Holy hell. This book took me to hell and back. I struggled at times with the characters but the way this author writes had me sucked in not wanting to miss a detail. By the end, my heart wanted to break but then it also wanted to rejoice. Religion really is a tricky thing. It is a prime example of power corrupting and also a way to believe. Such a dichotomy. ( )

Wow just wow, I absolutely inhaled this book, I mean I was expecting great things here but this surpassed all my exceptions with its addictive and unique storyline and I can't wait for the next one in this series to release so I can continue my onward journey alongside the Fallen and The Brethren.
We are originally introduced to "The Fallen" in the prequel to this, so you really do need to read that before this just to get a heads up into the way this world has been set up.
This one concentrates on Raphael and Maria it's dark, depraved and twisted from the onset.
Just how I like them
The reality that we face here is so far from the normally accepted view of what is morally right but Gabriel The Fallens kind of self-appointed priest has put in place a set of tenent's to protect not only the innocent but to also shield his brothers while also sating their inner monsters by setting them free on those that he feels deserve there particular type of justice.
So Maria manages to get herself caught in the crosshairs of both The Fallen and The Brethren, sort of collateral damage if you will.
The dance then between her and Raphael was just so intense from the minute he lays eyes on her he knows shes it and the commandments hes lived by up until now take second place to his new obsession, his Rose.
This was a battle between light and dark and Raphael to me was all about contrasts.
Take Raph's Roses the similarities there were in the way he nurtures and coax's them to full bloom before plucking the flower and the way he views his Rose.
The same hands that seem to deliver both life and death.
Raphael's own internal image of love has been completely warped by his past affecting all his interactions beyond what's considered normal and Maria's own dark past has also damaged her leaving her very susceptive to Raphael's unique brand of care.
This was everything I adore in a new series and I was gripped and invested instantly.
The ongoing battle with the Brethren was nicely continued and set-up for future story growth and I can't wait to see what this author has in store for us.
Highly recommend this one especially if you like them dark and unusual on that front this one delivers in spades, bring on the next.
I voluntary reviewed a copy of Raphael (Deadly Virtues, #1).
