Angel of Darkness Fallen Cynthia Eden Books

I liked the idea behind Eden's Fallen series - with several former 'angels of death' at the center - and of the romance between the fallen angel, Keenan, and Nicole, the woman who caused him to fall. But at a little over the halfway point Angel of Darkness (The Fallen ) still hadn't grabbed me. I normally like Cynthia Eden's books but when all was said and done I ended up just little underwhelmed and I am not exactly sure why.

It might have been that I just never connected with the characters. I am extremely hero-centric and there was some real potential for some extreme steaminess in the set up, since Keenan is having to deal with feelings for the first time in his long existence. But the power that could have been in his awaking to emotion wasn't capitalized on at all. Instead the fact that Keenan was incredibly uncommunicative and angry and that Nicole's focus kept on slipping back to her issues about the side effects of being a vamp got in the way of establishing a real romance connection between them. As a consequence, I ended up far more intrigued by the secondary 'bad' fallen angel Sam - and his machinations - than I was with the leading pair.

As a result Angel of Darkness ended up being more on the okay in the romance department and on the side of pretty good for the overall story but even though I wasn't wowed by this series starter, first books are often tough and my interest in Sam - and Eden's past successes - was enough to sell me on the next book.

Angel of Darkness Fallen Cynthia Eden Books Reviews

Excellent read. Cynthia has created another wonderful fast paced action filled paranormal read.
I love how her angels are not such goodie goodies as we normally see them. There is struggle going on within all three angels we meet. Each seems to have his own "demon" to overcome.
We meet Nicole as she is leaving the cathedral that was locked so she couldn't enter. As she is walking down the alley a vampire attacks her and Keenan (a death angel) watches the attack unfold. Nicole fights hard for her life making Keenan admire her strength. He struggles with what he has to do in taking her soul.
When the vampire attempts to rape her Keenan steps in and breaks the rules. He even kills the vampire. He is taken away by Azreal the Angel of Death and informed that he has failed in his temptation sends him on his fall. Keenan takes 6 months to get control after the fall and searches for Nicole. He doesn't know that she ingested the vampires blood and has now become one herself. He soon learns this but still protects Nicole.
The story is so fast paced. I loved all the action and how the two of them come to grips with one another and the forces coming after them.
This is set to be another great series.
As Keenan waits in the alley for Nicole St. James to come, he knows that she will die and he will be the one that brings her death. Keenan is an Angel of Death and his job is when Nicole is just at the point of death to touch her, killing her and freeing her soul. As he waits and watches she is attacked by a vampire. He is surprised by how hard she fights back including slashing the vampires throat with some glass she found in the alley. He listens to her cries for help but he has his orders, she dies. When the moment comes he is unable to do it but instead touch's the vampire, killing him. For disobeying his orders he is brought before Azrael, THE Angel of Death and is cast out falling and having his wings burned off. When he finds Nicole again, she is now a vampire from the blood of the vampire that attacked her mixing in through an open wound. The story goes on the tell the adventures of Keenan and Nicole as he try to keep her alive from all the people that wants to see her dead including Azrael.

This book was hard to rate because I didn't know if I should give it 2 stars for failing to flesh out the characters allowing the reader to find out more about them and 4 stars for writing an good read so I settled on 3 stars. So is this a great book, no but it is an enjoyable read that could have been great.
Nicole St James is about to have her life turned upside down and all she is trying to do is go to a church to pray. This meek school teacher is brutally attacked by a vampire while some unknown being watches and doesn't help. Crying, screaming, and begging get her nowhere. Nicole fights a creature she had no clue even existed to no avail. She may not die permanently in that dark lonely alley, but the changes in her life are definitely unwanted. She becomes the monster that changed her life forever, a vampire.

Keenan an Angel of Death has a strict set of rules to live by. Take the life of the next person on the list. His touch is death. As an angel he has never experienced emotions, never known the touch of a lover, and he has never gone against the orders of his peers. Until Nicole, now he wants to help this woman he was sent to take. He wants to change fate for her. He wants things that he does not understand. Keenan went against his orders. He keeps Nicole from dying in that alley.

Keenan falls for Nicole, in more ways than one. Keenan's fall leaves him without the abilities that he had as an angel. The fall also leaves him with emotions, something he has never experienced before. His emotions leave him wanting to find Nicole, immediately. He has to make sure she is alive, after all that is why he was punished. Nicole is struggling with her new life. She has this unnatural thirst and people are hunting her for mistakes that she made as an untrained newbie vamp.

Nicole and Keenan never get any breaks. As soon as they evade one hunter another finds them. Keenan is trying to help Nicole. It seems like every faction of Other is after her. Some of the Other soon figure out that there is an even better reason to hunt Nicole. They had just been hoping to put a vamp to death. The potential to gain power is an even bigger reward so the pursuers up the ante and chase them with ever more vigor than ever before.

Eden has included a couple of my favorite type of characters. The hero that when first introduced seems like he may just be a
bad seed. As the story carries on I started to wonder if perhaps they just had their own agenda. I just love the guys that you have to question their motives and weather they are in fact playing for team evil or are they really fighting for team good. I'm eager to see where the next books in the series take these two.
