So much action! We go on a wild ride with all of Ariella's supernatural friends pulling together to find Levi. And to get her magic back and under her control. There's drama, danger, twists, and turns we don't see coming. But we also see bonds form and friendships blossom. Including the bond between Levi and Ariella, which is stronger than anything she's ever had and is what pulls her to work to get Levi back. Their bond is strong, and it will get them through this. That cliffhanger, though?

​(I was provided a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review)

Ariella, with her wings and magic retrieved, has just sent Levi, a Demon' and her love interest, and his Mother Ylena, "Levi's Mother and Ariella's Angel Mentor, to the Fiery depths of hell as Levi requested, because she was tricking Ariella into giving her the Dagger she had hidden."

Now Ariella has to find a way to hell, and with Friends, save Levi from himself, and his Mother. Her regained Magic is Dark, and fighting her, making its use almost impossible as she tries to control it. Her journey with her Friends, and the King and Queen of Hell is an exciting tale that I read in three nights of marathon sessions.

At the unexpected ending, Juliana leaves us with a hint of what might happen to Ariella, in her next book in this series, ​and it will be an anxious but exciting wait, following this brilliant addition to the Rite World.

I can't say enough how much I love this world and I would never get tired of reading it.
Ariella is on a quest to get Levi back while figuring out her own feelings and when they are reunited, it's not how anyone imagined it.
Ariella reuniting with all of our favorite characters and realizing she has a lot of people who support her and believe her, as well as a lot of people upset by her disappearing act.
We learn more about the Underworld and I love the interaction between Tanner and Jasmine. And what we discover there, I never saw coming and now I just want to know how they're going to deal with it.
That ending gives no clue as to what happened and now I just want the next book to come.

In the third book of this series, Ariella is on a quest to get Levi back from the fiery pits of hell - having difficulties to even figure out where to start. The Underworld is a mysterious and unexplored place, the angels are still on the hunt for Ariella and the Scarlett Hex dagger, and with the realization dawning on Ariella that the bond might be real and she has to face her own feelings... sometimes it can be a little much for one angel.
I loved seeing the other characters from the Rite world books coming together, united in their fight against evil. I very much enjoy seeing the internal conflict in Ariella develop when it comes to Levi, until she fully embraces her own feelings and emotions. There is a lot of tension and action in the book, especially towards the end, and with the current development and setbacks I am ready for the next book.

SHITTTTTT WENTTTTTT DOWNNNNNNN

and I mean downnnn downnn ;)

Female lead finalllllly figuring out some things (thank god- still want to hit her in the face with an unseasoned skillet) love plots twist and guys let me tell you
The slowwww burn is Burnnnnnningggggggg and just mmmmm yesss but also I too want to go train and be a badass like the characters in this….

Read with caution highly addictive: risk of desiring to become ultimate bad ass fighting machine with zeroooo realistic expectations is high….

10/10/10- continue reading despite demise of sanity and realistic standards of SO

(Zero books have been harmed in the writing of this review nor during reading- - only because the book is pretty)

This was incredible from start to finish. A gripping and thrilling ride that you on the edge of your seat the whole read! Our mc’s are separated and have their work cutout for them in this third book, many obstacles to overcome and challenges to face, but face them they will, with the help of some old friends and some new in this action packed and adventure filled read. Drama, danger, twists and turns to shock you and an ending that has you hooked and so ready for the next book, this was unput downable!

[nat _lovestoread · Rating 5 out of 5]

What a wild ride! 🤯
I enjoyed every minute of this amazing installment, that had me hooked in the adventures Ariella and her friends (some old, some new) had to go through. 😱🙈
Action-packed, this fantastic book is a total wild ride, full of twists and turns and a shocking cliffhanger! 💔😭
I loved to read about past characters and how all came together to help Ariella. 🤗🥰
Now, I'm dying for the next book, I need to know everything will be fine! 🙌🏻❤️

[McKenna Luzynski · Rating 5 out of 5]

Fallen Demon was an adventure from start to finish, without feeling like a series of challenges or quests. Even though this was the third installment of the Rite World: Fallen Angel series, this book brought a new dimension to the series, and in particular, to Ariella, as she grapples with feelings of connectedness. As we have come to expect with this series, the ending left me counting down the days until the next release!

[Shayay · Rating 4 out of 5]

Another interesting read in this series; a bit on the annoying side of things with the issues with Levi, but still an entertaining read. Ariella finds herself going through so much to help Levi; danger and excitement to be had! Another cliffy here, so prepare yourself. Looking forward to reading more adventures with these characters!

[Brandy Rice · Rating 5 out of 5]

Get ready for a wild ride as Ariella is ready to risk it all to save Levi. This book was addicting with captivating action from start to finish. i absolutely loved this story as Ariella friends all came together to help her in her time of need. Levi and Ariella are amazing, I absolutely love them together. The ending is shocking and I can't wait to see what will happen next!!

