Book Review: Falling - The Soul Collectors Series




Synopsis

An earthquake is coming, soon. A small town in Kentucky is set to be destroyed. Bayla, Heaven's Soul Collector, has been given two tasks; make sure the earthquake happens according to plan, and also make certain Gray Ellison, a teenaged human, survives. Bayla has a perfect record for completing missions; so, when another angel is added into the mix, she begins to question the Head Council's faith in her. Just as she is getting used to working with Hadraniel, her unasked for back-up, she has to face another hurdle. When Declan shows up with the mission to make sure Gray doesn't survive the earthquake, he starts to challenge all of Bayla's beliefs and plans. Declan isn't your typical demon. He's gorgeous and arrogant, but there's something about him that Bayla can't quite put her finger on. Declan's presence threatens the mission to save Gray, and Bayla herself. Will she be able to complete her assigned mission successfully despite these new obstacles, or will Gray be lost to Hell forever?

My Review


This is Falling by Tara Benham. This is a 230 page book of Greatness!

Bayla is the most skilled Soul Collector, aside from the demon Meph, in the world. When Elder Michael himself shows up to give one of the most important and dangerous missions Bayla will ever complete, she has to have backup. Han, a Blue-in-training, is assigned to help her along with a demon, Declan, that she is supposed to save. Her mission is to protect Gray, who is somehow important to future events, and keep him away from an earthquake that will kill everyone in the town. Bayla has always been distant when doing missions because of all of the death, but somehow this is different. She is starting to realize that being human isn't so bad. Her and her team need to come up with a game plan before this strange earthquake hits. Why is Gray important? How does Declan fit in? Will they win this battle between angels and demons?

This was a GREAT book full of beautiful landscapes and amazing characters!! I felt like I was part of the book and I loved Declan. His character was so confusing, but he had a GREAT personality. This book was full of many twists and new conflicts that left my head spinning(In a good way). This is a book for most ages. Great job, Tara Benham!!

Book Review: Light of Dawn - The Dawn Trilogy Series




Synopsis

When Dawn’s soul mate, Angelo, leaves town with another girl, he steals all hope of mending their relationship. However, this allows the bond with her guardian angel, Gabe, to grow. But their love can’t save them from what is to come. 
When their greatest fear becomes a terrifying reality, their limits will be pushed and tested. Dawn’s strange abilities are finally revealed, and she begins to realize her full potential. Now she must decide if she will run or fight.

My Review
This is the third book of the Dawn Trilogy written by Komali da Silva. This book is 247 pages long.

Dawn's mom died and she basically lost both her parents. To make it less confusing.... Angels do exist and Dawn's dad was her mom's Guardian Angel! When Dawn's mom died, so did he, per say. Dawn is half angel, half human, the first of her kind... Stuck in both worlds in a war that revolves around her. Gabe, her Guardian Angel, has protected her and taken care of her after Angelo, her ex guardian and ex boyfriend, got burned and lost his charge. War is raging and demons are taking over the city and possessing the citizens.The angel elders can't do anything without proof that the prophecy is true about Dawn being the High Priestess. Her powers are getting stronger and the cards have been played... She will be the light that will save, her being the High Priestess, but there will be death, one of them someone close to her that she loves dearly. Will Dawn run or fight? Who can she trust? Which of her loved ones will live or die?

This was an epic battle of love, lust, and tears! I cried at the very end, but it was still a great book. The battle was epic and Dawn's powers were kick-butt! The only problem that I had was the F-Bomb being dropped a few times. Three times I think.... It wasn't as much as most the books I've read so that's good. I wish there was another book to this series..
