Dark Angel
⭐️⭐️⭐️
When Gillian almost drowns, she is saved by her guardian angel. Angel introduces her to a world she never imagined existed, with promises to fulfil her every want and desire. But when Angel begins making strange and sinister requests, Gillian must question his true identity and motives.
To be honest, I don’t have too much of an opinion on this story. It’s okay, and I like the idea of a guardian angel who may not be quite so angelic. But I tend to find Gillian rather annoying, and her story of unpopular girl in love with popular guy with popular girlfriend is VERY overdone.
The Chosen
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
After witnessing her mother’s brutal murder at the hands of a vampire, Rashel has dedicated her life to ridding the world of the monsters, but when she finds herself swept into the Night World slave trade, she meets Quinn, a vampire that she can’t bring herself to kill.
This is definitely high up on my Night World favourites. I love a good enemies to lovers, and Rashel is very different to the other Night World lead characters in the sense that she’s extremely independent and the furthest thing from a damsel that you can get.
Soulmate
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
When Hannah begins receiving notes warning her that she is in danger, it’s safe to say that Hannah is freaked out. And what makes it worse is the fact that they appear to be written in her own handwriting… In the midst of trying to decipher these notes, she ends up thrown into the Night World.
I really enjoyed Night World story, the reincarnation aspect gave it a unique factor in comparison to the previous books. Hannah and Thierry are definitely not my favourite couple or characters, but they are definitely not my least favourite. I think this story also had one of the better villains in the whole series.
