Fallen is Book #4 in the Blood & Roses series, and picks up where Burn left off...I LOVE Zeth. He is ridiculously sexy, raw, and incredibly complex. I LOVE that with each new installment in the B & R series, more layers of Zeth the big bad wolf are peeled back - and he becomes vulnerable and *romantic* (Zeth you say?? Oh heck yeah - and in the way you'd expect from Zeth! :)) while still remaining strong and all alpha (how does Callie pull that one off??!!) And the reader gets even more insight into his troubled history and upbringing, as well as his relationship with his mother - not enough to explain away all about him, but just enough to keep him REAL and us wanting MORE."Because from the moment I saw you...I haven't stood a chance." O.M.G.!!!I LOVE Sloane. She continues to come into her own as a strong heroine (angry girl ;)) capable of holding her own against not only Zeth (props to girlfriend for some of her witty comebacks - which she never would have been brave enough to utter back in the beginning of their relationship! ;)), but also against the ones who are good and bad in his life. Which is now *HER* life as well. He has helped her to realize strengths within her that were always there - just not put to the test...he has brought LIFE to her life, awakening passion and fight and spunk - moving her out of auto-pilot status and into the land of the living and fighting.I LOVE this series - but I really really LOVED Fallen! :) I was gifted an ARC in exchange for my honest review, but this is the honest truth. There is more action and suspense in this installment, several interesting unexpected twists, and GOSH the tenderness displayed throughout...sigh-worthy. Sloane's realization that she truly loves and cares for this man, Zeth's promise to be her prince....swoooooon. The continuing and building sexual chemistry and HOTT-ness between these two...still.off.the.freakin'.chart.!!!!! Zeth will protect his woman to the death if need be, and she will do anything for her man without thought - they can never go back to what they once were, because they are now too far in, too far gone with one another. And despite the ongoing danger to their lives (Charlie is an even bigger and creepier bastard!!), they are good alone, but SO MUCH better together. Period."If you want to go, Sloane...I'l make it happen. For you, I can switch characters. I will be Prince Charming for a night." BESTEST line ever - left me with the stupidest cheesiest grin. :)Callie Hart, you've done it again - left me happily satisfied with a book yet also craving the instant gratification of the next installment. <3 <3 The series is extremely well written, and the storyline always leaves me wanting MORE!! There are still more questions to be answered, more layers to peel back...and oh gosh who else really wants to know more about Michael??? :)
