Final rating: 5/5 stars Even the smallest light can grow until theres no darkness left. update: I did some editing of the review on 17/10/14.This series is captivating. It will bind you and won't let you go until you read them all. More world-building, plot twists, actions and sexual tension + another virgin hero. For me it was absolutely better than the first one. It made me laugh a lot, but as well cry because of certain character's decision in the end. Still, the story about Nicola andI liked the premise, as well as the message. Here is where I was so crestfallen: the love scenes. I didn't know if this was a showalter book written for ya, or for ADULTS! I read her books because I love her love scenes being HOT HOT HOT! This book was NOT NOT NOT! If I could say something to the author, I would say this, "you set these expectations of your readers, and you are the one who labels your books adult, when you write a book as being part of an adult series, but you write it for
Id never read any of Gena Showalters books before trying Beauty Awakened, but Id gotten the idea they were fun reads. Unfortunately, I did not have fun with Beauty Awakened in fact, it made me angry and I abandoned the book partway through.The setup is that Koldo, a physically and emotionally scarred dark-angel type, and Nicola, a self-sacrificing young woman with a heart condition and a dying twin sister, meet and eventually fall in love. But Showalter made Koldo so insufferable that I couldn
Awesome Read!Koldos story is the perfect tortured soul to get his happy ever after ending. Between the torturous past Koldo went through between the evil acts from his own mother Cornelia (a sent one) and father Nox (Nefas demon) it is no wonder he was lusting after revenge.I thought Nicola Lane was the perfect mate for Koldo because of the important lessons learned from both of their circumstances. Yes Nicola was sick as was her sister who eventually does die but the lesson of Nicola situation
4.5 stars Gena Showalter is back and with another hit. BEAUTY AWAKENED grabbed me from the very first pages when it tells the tale of a little boy starved for his mothers affection. A love that he never got. And the suffering that came after.Koldo is a tough warrior in Zacharels Army. But I think I would do better at introducing him by giving you some visual stimulation because this is pretty much what I thought of(minus the hair because Koldo is bald)If that doesnt get you jumping up and
Hmmm. This was better than Last Kiss Goodnight, but it still had some patchy spots with the plot and characterisations. There were no great highs, even though Koldo was a tortured hero (usually a no brainer for me). The heroine really was insipid. The religious overtones that were overwhelming in Last Kiss Goodnight were toned down a bit here; but were still present and noticeable, which leads me to believe this is the direction Gena Showalter is heading in with her writing. That is OK, if that
2.5/5 Blue DuckiesWHAT I LIKED:This is the second book of her Angels of the Dark series and, as with all of her books, it's standalone. The story was pretty interesting and I have to admit to being quite intrigued by Koldo after reading Wicked Nights. We get more of a look into the world of angels and I really liked the idea of an angel as wounded as Koldo by his horrible parents. I wanted to love this book, truly. Parts of it were really interesting, there was some great humor in areas and some
