The Darkest Angel (Gena Showalter)
SUMMARY
Winged warrior Lysander has been alive for centuries, and yet he's never known
desire—until he meets Bianka. Spawned from the bloodline of his enemy, the beautiful but deadly Harpy is determined to lead the untouched Lysander into temptation. He may try to evade her attempts, but even the most iron-willed demon assassin can resist for only so long…
MY REVIEW
Lysander: Angel (one of the Elite Seven)
Bianka Skyhawk: Harpy (daughter of a Harpy and a phoenix shape-shifter and great-granddaughter of Lucifer)
Lysander wants to snatch Bianka just to save this world from her dark influence. She is a manipulator, a killer, a liar, a thief and lately she is his obsession.
Lysander is moreover a virgin. He doesn’t like the thought of sex. It looks messy and un-fun. But somehow every time, Lysander thinks of Bianka, he simultanuesly thinks of sex.
Anyway, Bianka needs to be trained. So Lysander grabs her and takes her to his cloud/palace.
“I was not teasing you. I mean to keep you here forever and train you to be sinless.”
But he really does not understand harpies.
“Gods, how—oops, sorry. I mean, golly, how adorable are you? ‘I mean to keep you here forever and train you,’” she said in her best impersonation of him.
....“Be honest,” she said. “You saw me and wanted a piece, right?”
Poor clueless Lysander
For the briefest of moments, horror blanketed his face. “No,” he croaked out, then cleared his throat and said more smoothly, “No.”
…That muscle started ticking below his eye again. “You are a menace.”
Before he realizes what is going on, he is a mess, his life is a mess, his cloud is a mess and Bianka is having the time of her life. And Lysander is virgin no more.
This is one of my favourite couples in the series. They will appear on and off in the next books.
Favourite scene: Lysander and Paris are fighting in a large tub of oil wearing only loincloths.
“Was that fun for you?”
“Yes.”
Naughty Bianka!
