Hold on to your reading devices, ladies and gentlemen. You’re about to embark on one hell of a ride that’s sure to leave you reeling.Fallen is definitely the most action-packed book of this series as it centers around Charlie’s quest to get to Zeth by any means necessary. And what is one to do when you can’t find your intended target? Why, you go after those that he cares about the most, of course!Callie is brilliant in the way that she constantly reveals different layers to her characters with each release. Their depth slowly comes to light and I feel like there is always something new to learn about Zeth and Sloane, and something new to fall in love with.I may have been hesitant with Zeth Mayfair in book one, but he’s most certainly my favorite in the Blood and Roses series now. As his feelings for Sloane consume him even more, he begins to let down the guard that he’s always kept up. He’s passionate. Sweet. Caring. And oh my God! There were so many parts that I just wanted to climb into the story to give this man a hug!! Sure, he has a dangerous and intimidating side to him. That will never, ever, go away. But that’s not WHO he is. And it’s most definitely not ALL he is.Sloane Rivera had some parts toward the beginning of the story where I just wanted to smack her. In my eyes she was playing games with Zeth, and oddly enough, that bothered me. She quickly came to her senses, however, and I forgave her. It was nice to see her finally admitting to herself just what it was that she wanted from this situation. It’s also amazing to see just how far she’s come from the first time that we met her character. She has a backbone now and has proven that she’s more than capable of standing up for herself, and for the things that she wants.Overall, I would have to give Fallen four stars! It was a fast paced story that kept me on the edge of my seat until the very end. I can’t wait to see what’s in store for us in the next installment of this series. All I know is that I want more as soon as possible!*This book was given to me for an honest review. The fact that it was given to me in no way reflects what I rate a book.*
