Book Reviews of The Prince's Angel
Book Review: Hot vampires, hotter angels
Summary: 5 Stars
Hmmm....wow. I think in this instance I would like to give more than five stars. "The Prince's Angel" is a finely crafted urban fantasy with a beautiful gay romance at the heart. And with it, they take slow built passion to a new level. The two protagonists dance around each other, and their own feelings, suffering a lot of angst in the process. Quite delicious, really, as is the sex when they finally give in to one another. This is not to say there is a lack of horizontal action in the book; it just enhances the story rather than being the story. Oh, and the authors took the trouble to build a plot with mystery and action too. Naughty authors.
In the 1970's, vampires' existence was revealed to the world. In the present, they have rights, but also a ruling body with laws to govern them. Any vampire who acts outside these laws is rogue. Mael Black is the vampire Prince of London. And he has a steadily growing rogue problem. Now, many authors have inserted vampires into "regular" society as a story vehicle. Similarities to to Laurell K. Hamilton's Anita Blake universe (with Princes of a City rather than Master of a City) can be seen, but there is a new twist. Heaven isn't just some vague notion - and angels are real. Enter Cian Carmichael. He is one of many angels sent by God to protect humanity and hunt rogues. Yup, he has wings! As the problem in London reaches dangerous levels, Cian will have to join forces with Mael to determine the cause. Complications arise when Cian realizes he's falling in love with Mael - a union between a vampire and an angel should never be. Should it? And what lengths will Cian go to protect Mael when a plot to assassinate them both disrupts their investigation and they learn the rogues lead back to the highest levels of power?
This novel is well-written and fast paced, with excellent dialog and a rich plot. Cian and Mael are completely three-dimensional with flaws, virtues, and all the range of emotions of real people. Readers will fall for them even more quickly than they fall for each other. The supporting characters are also well done and given enough backstory to make their parts come alive. Though the ending has closure, there are questions left unanswered, and unrequited love that needs requiting, that beg for a sequel - which a little bird told me will happen. Buy it now. Buy a copy for a friend.
Summary of The Prince's Angel
In present day London, vampires live side-by-side with mortals living under two sets of laws. The Romanorum make the vampire rules, helping the Princes who rule the cities. Not all vampires are thrilled with the system. A rash of rogue vampires--vampires who have killed mortals--has descended upon London, and it is up to London's vampire prince, Mael Black, to bring them under control. When he learns who is truly behind the rogues, however, Mael's task becomes more complicated than he would like. His only choice is to turn to a sorcerer of questionable reputation--Cian Carmichael. But Cian is more than he seems to be, and despite the dangers inherent in becoming involved with him, Mael finds he is unable to resist. Cian is an angel, sent to bring the rogue vampires under control. Acquiring a reputation as a vampire hunter, Cian becomes notorious in the city Mael rules. The last thing he expects is to fall in love with the prince of the London vampires himself. Can these two deal with their growing attachment, and save London from the threat it faces?Gay Books
