Cast From Heaven: A Paranormal Fantasy Romance by Leigh KelseyMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
OK Idea
This book is about Liliana an angel. Liliana is actually a 'mixed-species' angel and as such is looked down upon. Her lover is a senior type angel and she feels lucky to be loved by him. Because she feels this way she is easily manipulated into being a spy for her lover in hell. She quickly learns that her lover was just using her and doesn't care for her well being at all, in fact he would be quite happy for her to not survive the mission she is totally untrained for.
This book has left me conflicted about my opinion. On one hand the story is quite good and the idea is not bad, but on the other hand it’s got some flaws in the execution.
My main problem is that Liliana is pretty weak. She’s looking for affection from anyone and everyone and seems to have all the self protection of a sleepy kitten.
I also didn’t like that she was left alone so much, with no support, nothing to occupy her and then dragged into dangerous situations with no training by people who supposedly cared for her. It meant that I didn’t believe the emotions that were supposed to be there.
Essentially, I didn’t really connect with the characters very much and felt that the plot needed more thought and tightening up.
