A short story told from Nyx's (The First Angel's) POV.
From Once Upon a Happy Ending
Every night in Nyx’s dreams, she travels to a beautiful, hellish realm where she is forced to fight for her life against vampires, witches, and other supernaturals. She soon realizes some nightmares are real—and that there is nothing more dangerous than her forgotten past.
Ella Summers has been writing stories for as long as she could read; she's been coming up with tall tales even longer than that. One of her early year masterpieces was a story about a pigtailed princess and her dragon sidekick. Nowadays, she still writes fantasy. She likes books with layered plots, lots of action and adventure, and a touch of romance. When she is not busy writing or spending time with her two young children, she makes the world safe by fighting robots.
Originally from the U.S., Ella currently resides in Switzerland. She is the author of Sorcery and Science, a fantasy adventure series set in a world splintered by magic and technology.
A sweet little novella that adds a little more clarity on Leon and what he was in Nyx's life and why he moved over to the dark angels however doesn't bring a lot to the overall story.
If you don't get a chance to read, you haven't missed any gapping plot holes in the main Legion of angels series.
This book intrigued me because I didn't understand who Nyx was or what the relationship was with Leda.
Tremendous journey Nyx had to take to get her life back just because she fell in love with the wrong person. Neither Leon is such a saint nor Nyx such a villain. Ronan turned his back on her and she sought comfort in a friend, but he went to the opposite side and created the trap that led Nyx to lose two hundred years of her life. Ronan does not deserve forgiveness, however, Nyx sacrificed herself for him so she will end up forgiving him.
I see a great similarity between Nyx and Leda. They are both brave, warriors, sarcastic and would sacrifice themselves for those they love, plus they are in love with someone forbidden.
Every night in Nyx’s dreams, she travels to a beautiful, hellish realm where she is forced to fight for her life against vampires, witches, and other supernaturals. She soon realizes some nightmares are real—and that there is nothing more dangerous than her forgotten past.
Heather's Notes I liked this look into Nyx's and Roman's past.
‘Legion of Angels’ story. 0.5. Found in the authors newsletter. Short story about First Angel Nyx’s early life before she knew what she was and became an angel. She has no memory of where she came from and is having deadly nightmares that may be real.
