About this ebook

From the #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Black Dagger Brotherhood series comes the first Novel of the Fallen Angels.

Redemption isn’t a word Jim Heron knows much about—his specialty is revenge, and to him, sin is all relative. But everything changes when he becomes a fallen angel and is charged with saving the souls of seven people from the seven deadly sins. And failure is not an option.

Vin diPietro surrendered himself to his business—until fate intervenes in the form of a tough-talking, Harley-riding, self-professed savior, and a woman who makes him question his destiny. With an ancient evil ready to claim him, Vin has to work with a fallen angel not only to win his beloved over…but redeem his very soul.

Covet by J.R. Ward 💭 Genres: Adult, Paranormal, Romance, Suspense 💭 5 Stars 💭 This is going to be a very short review. 💭 I read this book back in April of 2015. I went into it with no expectations. I had just discovered J.R. Ward's BDB about 6 months previously and I was waiting to get my greedy hands on the next in the series when I ran into this book. I had loved everything I had read so far of hers & this looked different and intriguing. So I grabbed it. Then I gobbled it up! Totally different than the BDB series. 💭 This one is Fallen Angels & Demons. Good vs Evil. Redemption of the soul. And Love conquers all. (When you work for it) 💭 While you true Main character is Jim Heron, he is not the love interest. Nor his two fallen angel sidekicks sent to help him. So I guess you can say this story has 4 mc's. Jim, who is sent on a mission to help save a soul or two & the souls in question, Vin diPietro & Marie Therese. Then the demon, Devina makes the 4th mc. With all those characters you could get either a convoluted mess or a great story. This was a great story! 💭 It got me intrigued with Jim's character from the start. Then it hooked me and kept me in raptured to the very end. I loved it so much I went looking to grab every book in the series. 💭 bookshelves: adult, paranormal, suspense, romance, authors-favorites, authors-i-follow, 0-n-order-by-athr

Jumps around a lot hard to get focused on the story until closer to the end. Still it was a good read.
