Rating: 5 out of 5

There are 12 Archangel's, 12 Couples and 12 months to create the Holy warriors needed to prevent the demon abominations from destroying the earth.  Only now our Angels need to step up their game plan.Toren The Mercury Warrior is as hot as they come.  In the previous book he actually rescues his wife to be and kisses her (this is important to remember).  But he wipes her memory so she forgets the terrible ordeal.  When it's Toren's time to go to earth and find his couple and claim his wife his Mercury is warring with him and he tries to tap it down. Strange feelings like anxiety creep in and a strong protective/possessive urge wants to take over.  These feelings/reactions are totally out of character for him.Toren has to capture Sam's heart without using any angelic powers/help and Azure and Kenra did a fabulous job playing this story out.  The love scenes are scorching hot and the temptation Toren battles against to give in and consummate his marriage to Sam before and after he reveals what he is, is point on.  The dream scene OMG was amazing.  Sam actually thought she was dreaming while she's cuddling up to Toren and he responds. It's a constant battle to fight what I like to say "His Mercury Rising." He even turns to his brothers Kassern and Dorn to find out why he has these emotions before he's found his couple.  You see how deeply he cares for her when he does something so compassionate after he hears her crying. I don't want to reveal anything here because it will take away from that squeeze in your heart reaction when you read it.There are so many scenes in this book that are worth mentioning so here are a few of my teasers.  Toren's couple Ezekiel and Skylar.  Skylar was a rodeo queen and was totally abused by her stepfather.  Ezekiel ex-military is some righteous fool who has a cleanliness fetish and thinks all American Women are whores, and this was Toren's couple. Ezekiel is less than cordial to Skylar and ends up suffering the wrath of Toren.  I loved how this played out and how Skylar broke down the cement walls around his heart.When Toren was finally able to consummate his marriage to Sam she has a flash back of when she was in the convent pregnant delivering the devils monsters and close to death.  Here is where she remembers Toren and his kiss.  Here is where the connection occurs with Peggy (Peggy is Toren's inner being not sure how else to explain this) and the devils little monsters and Sam, and may be the reason Toren had this strong protective/possessive pull towards Sam in his Angel form, and Peggy is protecting the little monsters because part of Sam is in them.The ending chapters are unbelievable and this is a must read.  I give this book 5* and can't wait for Lyght's book.
