MY REVIEW

Beautiful Redeemer by Kait Ballenger is a blend of two of my favorites, Lucifer and Fifty Shades Of Gray. I have been loving this series and Kait smashed it out of the park in the finale of the Original Sinners trilogy. I love the amazing covers.

We have all the players, from gods and goddesses, to demons and humans. Christianity takes a hit when the righteous rise, thinking they know how the world should be run. Lucifer has a target on his back, and seeing he has lost his powers and his mortality, his life it at risk…and the righteous aren’t the only ones who want to take him out. Charlotte, Queen of Hell, is determined to stop the apocalypse and, if she has to face off with God, that’s not a problem for her.

This is my kind of romance. In your face, at times brutal, at other times sweet, but always passionate. Charlotte definitely has her hands full with Lucifer AND Azrael.

So, if you are the least bit squeamish, you may want to shy away from the Original Sinners. BUT, if you are like me and love walking on the dark side, come on in.

My thanks go out to Kait Ballenger, Montlake and NetGalley for the opportunity to review Beautiful Redeemer.

GOODREADS BLURB

Lucifer’s wife, Death’s lover, mother of the apocalypse—a young bride’s desire breaks all bounds in the explosive conclusion to Kait Ballenger’s Original Sinners trilogy.

I never asked to be the queen of Hell, but now the crown burns against my skin—and every choice drips with sin.

Lucifer, my devil of a husband, feeds me power kiss by kiss, lash by lash. Azrael, Death incarnate, tempts me with the brutal devotion only he can give. They both worship me. They both ruin me. And I can’t get enough.

I won’t be made to choose.

But indulgence has its price. The apocalypse is splitting the sky. The Righteous hunt us with holy fire, and New York drowns. On the eve of my unholy wedding, all the armies of Heaven descend and all-out war begins. My greatest weapon is the impossible child growing inside the secret that could save or damn us all.

To protect humanity and seize my dark salvation, I’ll fight. I’ll bleed. I’ll burn. And when the last seal shatters, I’ll rise again…or stay on my knees forever.

    MY REVIEW

    I am super excited to be back in Charlotte and Lucifer’s world in the Wicked Believer by Kait Ballenger, the sequel to Original Sinner. Let’s do a recap. God brought Lucifer and the seven deadly sins to New York City…and vanished. A celestial war is on the horizon. Charlotte is no longer the good little Christian. Not since Lucifer got his hands on her. She is walking on the dark side, growing and learning to stand on her own. The sex is sizzling hot. He is the dominant and she is the submissive, but…

    Queen of my own damned life. Queen of my own goddamn choices.

    “Not a fallen angel. Not a demon. Not a human, but something else in between.”

    There are a lot of triggers in Charlotte and Lucifer’s erotic world, so be sure you are ready to walk on the dark side. I was lost in it. The darker it got, the more intense it felt. I loved all the changes that Charlotte is going through. I loved being on the sidelines and watching sides being taken as the apocalypse approaches. Charlotte is not going to stand behind Lucifer and let him drive the boat,. She’s going to be front and center. The kink level rises, and Charlotte does not shy away from it. She embraces it. I was reading along, white knuckled, eager to read the next word, the next sentence, the next chapter, and then….it came to an end.

    I love everything about Wicked Believer and I want to thank Kait Ballenger and Montlake for the opportunity to read and review it. I can hardly wait for the next book, seeing there is war on the horizon.

    GOODREADS BLURB

    Author Kait Ballenger whips up a spicy sequel to Original Sinner, a no-holds-barred dark romance where the devil and his queen-to-be explore the bounds of kink, even as they stand on the brink of war.

    I wasn’t always immortal. And I’m not sure I’ll ever get the hang of it. Not like Lucifer, a.k.a. Pride. He and the other seven deadly sins, the high-profile billionaires who run this city, make the divine life look easy.

    I came to New York a good, if damaged, Christian girl. Then Lucifer opened my eyes to the darkness. To the hunger burning inside me. To a world of pain and pleasure like nothing I’ve ever known. Now it’s all I crave. He’s all I crave.

    But as I grapple with this new existence—and the events that led me to it—unseen forces push me and Lucifer apart. Paparazzi track my every move, Lucifer’s family plays their wicked games, and I hardly know who I am anymore. Or who I’m meant to be.

    A celestial war is brewing, and Lucifer’s siblings are out for blood—and the dark power inside me calls me to join the fight.
