Book Review: The Good Side Of Sin by K.S. Haigwood

Good Side of Sin (Save My Soul #3)
By: K.S. Haigwood

Josselyn has just spent the last three months in intense Line of Defense training so she could join Malcolm’s search party. Little did she know the archangels had no intention of letting her bring back into Heaven an angel who had opened a portal between Heaven and Hell, at least not before saving God's creations from the tight grasp of Lucifer first.

Three months have passed since the angel Rhyan released nine repented demons from Hell, and now innocent people are dying, but their souls are not going to Heaven. Josselyn's mission is to find the demon responsible for stealing the souls and bring it to justice before Lucifer gains enough power to rise and claim Heaven and earth as his own.

Her whole world is shaken when she discovers what tool Lucifer is using to track down the one key to the release of his eternal damnation. Thoros is one half-souled immortal she prayed she would never see again. The ex-Prince of Lust had stolen her heart and crushed it with a cheeky smile. Now, not only is she being forced to put her damaged ego aside and face the only man that has ever hurt her, but she has to work with him in order to complete her assignment.

Is she strong enough to keep from falling in love with him again? Or is their love the only thing that can keep Lucifer from getting the one thing he wants most.

After having been released from hell with a little help from an unlikely source; Thoros now lives on Earth. He has a couple of problems though, for one his soulmate is a guardian angel and lives in heaven. His other problem is  he keeps finding dead bodies and he's not sure if he's the one killing them or not. But there are good things too, he's no longer a demon and he's immortal.

Josselyn had been a guardian angel and just passed the academy to join the Line of Defense in the hopes of finding Malcolm, an angel who had gone missing. Her soulmate, Thoros is now on earth but she wants nothing to do with him since she thinks he betrayed her when they were in hell.

This is the third book in the "Save My Soul" series and it's just as good as the first two. Thoros thinks he's killing humans and Josselyn is sent from heaven to investigate if he's killing people and why he can't remember doing it. But even more mysterious is the fact that the dead bodies are missing their souls and they aren't in heaven, they have just disappeared.

The love scenes between Josselyn and Thoros were hot, sexy and sweet. He was the demon of lust while in hell so he really knows what he's doing and he does it well.

There's an adventure to save Malcolm and where they have to go isn't a place I've ever read about in a romance book before, but after getting a tour of heaven and hell this is the next obvious choice of settings. The twists that are thrown in their way and the things that we find out about some of the characters in this 3rd book really took me by surprise. I love the way this author throws in little surprises along the way to keep you wanting to read more.

Once again this author brought this reviewer to tears more than once while reading this book. I actually had to step away from the story for a few minutes at one point because the words were too blurry for me to continue. This book takes you on a journey that pulls you in and takes you for an emotional ride. But I read this book all in one sitting because I couldn't stop until I knew for sure that things worked out the way they're supposed to and I can only hope that the characters that didn't get their HEA come back in subsequent books to get a little happiness.

Ever find it hard to talk about yourself? Yeah, I have that problem too. I have been married to my soulmate for almost 8 years, who wouldn't pick up a book unless promised that it was filled with pictures. I have a beautiful 6 year old daughter, Riley, that talks too much and has a very vivid imagination. I have no clue where she got those traits. My step-son, Hayden, is 15 and very into football and hunting. I am a writer of paranormal suspense romance. If you enjoy a great love story with a massive amount of drama about angels, demons, ghosts, vampires, witches and fairy tale creatures brought to life through a twisted mind, then you might just enjoy reading my work.

Book Review: Hell's Gift (Save My Soul #2) by K.S. Haigwood

Hell's Gift (Save My Soul #2)
by K.S. Haigwood

Depression consumes the guardian angel, Rhyan, after his human charge chooses her soulmate over him. Filled with anger and despair, he lashes out. And when his hate-filled words land him neck-deep in Hell, he realizes he's gone too far. He expects trouble, but not to discover his own soulmate in the fiery depths. Abigail is there with good reason, but she's done her time, and in order to save them both, Rhyan must strike a deal with the Devil. The stakes are higher than ever before, with his soul, his friends and even the fate of Heaven and Earth in jeopardy. If he fails, Rhyan stands to lose more than he ever feared. Will true love be denied? It will take everything he's got to break down the traps Lucifer puts in his way. New lines are drawn and old scores are settled, and Rhyan is in for the fight of his life. With Abigail as the prize, and humanity in the balance, he will stop at nothing to claim...Hell's Gift
Guardian Angel, Rhyan is devastated that his charge choose her soulmate over him and has lapsed into a serious depression that sends him to hell...literally. The only good thing about this is that he finds his own soulmate, Abigail.

