For someone who isn't a huge fan of Paranormal, I really liked this story, especially Reyes Vega...Oh Baby!!
Whitelighter grabbed my attention from page one and didn't let go until the very last page, which I wished had gone on further.
I hope that Angie decides to make this into a series, I would really love to read more about Lily, Reyes and the whole cast of characters.
And Angie...I NEED a Brenda Story...I have so many questions about where she has been and where she is going...Maybe something to think about!!

Perfect adventure-packed novella to pass the time. Packed with quick chemistry, and sensuality that carries a blush-guarantee. Fans of True Blood will like Whitelighter, and probably love that this heroine actually kicks some butt!

My opinion:
I can’t resist Angie/ Angelia ‘s writing style…so far no matter the genre I get immersed in her story and I can’t only regret it’s too short. This time we get vampires and witches….very original witches in fact they are called Whitelighter because their power is radiating from them and all paranormal creatures can see it especially vampires who want to steal that power, which can be done only by killing the recipient of said power.
Lily is one of those special witches and since she discovered that and was attacked, her parents killed, she is on the run with her little sister, Sophie. However, since the situation is dangerous she never met another like her and never learned how to tame or control her powers. She learned to defend herself at least from Brenda, a vampire protector, who is helping them, fighting for them but about who we don’t know a lot. Sophie is a strange 4years old, she is really calm and we don’t know what her powers are exactly only that she is different than Lily. Writing about a little child isn’t the simplest thing to do and while I do think Sophie a little too mature it can work with her powers so the author really managed well.
Her relation with Reyes is sweet, both of them have been hurt and both of them feel guilty but it’s the protection of someone else that keeps them moving and going forward. Lily wants to protect Sophie, Reyes wants to protect them both. He can only see auras and think of himself as useless but the way his minds works is the best thing that could happen to Lily to ask her the questions she needed to think on. Sophie likes him too because he is treating her like a normal child and it was a long time since Lily could do as much. And let just says that something instinct as what keeps you alive^^
Now, I do have some question about Brenda,, in the second part of the book we learn from Lily how they met yes but I’m curious about Brenda’s point of view. Was she there by luck or was she sent to protect Lily? How the vampires against the destruction of whitelighters are working, are they trying to change mentality from inside the vampire community too? Why Reyes is different? Is it because only females can be whitelighters? Is his mother responsible somehow? (you will see after reading you can imagine the worst from her). How lily is being tracked? Etc.
However don’t worry: it’s a lot of questions but only because you do want more, while immersed in the story you put them aside quickly as Angie manage to keep the action at a rapid level and the suspense well maintained. Also you got some steamy scenes, it could feel rushed since it’s a novella but the special connection between Lily and Reyes made it feel natural too me so I wasn’t shocked or anything.
It’s a good paranormal romance if you want something short and different. To recommend
Score: 3,5/5

Whitelighter, by Angie Derek was a quick read, and I loved every page of it. The main character, Lily, was enjoyable. Not too girlie, and the save me type, and not too ultra tough. She was real because of it. The ideas within were new and fun. It wasn't the same story of vampires vs. humans. There were gifts and powers that were interesting to learn and think about. The romance wasn't in your face, page after page love and sex. Although the love happened a bit fast for the real world, it was mixed in well and made sense within the story. I really liked this book.
