Angels of Shadows #1
Snow Rises
Fearless. Soulless. Good. Evil. Angel. Demon. Warlock. Reaper.
I’ve met them all, but what am I?
My name’s Cassandra (Caz). At least that’s the name I’m going by this month. I’ve just aged out of the foster care system. I have no money. No memories. No future. No past. I was chased by an angel and a reaper who said I belong to them - they have my soul. I thought I was crazy until a demon and a warlock captured me and claimed I’m one of them. They say I don’t need a soul. I thought I was fearless. Didn’t know I was soulless. Now, I’m caught in the middle of an ancient war between good and evil, angels and demons, and both sides believe I was promised to them long ago. Am I even human? I don’t know who to trust. I don’t even know if I can trust myself. A Reverse Harem/Paranormal Romance.

This was my first reverse harem. I was intrigued. The story was very good. I enjoyed the book and will be reading the next one.

Fabulous wild wicked RH
This is an absolutely terrific RH. It’s very unique, the story, the “mysteries” to be solved, even the characters are very well developed and fleshed out. I love Cassandra aka Caz, and her 4 “men” are fabulous in an oh so naughty and evil way. Even the angel has his “dirty” side. I love how the story unfolds, and my only complaint...I have to wait for the sequel to deal with the “cliffy” at the end.

Has potential
I really liked the story line but felt it would have been amazing if done by a different author. Glosses over the steamy scenes. If it was better fleshed out over all- the struggle for memory and all that I would've loved it.

Wow! Loved This Witty, Fast Burn PNR RH Story!
As an avid reader, at least a book a day in the RH/PNR genres for years now, I didn’t expect much from this when I started it, but I was happily mistaken! Definitely worth a read and can’t wait to explore more from this author when I finish this review.
Caz is a complicated and likable character. Two of her men are complicated and wicked while the other two seem complicated and sweet. There’s more layers to all of them and while it doesn’t end on a cliffhanger you want to stay with the characters to reveal more of their layers and story. I can’t wait to read what happens next!

This girl has no memories before aging out of the foster care system. Now two sets of guys are following her around saying they know her.
I made it to 17% of this book. So she has no memories, the guys seem slightly familiar but she can't be sure...but she doesn't even flinch when two of them stick their hands down her pants...not one slight hesitation!! No weird feelings even after she was attacked by a demon, then and angel and none of the guys will tell her absolutely anything. I think these characters are supposed to have a connection but I don't have any sense of that so reading this scene was just super uncomfortable and quite enough for me.

Overall the book was alright. It definitely had me wanting to know more but I think that the back and forth between the two 'teams' was too much. I wanted to know more about the main character and i understand it was just the first book but I didn't get to know her enough before chaos ensued. Of that fact, it did not leave me needing to get the second book ASAP. The intimacy between characters was definitely intriguing and sensual but a little more was needed other than that to get me completely hooked.

Yeah, lacking...
I actually liked the concept of the story, but the execution is disjointed and confusing. I won't be continuing.
If it were rewritten... it'd be a pretty darn good story. As it stands, there is just so much lacking in the storytelling and writing. I can understand that we're as clueless as Caz, but there's nothing solid to hold onto. Then, steamy times are horrible, and that could have at least given the book a half star more if there was at least that to look forward to. Sigh.

I really wanted to like this, but I just couldn't finish it. The writing was good. It is the content I have issues with. I think the book definitely needed a trigger warning. Some of the characters felt too pushy and twisted. There were some scenes that did not sit well with me. I hate leaving bad reviews, but there were too many things that made me uncomfortable or put me off. I would definitely classify this as a dark book and if you have any triggers I would be careful about reading this.

I have had this series on my TBR list for a very long time and finally made time to read the first two books.
Another paranormal reverse harem, fast paced, and a total romp fest! Not that I’m complaining but I was expecting a story and I got erotica.
I couldn’t give them more than a three star rating because the bickering really got on my nerves, the storyline lacked excitement and as I mentioned it was a real romp fest.
At the end of book 2 we are given a reason behind all the mess, and I can understand but for me I think the damage was already done and if I’m being honest if I don’t read the next book in the series it’s not going to cause too much stress for me.

So this was heavy on my explicit but also full of humor and sarcasm! It was fun to watch them bait and snipe. Interest to see what she chose.
