The Angel Wore Fangs: A Deadly Angels Book

When I first read the outrageously ridiculous description for this book, I knew I had to read it. Not because I thought it would be good, but because I thought that it would at least make me laugh. Boy was I wrong. It got to the point where I only finished it so that I could say I survived this awful book.The description promises the reader a vampire viking angel that fights ISIS and demon vampires and ends up travailing back in time, all while falling in love with a hot chef. Sounds like it should at least be action packed right? Wrong. Not only does the main character, Cnut -yes, that is the characters actual name- not fight any members of ISIS, he is not even the one to save the sister who has been kidnapped. The whole reason he met Andrea was because she needed someone to help save her sister. He ends up having one of his brothers save her while he goes back in time to canoodle with his new lady friend. When it comes to the vampire demons, he fights maybe three or four throughout the entire book. The action lasts for maybe a paragraph and there is never a sense of real danger. Now in a romance book, I might be willing to overlook the lack of action and plot if the relationship was worth reading about, but it's not. They meet, they get the tingles, they fight, they kiss, and they fight again. There is no real chemistry between them, everything seems forced and unnatural. You wanna know the real plot of this story?It is that the two of them go back in time and play house, where she takes on the traditional household chores while he goes out and does manly things. He admires the way she doesn't make a fuss and helps out with the cooking and the cleaning even though she has been plucked from the 21st century with a stranger and is way out of her element. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with a woman wanting to help out and a man providing for his household, I'm just saying that in a book that promises demons and ISIS, this should not be the majority of your book.It also doesn't help that the main villain is completely laughable. His name is Jasper for one thing and perhaps it is just me, but that name is about as intimidating as Tim or Sheldon. He is the kind of bad guy that you look at and feel pity for because he is just that pathetic. His underling, Zeb, is also weird. Towards the end of the book, he comes in takes Andrea back to her home and drops her off safe and sound and then does the same for Cnut. I guess he wants to be a good guy, but it reflects poorly on the hero when the supposed bad guy is the one who saves the day.So that is everything wrong with the actual plot, but the writing is just awful. When a character laughs, Sandra Hill writes it out as "Ha ha ha". She also had a tendency to write "or something" and "or whatever" at the end of many of her sentences. For example, "Her hair was in a bun or something". There is literally no reason to write it that way. Just say the woman's hair was in a bun! There were many times that I would stare at a sentence, reread it and sigh because it was just awful.And lastly, the part that made me put the book down and walk away for a good couple of hours is this:"'Tingle. Every time you come near me, I smell peppermint, and my skin gets all tingly. Look.'" She drew up the long sleeve of her gown to show him her forearm where the blonde hairs were standing on end. 'See. Tingly.' He grinned at her, not taking her seriously at all. Or so she thought. Until he extended his own forearm to show her the dark blond hairs raised like a field of erotic antennae. 'Coconut tingles,' he explained."Congratulations Sandra Hill, that was probably the worst thing I have ever read.

Well here we are, all of the 7 Deadly Sins (and 7 brothers) taken care of so is this the end of the series .... of course not, there are some serious threads hanging that require 1 more book at a minimum and no I won't tell you since that will be a spoiler (which means some doofus will spoil it)While I really have enjoyed this series including this book, I was put off a bit by Cnut being portrayed as a pretty smart guy in the other books and seemed like she made him a bit more stupid in this book about him. He and Andrea made a great couple, plus the locations and the plot was much different than the other books. All these things work together to make this a very entertaining novel for this series.Bottom Line: The romance was kind of weak but enjoyable, the plot changed after the first couple of chapters and took off on a different line than the other books, to be honest the "bad guys" played a much smaller part than other books. So 4 Stars and can't wait to get the next one (not a cliffhanger but very close in some ways) and hats off to Sandra Hill for being able to take such a ridiculous premise as Viking Vampire Angels and make them addicting and entertaining reading.

Another wild ride with the Deadly Angels. Cnut is helping Andrea find her sister when they are both swept away to another time. He is put back to the time he started in and he is trying right all of his wrongs. Andrea isn't particularly happy to be there, but will make the best of it while she is there. She only hopes her sister is safe and that she can some day get back to her old life. Zeb has been tasked with bringing Cnut back to Jasper. If he doesn't, he will be in eternal torment. If he does, Cnut will be in eternal torment. Will he sacrifice himself? If he does, what will happen to Andrea who is his lifemate?

As always Sandra Hill's Vangel series does not disappoint. Been waiting a long time to read about Cnut. Love these damn...err, darn Vangels.Cnut paying for his past sin of gluttony is now a ripped and muscled Vangel who comes to the aid of Andrea. Andrea enlists his service to find her sister who, is believed to be tied up with a man who is with ISIS.Somehow while trying to help Andrea, Cnut travels back in time with her. Cnut is back home in his time with his people, but for Andrea it is a new world...or rather an old world. Andrea and Cnut are not the only ones who traveled back. The Lucipers (demons that the Vangels are tasked to destroy).Where Vangels tread....Lucipers fear. Only God knows...or in this case the archangel Michael why Cnut has been sent back.Lots of LOL moments along with cheering goes into the reading of this book. A must for Vangel lovers!

Loved this one, the last of the 7 brothers, such a sweetheart and redemption just a little to boot. Female love was just a little to easy to believe, but it honestly worked. Was very glad to see that the author is going to continue because to leave us with Zebs fate would have soured the series for me. So awesome next book will be his. The teaser chapter included the witch vangle, wow can't wait. I can see Armand and a few of the others getting an HEA. Thanks Sandra for a really entertaining series and please give us more Vikings.

Another great read have really enjoyed this series so far! I really hope that wicked Zeb's story is a good as the rest, he came good at the end didn't he! I think Michael should cut him some slack!

For those taking it seriously - come on just read the description you know you're not supposed to take it so seriously lol. I initially picked this up as a joke to show off to friends because the premise honestly sounds really stupid. To my surprise when I did read it, I found myself blazing through the pages in only a couple of hours. The characters are fun and the story is ridiculous but very, very entertaining and doesn't take itself too seriously. The author knows what she's doing writing it this way. This was my first book from this author but I'll probably try her other books now because this one was just so fun to read!

I read this as part of a dare or pact, if you will, to read something stupid and surprisingly, it wasn't as bad as I expected. It wasn't great but it was written well enough to tip it over the edge to be good. This genre isn't one I normally read but I approached it with an open mind. If you are a fan of this genre, you will probably enjoy this book.

Affreusement mauvais!!!! Texte simple et pauve. Le cadeau humour/punition parfait pour l'ami passionne de lecture sci-fi/fantasy.Incapable de finir le roman, mais nous avons encore du plaisir a se rememorer les "Vangels".Je ne planifie jamais acheter les autres numeros de la serie. There is more....

I love the series and I read a lot of Sandra Hill love her books
