About HAWKYN:
From New York Times and USA Today bestselling author Larissa Ione comes a new story in her Demonica Underworld series…
As a special class of earthbound guardian angel called Memitim, Hawkyn is charged with protecting those whose lives are woven into the fabric of the future. His success is legendary, so when he’s given a serial killer to watch over, he sees no reason for that to change. But Hawkyn’s own future is jeopardized after he breaks the rules and rescues a beautiful woman from the killer’s clutches, setting off an explosive, demonic game of cat and mouse that pits brother against brother and that won’t end until someone dies.
Aurora Mercer is the half-wytch lone survivor of a psychopath who gets off on the sadistic torture of his victims. A psychopath whose obsessive psyche won’t let him move on until he kills her. Now she’s marked for death, her fate tied to that of a murderer…and to a sexy angel who makes her blood burn with desire…
**Every 1001 Dark Nights novella is a standalone story. For new readers, it’s an introduction to an author’s world. And for fans, it’s a bonus book in the author’s series. We hope you'll enjoy each one as much as we do.**
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
i haven't read all of Larissa Ione's Demonica series - only a few as they appear in the 1001 Dark Nights because, well, 1001 Dark Nights! Here's where i knew i was in trouble - Hawkyn's book made me so very curious about the Demonica world and gave readers the very first glimpse into the new Master & Mercenary crossover series with Lexi Blake.
Now I just want to know more about the angels who are given humans to protect to earn their place in heaven, while so very excited about what this author is working on next. While mixed in with much of paranormal aspects, it didn't feel overwhelming, Hawkyn was an entertaining story about the angel in charge of protecting a serial killer and the victim that the angel saved.
You would have thought that Aurora would have been a bigger force to be reckoned with considering her history, but honestly, i liked the fact that Larisa Ione made her vulnerable. It made her more vulnerable and relatable - while incredibly powerful, she still has limits forcing her to rely on Hawkyn to make it out alive. For his part, i was surprised by Hawkyn because for someone who is the biggest stickler for protocol and has never broken them, he was the first to protect the little wytch.
I enjoyed this book - the getting back to a few character i've read in the past, finding out how the Master & Mercenaries series crossover would happen and at the same time, wanting to cheer for this couple when you'd think their relationship was doomed considering their circumstances, and i can only hoe i won't be waiting too long for the next book!
