Angels Fall by Nora Roberts

5.0

I finished this book in three days because I could. not. put. it. down!

Somehow, this is the first Nora Roberts book I’ve ever read— I can assure you it will not be the last!

Let’s start with the characters. Reece is a compelling, if complicated, heroine. She has a traumatic past and some leftover scars, but she doesn’t let it stop her from living her life. Brody, her romantic interest, is rough around the edges and doesn’t coddle Reece, but that’s what makes him so wonderful. Their witty banter is laugh-out-loud funny and adorable. The other characters in the novel are supportive and likable and well-fleshed out.

The plot is also excellent. This mystery is one I didn’t figure out right until the end when it was revealed. The killer is not at all who I suspected, but that’s the point! I never saw it coming, I kept changing who I thought it might be, and I couldn’t stop reading this because I had to know what happened next.

Angels Fall is truly one of the best mysteries I’ve read. It has exactly the right amount of romance and suspense, and I desperately wish that there was a sequel!
