HALO (Fallen Angel Book 1) Kindle Edition

This is the first book in a trilogy co-written by the very talented duo of authors, revolving all around one sizzlingly hot couple... *fans herself* is it hot in here? ;) I adore both Brooke Blaine and Ella Frank individually, but when they team up, a pure magical story is created :) I loved their previous trilogy, PresLocke series :) if you read that one, and thought it was hot and awesome, you will immediately fall in love with this story ;) I mean... I thought I knew what I was getting myself into when I started it... yeah... it was even better than my already very high expectations :) but before I get into all the reasons why it's a gem that all of you need to read immediately, let me say a few more words about the plot of this novel :)This is a phenomenally written and totally addictive rock star romance... :) on the one hand we have Viper: lead guitarist and songwriter for the TBD, a rock group widely known and loved all around the world... he's snarky and sarcastic, always honest and totally have those alpha vibes that can make you week in the knees ;) the situation got complicated when Trent, their lead singer left them abruptly a few months ago... if that name sounds familiar, it's cause he's the hero of one of Brooke's novel (read "A little bit like desire" if you want to know more) and ever since then, they are looking for his replacement, which is not an easy thing... until Halo comes along :) where Viper is all devil-ish and seducing, Halo looks and sounds like an angel... a sexy angel, but angel nonetheless :) with his blond hair, blue eyes and seductive voice, he's exactly what TBD needs... and at this moment I would like to say that the cover to this gem is so spot on... *sighs dreamily* this is exactly how I picture Halo in my mind :) now I am both excited and scared to see the cover of the sequel, because it's titled "Viper" and what if I'm gonna be disappointed? I guess we shall see about that when it becomes available... ;) Halo is about ten years younger than the rest of the band members and just... so innocent :) let's just say that the nickname that Viper's calling him is perfect :) Angel... oh but how much fun will it be to corrupt him ;) Halo is straight...or that's what he always thought about himself... but things start to get interesting when Viper keeps flirting with him... and once you read this story you will know why he's totally irresistible :) ok, now that we have these few details out of the way let me jump into all the praises I have about this gem :)I loved this story so much that I'm not sure where to start with all the amazing things I have to say about it :) the writing style was just... *sighs dreamily* I have no adjectives good enough to describe how wonderful it was :) I was hooked from the very first page, and then just kept on reading until there were no more words left ;) I just couldn't put it down ;) it was sinfully hot and sizzlingly seductive... *fans herself* I swear, I thought I knew what I would get, after reading and loving PresLocke series co-written by this duo, but this one? man oh man, it was even hotter... ;) the sexual tension and chemistry was off the charts... ;) add to that sarcastic banter with lots of innuendos and you will be blushing a lot... ;) the main couple is fantastic... I feel like we only just scratched the surface when it comes to both of them, and I can't wait to read the next installments to know more about each of them... already in this novel we see glimpses into both Viper and Halo that may surprise you... in the best possible way of course :) I really liked the other members of the group as well, and I'm hoping we will see even more of them in the sequels :) especially Killian :) the book is written in 2 POVs, which means we have chapters written from Viper's perspective, as well as ones from Halo's point of view :) they are very distinctive and you can see the difference between the jaded and cynical Viper and wide-eyed and a bit naive Halo... ;) this duo of authors works perfectly well with each other, because their words flow effortlessly, and you couldn't tell that two different people wrote this story :) since this is the first book about Viper and Halo, there's no real resolution to stuff... there's also no cliffhanger... at least not the kind that will leave you wanting to throw your kindle through the window ;) but to say that I cannot wait to get my hands on the next installment would be an understatement :) fortunately for all of us, the sequel goes live next month, with the concluding novel being published in april, so the wait won't be that long :) I highly recommend you to pick this gem as soon as possible, because you all need these characters in your lives... ;) oh, and I almost forgot to tell you one of my favourite things in this story... lyrics to the songs... *sighs happily* let's just say that I wish someone would actually record them, cause I would loooooove to listen to them :) but for now reading them just have to be enough... ;)

I have to say, I didn't know what to expect, but damn this is hot. The situations that are presented and the way they are handled, kinda blew my mind.. Bring it on Fallen Angel.

