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

Now that's what I'm talking about! Edge Lines goes back to what we all LOVED about book one. The major plot line is focused on Morgan and Cassius. (No teen MF romances to be found.) The romance portion was great. Loved seeing Morgan all jealous of Victor. My heart went out to Victor though, and it was definitely a treat to get a few chapters in his head.
There is MAJOR plot movement as the fallen angels get closer to finding out what happened all those years ago during the Fall. That's all I'm gonna say about it cuz you should enjoy gobbling up the new info as much as I did. The pieces are falling into place. I'm on the edge of my seat waiting for whatever adventure Cassius and Morgan go on next.
Oh. wait. After reading, I think I have a good idea who's going to be playing a big role in Oathbreaker (book 4).

Wow, my favourite so far in the series. Loved all the context this book gave the rest of the series and there were moments that left me agape. Very thoroughly enjoyed.

Edge Lines is another brilliant addition to the series by Ava Marie Salinger. It's packed with action, drama and the continuation of the overall series plot.
It took me a moment to get into the story as I tried to remember who everyone is and the roles they play (the glossary at the beginning helps) but once it starts, there's no stopping the momentum. Cassius and Morgan are still working towards unlocking more of their memories whilst dealing with whatever is being thrown their way by those looking to free Chaos. Things take an intense turn as demigods are in need of rescue, several realms have crevasses and rifts appearing and come under attack by war demons. Another twist comes in the form of Viktor arriving in town to help, Cassius's ex. I did enjoy getting a couple of chapters from his POV as it explained a bit about him and his thoughts on things. Morgan is definitely not happy about this and the two bicker on everything except when it comes to the health and safety of Cassius. There, they fight side by side. We get a lot more characters added to the mix in this one, including the Winter God and the Wild God, along with meeting up with those that have helped along the way. I really enjoyed getting to know Loki a bit more, another entertaining addition that Morgan is not too pleased about.
It's a fast paced story that grips from the beginning as we go from fight scene to revelation to fight scene to drama. Along the way, Cassius and Morgan find more of themselves and their history leading to an emotional end and what will be a very interesting next instalment of the series.
I received an ARC and am happily giving a review.

Oh, so much is happening now. Major reveals about the MC's and a few side characters. This installment of the series gets a bit complex, so maybe don't read it when you're not in the mood to concentrate.
I loved that we got some more intense feelings from Morgan, hopefully we'll have some resolution for that soon.
If you've enjoyed the series so far, you won't be let down.

Ava Marie Salinger is back with the third book in the amazing *Fallen Messengers* series and I had the best time reading this latest one! I had high hopes for this installment after both the first and second books kept me at the edge of my seat and *Edge Lines* had me gasping and swooning and everything in between.
Building on the fantastic elements laid out in the*Fractured Souls* and *Spellbound*, we continue to see Cassius and Morgan deal with the ever growing concern of the entity that is trying to wreak havoc on Earth and, as they find out, throughout all the Heavenly and Nether realms. Without spoiling anything I think it suffices to say that there are some Very Big, Very Concerning revelations in this book as our favourite demigods finally get some much needed answers to what happened in their past. Much like the previous novel, along for the ride are some new and highly entertaining faces like Pan who is just as sassy and just as amorous as legend makes him out to be, as well as some familiar faces in Victor who creates some inevitable tension just by his presence. However, since the stakes are higher than ever, we see everyone combining their collective strengths to protect all the realms, go on a rescue mission, and prevent the very fabric of reality from descending into chaos.
Apart from the nail biting action, and the excellently choreographed fight scenes, I really enjoyed the quiet moments between Morgan and Cassius and particularly seeing Cassius’s more vulnerable side which is juxtaposed with the impressive ways in which his abilities are growing. It’s delightful to be able to spend so much time with these characters and really delve into the nuanced and complex beings that they are. As always, Loki is, personally, the star of the show and I was utterly delighted with what he brought to the story. I cannot stress enough how fabulous this series is with its world building only getting better and better as the series progresses. Given what we learned in *Edge Lines* I am going to be counting down the days until the next book drops!
*Edge Lines* releases on the 18th of this month and the first two books are available for purchase or to read via KU now. I was thrilled to receive an ARC for this book through GRR and give it 5 big stars!
