Things are so good in this series, I loved it. The attacks upon earth and the other realms are becoming increasingly urgent and dangerous for the MC's. Cassius and Morgan are finally getting answers but it may not be what they want to hear. Victor makes an appearance which I have been waiting for.
This is a great series that is gripping right from the start, I have already pre-ordered the next book. I can't wait for it.

AM Salinger probably had a hotline to my brain because she just wrote a book that pressed ALL my buttons.
Let's have a Q&A:
Q: All the buttons you say? And what, pray tell, are all those buttons?
A: Let's see.. Angels and demons falling in love, urban fantasy, action and suspense, secrets, a possessive jealous alpha male demon who only has eyes for his angel.... Need I say more? #Drool
Q: Well, no you don't have to say more. *runs to Amazon*
A: No wait! I have alot more things to say! #Don'tSensorMe
Q: Ok. Talk while I'm downloading.
A: First, you have to start from book 1: [b:Fractured Souls|57801558|Fractured Souls (Fallen Messengers #1)|Ava Marie Salinger|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1628440218l/57801558._SX50_.jpg|90543312]. You CAN'T read them out of order. Then, hold on to your butt and hang on for the ride. #GetReady
Q: So, it's an overarching plot?
A: Yup! a very big baddie wants to destroy all the realms, including Earth, and our MCs are on the frontline of the cavalry. #ArmorsOn
Q: And the MCs are still lovable?
A: Oh yeah. Deep, layered characters. and as powerful as they both are, they both show a vulnerable side that just makes them all the more approachable and endearing. #Nuanced
Q: What about the romance-o-meter?
A: Gah... so swoony! These men are just everything to the other. They are so in love and that love makes them stronger. #NothingButYou
Q: Oh my heart! And the angst-o-meter?
A: No angst between the two MCs. Lowish angst from outside sources. #GoingStrong
Q: Steam-o-meter?
A: Medium angst, but what there is is SUPER HOT. #PantiesWentPoof
Q: What about the ending
A: It's a solid HFN for the MCs and the plot. I can't wait for the next one! #GimmeMore

This book was action packed! I loved how the story/plot is progressing. We are taken to new realms, introduced to important players and get to witness Morgan being all possessive. What more could you want?
What I loved most about this volume is that we get to finally learn who our bad guy is. He has been lurking in the shadows for the past 2 books, but he gets more scene time here. We learn what his goal is and why the Fallen have lost their memories. Bonus: we more Loki time too!
This is a must read book. It is a continuation, so you need to read the prior volumes before this one.

ah-maaaaazing!!!
This book was so absolutely amazing bringing lots of action and heat. I feel like I can’t fully even review without spewing spoilers everywhere. So so so much happens! I was ecstatic to see Victor FINALLY making an appearance outside of the prequel as he’s only mentioned in books 1 and 2. Poor Cassius stuck in the middle and I’m sure this isn’t the end. A LOT of questions are answered about the past while many paving the way for many many more questions, at least for me. Bring on book 4! And if you’re into audiobooks like I am I heavily recommend picking them up as Alex Kydd does the best job bringing all of these characters to life. I can’t wait for him to record this book and those going forward.