To start off this review, I'd like to honestly tell you that I was never really drawn to same sex romance novels. I'm far from a homophobe, mind you, but growing up my romantic influences were based largely upon your typical cookie cutter, boy meets girl, run of the mill story lines, until one day, I found myself playing a game, that entirely switched the game up, and when I tell you all that I was playing a game? I mean that in the most literal sense of the word.See, a little over a year ago, as I was dealing with a bout of restlessness I decided to download a game called Chapters, which is basically an interactive story platform where you get to choose character responses which in turn effect the outcome of the story itself, and that was where I found this gem of a series.That's right, hidden amongst the LGBTQ category was "Halo". Another Chapters story book, that when I started reading it was supposed to be just another way to pass the time. Nothing special, until of course it was.I won't bore you with the details of the Chapters game and what I thought of the book's conclusion on there because the truth is, Chapters as a short story game? Could never do the Fallen Angel series, or Halo, for that matter, any real justice. Which is ultimately how and why, I ended up here. Because once I got a "taste" of what the book had to offer, I found myself wanting more, and boy, did Ella and Brooke deliver more in spades.Halo and Viper are two of the most magnificently magnetic characters that I have come across in years in all my of reading romance novels. So much so that I found myself coming back to continue reading when I had a free moment during the day, or before I went to bed at night. Halo, at first, appearing to be just your typical heterosexual male, hungry for a chance at stardom after playing in empty dive bars for so many years with no real successes to show for it, until he sends in an audition tape to TBD, a band known to him and thousands of others as a rock success story, if there ever was one, and ends up becoming not only the lead singer in a band looking for both a fresh start and a new sound, but becoming the object of desire for his fellow bandmate's, Viper, the known play boy of the group who can easily be described as the "love 'em and leave 'em" type to say the very least.Halo, and the Fallen Angel series itself is a mixture of humor, sexiness, and romance that if you're anything like myself, will only disappoint you with its brevity as each character and each storyline is so beautifully designed to leave the reader wanting more. 5 stars for me, wasn't nearly enough!

Talk about hot! This covers all the feels including jealousy. Nailed it. Definitely will need to finish this series. Good read

Very good as usual and so hot. Viper and Halo were just burning up the pages with their chemistry. On to the next one.

This is my first m/m romance and I gotta say I am hooked. The chemistry between Viper and Halo was smoldering the entire time till they both just went up in a deliciously sensual flame. I am here for it. I loved the bandmates atmosphere as well as Halo being straight and fighting his budding feelings for Viper. I also liked how the story didn't focus on Viper and Halo being FWB as a weird thing, like all the bandmates could tell and didn't mind at all. I enjoyed that not being the typical romance trope throw about. It really focused on Halo joining the band and his and Vipers relationship. Viper also acting like the big strong alpha male who never sleeps with the same person twice except for when he meets Halo was adorable, yes I said it, adorable! Definitely give this a read it's so good and easy to follow, finished it in a day and I need MORE!

I was uncertain wether I’d enjoy this story but I can honestly say im glad I bought it . It’s about a very successful band TBD who’s lead singer Trent Knox decided to walk out on them ,the rest of the band who are Killan,Viper,Jagger,& Slade are left in a state of shock . In an attempt to carry on with TBD they hold auditions for another lead singer and after many disappointing candidates they finally get one that fits their needs . Enter Halo who is exactly what they’re looking for so they offer him the job , their first gig to introduce Halo as the new lead singer doesn’t go well when some of the fans obviously don’t like that they’ve got a new lead singer, and start to boo and chant for Trent to return . When they finish the gig the band drown their sorrows , but soon realise that they don’t want to loose Halo the group decide to reinvent themselves . Whilst they try to get back on track things begin to hot up between Halo ,who is heterosexual and Viper ,who is definitely gay , but neverthe less there is a slow build up of sexual tension between the pair until they can’t ignore it anymore. Can’t wait to see how this story is going to pan out thank goodness there’s not a long wait for book 2 😉.

Can I say first that the cover of this book is just delicious and so very hot and I can't wait to see Viper's image in the next book released March 25th 2019.If you have read Preslocked by these author's and loved it then this one will blow you away as well, the chemistry between Halo and Viper is intense and just makes you want more.I don't want to give too much away but the gist of the new series is this, TBD is one of the hottest bands around that is until their frontman Trent walks out and disappears. Forced to find a new frontman the guys are impressed by young talented Halo, especially Viper. He blows them away by his looks his voice and his presence and after a disastrous concert the guys decide to reinvent themselves and take Halo on a ride he will never forget. Recommended.

I don't know how I stumbled across this book. I have certainly read more than one book just like it... but that didn't stop me enjoying every single minute of it. Once I started, I couldn't put it down and finished it in a single setting.It did end on somewhat of a cliff hanger in that whilst there were virtually no surprises in this book, I have no idea what is going to happen next. It reached a definite climatic end (ha, pun), but there are a bunch of left over loose ends and you can definitely tell this is part of a series... one I definitely will be reading more of.It doesn't need to original to be very well written and a good read.

I wanted to give this story a go because I'm a big fan of Rockstar Romances but I was a little wary because I'm not a fan of same sex love stories. I skimmed over the sex scenes between Viper and Halo because It's just not my thing I would have preferred If a woman was thrown into the mix of Viper and Halo and made it into a love triangle that would be my ideal. I'm giving this four stars because it was written well and I sort of liked it but I won't be in a rush to read the next one in the series that's for sure.

Wow..loved this book. Viper was a man on a mission knowing what he wants and going for it.Halo did not know what hit him. Having thought he was straight, then finding a man attractive.No way did I want to treat this like the Temptation series. Even thought Viper was relentless in his pursuit it was on a different level.I will give a better review after. Very enjoyable.
