Wing of Doubt follows Evelyn, who arrives in Heaven expecting eternal peace and tranquility. That's not quite how things go, though. While she's deemed worthy enough to earn entry, she wasn't quite worthy of full paradise just yet. Instead, she's assigned to defend Heaven from demons and other threats. Stripped of any memories from her past life or even how she died, Evelyn finds herself enlisted and undergoing training to become one of the realm's defenders.
Along the way, she crosses paths with Sentinel General Kane, the commander, who repeatedly steps in to help her during her rare moments of need. A bond quickly forms between them, growing as Evelyn struggles to stay alive while piecing together parts of her forgotten identity. Tested far beyond her limits, Eve must make it through training before her enemies catch up to her first.
I enjoyed this book and am glad that there were also platonic friendships, not just romantic ones. This book will give you all the feels - laughs, heartbreak, anger, and some heat
I received an ARC of this book from the publisher, but all opinions are my own and this review is voluntary. Thank you to Booksirens and Aella C. Grey.
This story was fast-paced and entertaining, a real page-turner. I enjoyed the story between the characters and can appreciate that (while sad) an author feels the freedom to kill off some characters.
I liked that our first glimpse of the FMC began in the afterlife, I haven’t read many books like that.
The tension and friendship between the FMC and MMC was good although a bit random. There were a lot of interesting things that happened with little to no explanation for them. I kept hoping for some answers but didn’t get any.
The story ended very abruptly as well, it felt like just another chapter and there was no finality in it.
I’d be interested to read future installments however if they continue to leave more questions than answers, I’ll grow tired of the story.

This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Wings of Doubt had one of those premises that immediately hooked me: a woman dies and wakes up in Heaven, forced to fight as an after-life crusader. Unfortunately, the execution never came close to matching the concept.
The entire book feels like a bargain-bin version of The Fourth Wing without any character development or dragons. Most of the cast remains flat. Motivations are thin, relationships develop without depth, and our FMC never becomes compelling enough to carry the story through its weaker moments. For a book set in Heaven, there is remarkably little sense of wonder.
In the end, it felt like watching an author forge a cool idea and then spend 400 pages trying to turn it into The Fourth Wing with angel wings and giant cats. The concept deserved far more than it got.