Read Full Review at: What's Beyond Forks?

Fallen Demon is the third book in the Rite World: Fallen Angel series by Juliana Haygert. Ariella goes through a lot in this one. She's forced to trust. There are unexpected plan changes. She's kept on her toes. She goes through some great realizations and character growth as well. As a reader, it took me until about halfway through to really feel invested. I really felt like something was missing with Levi MIA, but I'm weird like that. And, once he was back in the picture, no matter the form, all was well. The characters and worlds this author creates are really well thought out, and pull you right into their lives. I'm anxious for what's next, because you just never know what will happen.

The ARC of Fallen Demon by Juliana Haygert was kindly provided to me by the author for review. The opinions are my own.

Ariella's adventure continues and I am along for the ride! She gets a little help from her friends just when she thinks shes all alone and it was fantastic to see some of my fav characters make a cameo. Levi isn't with her but is also here and adventuring. The rite world is always a great escape and I am always in for more!

[Michelle Miller · Rating 4 out of 5]

The third book in this series had me back and waiting for it. I loved Levi and was waiting to see what happened to him from book two. Ugh, the waiting was hard but worth it. We get to see old characters from previous books a lot in this book as they try and help her locate Levi, In book two I was not happy with Ariella but she redeemed herself to me in this book and I was very happy. It goes to show how well the story is when you don’t like a MC as much. The book ended on a cliffy and I thought the series was over but I’m interested to find out what happens next.

[Starr Wilde · Rating 5 out of 5]

Awesome follow up...we went through a lot to get to Levi and Ariella has called on her friends (reluctantly, natch) and boy, literally put them through hell...but yikes...another cliffhanger ending....cannot wait for next one...

[Belinda Clemons · Rating 5 out of 5]

OMFG this was so wild Arielle was going through alot in this while trying to find out how to get Levi back from the Hellish Realm that he got sucked into. So many twists drama heartthumping scenes had me hanging on the edge of my couch.

[VoraciousBookDragoness · Rating 5 out of 5]

Unputdownable! Great world building, captivating characters & engaging plot. The action kept me on edge & the romance touched my heart.

I can’t wait for the next book!

Thanks for the ARC!

[Sherryle · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is an amazing story. I have thoroughly enjoyed each & every page once again. This story took my breath away... I adorable the love, devotion, action & the great storyline behind this series. Levi & Ariella's relationship has had its ups n downs & finally even it ends in love. I cannot wait to read more for this series & learn more about it. Thanks Juliana for your passion & great writings.

Book #3 of the Rite World Fallen Angel and it was so good. Pnr, fantasy, steamy, beautiful and a must read.

[Rachel Joi Maples · Rating 5 out of 5]

omg, what an amazing continuation!!

[Amanda Evernden · Rating 5 out of 5]

Another intense and gripping read following Ariella and friends trying to rescue our favourite demon, Levi. Going to the underworld might not seem much but it's a whole new level of mind games that they must fight through to find where Levi went. Filled with fights and a cliffhanger ending soo big you won't want to miss out on reading what happens next. Can they find him before it's too late or will they all go crazy trying........

[Denise Doughten · Rating 5 out of 5]

Amazing book.

I love this world of supernaturals Ms. Hay get has built. The characters are amazing and you care about them like family. Can not wait for the next book.

[Geff Ratcheson · Rating 4 out of 5]

I hate getting old! I read book 2 in May of this year, & I had no memory of the plot or backstory.

I see that I gave books 1 & 2 5 stars each; so they must have been great!

It took me about 1/4 of the book to assimilate the backstory, but that shouldn't be an issue for most people.

Ms Haygert is one of my favorite indie authors. Once I figured out what was happening, the characters had a story to tell, especially our main couple. Somehow (I don't remember, I'm sure we were told in book 2) Levi, our main male character, had turned from a good natured demon to pure evil. His magical girlfriend, Ariana spent much of the book trying to change him back. Oddly (though I admit with some of my biases I sort of liked it), the Christian Angels are the true evil in this book; not the Demons.

And finally (avoiding spoilers), we are left with a MAJOR cliff hanger.

Good stuff; I'd recommend reading the first 3 books back to back.

I received an advanced reader's copy at no charge & am leaving an honest review.

[Thalitha Lambregts vd Oest · Rating 4 out of 5]

After the end of book 2, the story takes an unexpected turn in this book. As Ariella finds out that Levi has disappeared in their battle against Ylena.
In her quest to find him, she has to overcome obstacles and let people in. With that, this felt like the book in the series where Arielle had the most character development so far. Since our MC'S are separated for most of the book, the spice takes the backburner in this book. We meet a lot of new characters as well and we end on a gloomy note.
I would like to thank Juliana for this ARC and look forward to read how this will end in book 4.