Abigail has been in hell...literally, for three centuries and when she remembers her past she wants out. Only one problem..Rhyan has to strike a deal with the devil in order to free himself and Abigail.

Book two starts right where the first one, "Save My Soul" left off. Rhyan is devastated that he's lost the woman he loves and lashes out at those around him only to find himself in a place I never would imagine him being...Hell.

I found the world that this author has created to be very imaginative and the characters are so well thought out. You would think with so many secondary characters they would get lost in the pages, but they are so memorable and so well fleshed out that you can't help but to remember who each one is. They say it's all in the details and they are right.

There were many twists I would never saw coming, but they made the story so compelling. Plus, if you've read the first book you'll see a few familiar people in this book who will surprise you as to how they are fairing in their new lives. One character, Murry is just as evil as ever and I hated this guy so much.

Rhyan makes a deal with the devil to either save both his and Abigail's soul or lose them both to Lucifer if he fails the challenge Lucifer has given him. He will have to battle the seven deadly sins in order to save them both but in the process he finds himself saving others as well.

But be forewarned, this is a tear jerker story. I don't cry easily but the tears were free flowing by the end of the book. Were they tears of happiness? Maybe... You'll just have to read the book to find out.

Book Review: Save My Soul by K.S. Haigwood

Save My Soul (Save My Soul #1)

by K.S. Haigwood
Kendra Larkin had everything going in the right direction. Her life was seemingly perfect, and she wouldn't have changed a thing about it. Unfortunately, the course of her life was about to be forever altered. A tragic rappelling accident lands her on Dr. Adam Chamberlain's operating table.

She agrees to a deal proposed by a guardian angel to help save the soul of the man who is both her doctor and soulmate. If she is successful, she gets to keep her life. However, she later learns that it isn't just her life that's in jeopardy, but her soul as well.

Even with the help of her handsome guardian angel, Rhyan, it seems there is no happy ending in sight. Torn between her newly discovered love of Rhyan, and the undeniable attraction she has for Adam, Kendra finds herself at a crossroad. With Adam's steadfast rejection of God, and his guardian demon conspiring against her, she fears her soul may already be lost.

Will she find a way to overcome the evil her life is suddenly burdened with? Or will Adam's guardian demon win both their souls and make Kendra his own personal puppet in Hell?

Kendra Larkin finds herself on an operating table about to die when she strikes a deal to save her soul but in order to do this she has to make her sexy doctor believe in god again. Not an easy task. She also has a sexy guardian angel that makes her decision a very hard one.

Dr. Adam Chamberlain has lost his faith and now has a guardian demon looking out for him. He's not sure why Kendra is so obsessed with having him get his faith in god back, but he finds himself attracted to her so being around her isn't a hardship.

This is definitely a different kind of paranormal romance. I don't usually read such Christian Lit. of any kind because I'm not a religious person, but by the blurb this seemed like it might only have a slight sprinkling of religion throughout the story and I was kind of right. As long as the story makes sense and is keeping me entertained, I'm a happy girl and this story did that in spades.

I did find it kind of interesting that while Kendra had a guardian angel helping her, Adam had a guardian demon leading him down the wrong path because he had lost his faith. But not only does Adam have a guardian demon and a guardian angel but everyone does and it depends on what you believe as to which one has more power to influence you. That's the first time I've read something like that and although I don't believe in neither angels nor demons, it was an interesting way to bring heaven and hell into a story.

There are many twists to this story that had me guessing what would happen next but finding out that something bad happened to Adam and that's why he stopped believing in god, was very cliché. It was obvious from the beginning that's where that story line was going and it's been done, over done in my opinion.

I liked the story, the characters and even the religious aspects of it. If you like angels, demons, good and evil, heaven and hell and a sweet romance then you'll like this book.

I give this book 4 sheep!
