Publisher's Summary

They broke my halo. Burned my wings. Sent me plummeting straight to Hell.

When I'm captured by demons and forced into the fighting pits of the Seventh Circle of Hell, I need to stay alive long enough to claw my way back to Heaven and destroy the archangels who betrayed me.

Four dangerous men stand between me and my vengeance.

A deadly Nephilim in self-imposed exile. Hunger incarnate, ravenous for an angel. The heir to Satan's sinful throne. And the prince who bound my soul to his until I win my freedom. They think I'm still pure. They think I'm innocent. They think they'll enjoy corrupting me.

Joke's on them. This angel's no saint. If Heaven doesn't want me, I'll be bad for the Hell of it.

Contains mature themes.

Awesome Story & Narration🎧 Fascinating🔥PNR🔥

Wow, this is an awesome paranormal reverse harem romance. Cate Corvin is a gifted author, she created a fascinating and original story, the storylines, characters and world dynamics are imaginative yet realistic enough to relate to and connect with. The book grabs your attention right from the start and holds it captive straight to the end. Melisande, a fallen angel who was unjustly pushed from Heaven into Hell and she is not happy about it. Trying to pick herself up she finds her white wings are now blackened, she is also hurting and to make her day even worse she gets captured by a demon, Belial, the Prince of Wrath. Belial has plans for the fallen angel and brings her back to home, the Seventh Circle of Hell. She wants to find her way back to Heaven and Gabriel, she wants her revenge but she will have to fight her way out of Hell to get it. Melisande is on badass angel, she stands up to the best of them and even grows a fan base. She meets some interesting characters down there too, befriending Tascius, a warrior, a son of a nephilim and archangel. Lucifer takes to her as well, as does Azazel who had to make his own deal with the devil to help save his sister Vyra from him. I loved how everything plays out in this book, there is great world building and the story is cleverly plotted. There is never a dull moment with is plenty of drama, angst, thrilling and suspenseful moments, some emotional and heartfelt moments and some hot romance. I am curious to see happens next for Melissande, what will become of her and her demons and angels. Also, hints are dropped, there seems to be some sort of master plan going on, where does she and the other characters fit in. I am looking forward to finding out, hope the book comes to Audible soon. Cate Corvin, thank you for this wonderful story!

Sarah Puckett and Alexander Cendese are talented, top notch narrators and voice artists. They bring the characters to life, giving each their own voice and personality. as well as heart and attitude. They do an amazing job portraying the characters, Sarah Puckett truly grasped Melisande’s persona, capturing her badassery to a tee, sounding just as I pictured her to sound. Alexander Cendese was awesome portraying his characters too, the alpha demons and archangels. Both are entertaining storytellers and a pleasure to listen to. Thank you for another awesome listen🎧

unexpectedly unique

interesting world creation and the romantic interests aren't formulaic.

only real issue was with the male narrator's version of a female voice.

Can't believe over 100 people liked it!!

There is too much to unpack without a spoiler alert. So I'll generalize my disappointment with this book. I'd like to first say Sara Puckett did a great job as usual. Alexander Cendese didn't work for me at all. First he mispronounced every single name, which was very annoying. Both he and Sarah spoke for the same male and female characters, which is never a good idea. ESPECIALLY when they are so difficult and don't pronounce names the same. FYI she got them right and he really dropped the ball.
To summarize the fight scenes were lacking choppy and amateurish at best. Sex scenes were not much better. The M.C. is a Marry Sue and most of the world building was sloppy and haphazard. Basically the only good thing about this book was Sara Puckett. But thats not enough to save it. The plot holes in the story were mind blowing. I CANNOT RECOMMEND THIS BOOK IN GOOD CONSCIENCE. Save your money.

Fantastic book and narrators!

Cate Corvin is a new author to me and now I cant wait to devour the rest of her books. These is so much action in this book. Melisand has to deal with betrayal and fighting for her life in Hell. She is such a strong character she takes everything as it comes and kicks ass. I fell in love with Cassius immediately. I love how they call each other friend when addressing each other. The book has a lot of steamy scenes. The ending broke my heart a now now ned to start the next audible soni know what happens. As always Sarah Puckett is a fantastic narrator. I love the emotions she puts in to the characters voices. Alexander Cendese did a great job with the male's voices. I really enjoyed this audible and listening to these narrators.

Great Story and Characters a must listen!

I love this fallen angel, she is kick ass and nothing is going to stop her from her goals (revenge - whatever). She has her world turned upside down and keeps adjusting and love me some demons. Great male characters are all different with different agendas, Can't get enough of the story line. Love the narrators, the one thing I will say is why is that women can do male voices and make them sound sexy but when the men do the female voices the so miss the mark? I cannot wait for book 2.

hot, suspenseful, excellent narration

I am getting book two..now. Well worth the credit! Sex, Sci Fi. action, mystery. love love love it!1

For the love of sin this book was HOT!!!

In my personal opinion this book was amazing. The story was smooth and flow easily, Mellasan growth through the book was very believable and she had you rooting for her the entire time.
The performers did there part justice and I am extremely excited to read the next two in the series. 😊❤️💕

narrator

Sarah Puckett has a lovely voice and brings her characters to life with it. she does have some issues with pronunciations though, particularly with the names of some demons and creatures.
Alexander Cendese on the other hand has an extremely whiney voice and I dont believe he was a good choice for this book, I'm sure he would do a wonderful job with a villainous character but cannot quite voice the deep baritone I expected.

the story is beautiful, just what you want from a RH romance. melisande is a strong woman who will allow noone power over her and will not be deterred from her path. definitely worth the read.

GREAT story, not so great male narrator

LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BOOK! It’s everything I want in a reverse harem story! The only drawback is the male narrator in my opinion... Maybe it’s just personal preference but I didn’t really enjoy his voice... It’s fine though because most chapters are narrated by the heroine ☺️

Cheap Dimestore Romance

Gag me with a spoon... This is HORRIBLE, cheap dime store sex romance of an angel in Hell. I tolerated a bit over an hour, then dumped it as complete trash.

Good but unneccessary sex scenes

I liked the plot in theory of an angel fallen into hell. But the story didn't even begin to resolve and there was random sex scenes that made absolutely no sense. I swear she had sex with everyone for absolutely no reason and with so many people it was hard to keep track. Nor did she ever address the fact she slept with practically every male character in this book. Not a fan and don't think I'll purchase the next one. The story just didn't hold my attention.

So good

This one was so good, I didn’t know what to expect but it’s hot, full of suspense and excitement, and the chemistry will knock your socks off
