Take one more, ferry her along. Soulbearer Moradiel recounts his duties while collecting his latest assignment, nurse Ariel. Tragic accident--seems simple. But in the RN's final moments asleep at the wheel of her speeding car, stirrings grip Moradiel's angelic heart. Stirrings so forbidden that to simply give voice to them is to risk expulsion from his Heavenly abode.
Out of time and faced with the most difficult decision in his eternal existence, Moradiel finds himself torn between saving the only woman he's ever loved or throwing the balance between Heaven and Hell into chaos. Duty or desire? Moradiel must choose . . .

Currently, he resides in the Pacific Northwest and feels no pressing need to be elsewhere.

Writing as Jericho S. Wayne, he is the author of the dark urban fantasy series The Soulforger Chronicles. J.S. enjoys hearing from his readers and fans. He can be reached through his website at https://jswaynereloaded.com or on Twitter @iamlordunicron.
J.S. Wayne has a very fluid writing style. This book is a great, super-fast read that gets your feet (or wings) wet in this series! He does an excellent character build in such a short story. This book gets you hooked from the start and ready to move on to books #2 and #3! I highly recommend you get all three books at once, as you'll be smacking yourself on the forehead when you have to go on-line to get the others at 3 a.m.!
I've read many books about angels falling in love with mortals, but this is the first one I've read with the angel of death, which puts a unique spin on in. It was wonderfully romantic and spicy!
It's hard often times to find a quick read that's got all the bells and whistles: believable characters with believable emotions and motivation, a well-built world and, let's not forget, hot romance. Angels Would Fall accomplishes all of this and more! Wayne is a great writer who creates a lush, sensual world from word one. This is definitely an author to follow.
Great story! This is the opening to a long and wonderful storyline. J.S. introduces us to two strong characters who are found to be unable to resist each other, which makes them irresistible to the reader.
While a short story, ANGELS WOULD FALL is packed with emotion and vivid imagery. The plot poses an interesting premise with the "angel of death" captivated by one of his "victims" and details his struggle with whether he should risk it all to be with her. This erotic story is far more than sex, and the sex is written with heart. ANGELS WOULD FALL is a fast read, but a thoroughly enjoyable one.
