From USA Today Bestselling author, RenĂ©e Carlino, comes a totally unique and different love story that’s sure to make you question what’s really out there…or who.

“My guardian angel is a drunk.”

Evelyn Casey’s life is at a standstill. She’s in her mid-twenties, struggling with the dating scene in San Francisco. Nothing seems to be working out, and she’s starting to think that she’ll live out her days in her crummy apartment with her overbearing roommate, Brooklyn. It’s absurd, but sometimes Evey longs for a guardian angel to show up and save the day.

And then he does. Seriously. His name is Lucian and he’s a guardian angel, been on the job for two thousand years. His sudden presence in her life is both good—he’s brilliant, witty, and warm—and bad—he’s brilliant, witty, warm, and hot as —-. But as perfect as Lucian seems, he’s got problems of his own. He’s taken up drinking and he’s brazenly inserted himself into Evey’s life, going against the greatest cosmic law ever created.

For Evey, the rules are simple: You are not allowed to hook up with your guardian angel. But sometimes fulfilling your destiny requires a leap of faith, a confrontation with God.

Yes, God as in God.

My Review

This story was heartbreakingly beautiful. My heart is still hurting over it and that ending definitely didn't help matters!!

Evelyn was a good girl turned good woman. She was just a really good person. She had a job she hated in the field that she loved. She had a supportive father and a mom who pushed her to excel. She had a best friend that has always been there for her, but secretly harbours jealousy in her heart and takes Evey for granted. She had very little luck when it came to dating (a lot of frogs). Oh and she had an incredibly delicious guardian angel. yes, that's right, an angel. Who happens to be stupidly in love with her. And then she falls in love with him. What they share goes against all of the rules Lucian has lived by for 2000 years! Will true love prevail? Read the book to find out ;)

Fave parts: the banter, the angels, the way the angels walked in our world, and the obvious effort the author made to create this story.

Genre: Paranormal Romance
POV: Dual - 1st person
Steam: 2 out of 5
