And So The Breaking Begins: Mindbreaker Duet, Book 1 (An Age of War and Prophecy 3)
Lacey Lehotzky
by Cynthia Eden
When you betray an angel, there is hell to pay.
Sammael. His name is whispered. He is feared. Once upon a time, Sammael—Sam to his enemies—was the most powerful angel of death in heaven. But he went rogue and was cast down to live with humans. Since Sam is well acquainted with sin, he enjoys being earthbound. He’s a supernatural powerhouse, the baddest of the bad, and he always gets what he wants. And right now, he wants…her.
She looks like sin but with a touch of innocence.
Seline O’Shaw tempts Sam. Torments him. And he knows that he should not trust her—not for a moment. But lust and trust don’t have to go hand in hand, so Sam takes what he wants. There is magic that whispers in the air around Seline. Magic that can tempt someone even as strong as Sam.
Her job is to kill him, not lust after him.
So she’s a supernatural assassin. Sue her. Not like Seline has ever been given a choice in what she does. But, when she suddenly has Sam showing her just how insanely powerful he can be, Seline realizes that she is in way, way over her head. And the emotions slamming through her? She definitely didn’t count on those. Falling for someone like Sam was never on her agenda. But now her heart is involved, and when Sam learns that she intended to betray him…It may be more than just her heart that is in jeopardy.
Sam never forgives. He never forgets. His punishment will be the perfect sin.
ANGEL BETRAYED was originally released by Kensington in July of 2012. The book features a dangerously powerful hero who loves playing with fire and wreaking havoc on the world around him. He adores being bad, but when he meets Seline…she may just be the greatest sin of his very long life. Obsession, lust, and paranormal danger are waiting for you.

Well once again, Ms Eden has done it again and has proven to me that she is one of my most favorite authors, if not my favorite. If I could give a rating of 7 stars, I would, because she certainly deserves more than a 5-star rating on this book. She either writes some good books and then at times, she writes some fantastic books and Angel Betrayed is just one of them. The Hero Sam is the type of hero I love. He is the best of the best to which no one can compare. He is handsome and very sexy...

More like 4.5 stars I was so happy that Netgalley had this book before it's release date. I think I screamed like a little girl when I got it. I love Cynthia Eden's books. =) Unfortunately, it took me longer to read it due to other things in life that took precedence. Boo! Let's just say this Book Mama was not very happy to put \"Angel Betrayed\" off for awhile to do college homework. Grr! Don't these professors know I need my Romance books to keep me sane? Geez! I've been counting down the...

This is the second book in the series and it’s great. It has so many twists and turns with bad guys being good guys and vice versa that you just have to hold on and read to the end. Highly recommend! )

I knew Sam's story would be good, but not this good. The depth and levels of story was so much more than expected....in a good way! Sam was a bad boy but had a heart and much more of a story. The emotion and sexual tension between the two characters was powerful and so good. Seline's feelings are ones most can identify with and the author packaged them up with complexity. Their self doubt only added to the connection as a reader. Only two books have made me cry with the paranormal story lines...

Not a bad book. A little slow at times but I liked it overall. I thought the hellhound was pretty cool )
