For almost two centuries, Ildaria Garcia has been on the run, a trouble magnet with a knack for taking down bad guys. Lately, her vigilante tendencies have drawn unwelcome attention to her fellow Immortals. Forced to relocate, Ildaria is supposed to lay low in a new town. Instead, she quickly entangles herself with six and a half feet of muscular, tattooed trouble. Joshua James Simpson Guiscard, aka G.G., knows a lot about Immortals—enough to make him wary. Yet from the moment Ildaria walks into his club, he feels desire stronger than anything he’s known. Accepting the fact that they might be life mates is disconcerting. But when her past catches up to them, G.G. faces a choice—confront his demons at last, or lose a passion that’s hot as hell.
Immortal Angel is exactly what I remember from reading this series years ago. Ildaria is a strong person, dealing with trauma and fear in her own way. Her biggest fault is her difficulty in accepting, never mind asking for, help. G.G. is equally strong and independent, with a matching need to protect those around him. I liked watching these two get to know each other and find their way to happy compromise before the dangers even really arise. Although there was on point at which his decision making without her input, or any communication at all really, bothered me tremendously. I thought the danger elements were well done, but to be honest I fully expected another twist or attempt to hurt one or both of them to pop up. The story did not need it, but I was still half expecting it. As a lapsed reader of this series, it was nice seeing a good number of the characters I remember take supporting roles here.It was an enjoyable and nostalgic read for me.
Immortal Angel is a good addition to a long running series that long time, returning, and new readers can enjoy.
