Avenger's Angel

September 5, 2011
Bestseller Killough-Walden (The Hunt) launches the Lost Angels series with this unfocused paranormal romance. Uriel, the archangel of vengeance, has spent centuries searching for his archess, or soul mate. When he recognizes her in bookstore worker Eleanore Granger, Uriel is determined to win her heart. Ellie has spent her life hiding from mysterious men who want to exploit her supernatural abilities. While she’s attracted to Uriel, Ellie isn’t sure that she wants to be a part of the archangel world, but with her enemies getting closer, Ellie may not get the chance to decide—or figure out how she really feels about Uriel. The destiny-driven plot and mix of angels and vampires may appeal to paranormal fans, but the romance takes a backseat to other story elements, which will disappoint readers who look for action between the sheets rather than in the streets.
