12 Practical Steps to Making Your Marriage Heaven on Earth: No Matter Your Current Situation, Good, Bad, or Ugly; Your Marriage Can Be Better

by Christi Barth
Liss Jemison’s life was once blissfully ordinary, but that was before demons invaded her reality. Now, she is the lone powerless human caught in a celestial war between Heaven, Hell, and the impending awakening of the Titans. As the apocalypse looms, she finds herself under the constant, brooding protection of Zavier Carranza, a fierce Nephilim warrior who is as infuriating as he is devastatingly gorgeous.
The forced-proximity nature of their arrangement is a powder keg of tension. Zavier is tasked with keeping Liss safe from the darkness he inadvertently brought into her life, but the lines between duty and desire are blurring rapidly. Every moment spent together is a battle against their growing attraction, even as they navigate a landscape where one wrong move could trigger the end of the world.
This gripping paranormal romance masterfully balances high-stakes supernatural action with the sharp, crackling banter of two people who were never meant to fall in love. As they race to prevent a catastrophe, Liss begins to suspect that her humanity might be a far greater weapon than anyone anticipated. Perfect for readers who enjoy intense stakes and forbidden romance, this story proves that even in the face of evil, love is the ultimate miracle.

Not Always an Angel was a cute paranormal romance read. The primary mythos is the battle between angles and demons and the end of the world from the releasing of the Titans but more magical and fantasy aspects are revealed as the tale evolves. The main characters are well developed and the banter and tension is on point. The diverse cast is fun and keeps the story engaging. While this can be read as a standalone, I feel I would have connected to the story more and felt a little more depth had I...

I loved the series Lucifer. I must have watched all the seasons multiple times. Christi Barth’s Not Always An Angel is deemed to be similar to the Lucifer show, and that piqued my interest. It is the third book in an interconnected series. As a non-book-number follower, I was fine reading Book 3 first. I enjoyed the charm and the lightheartedness of Not Always An Angel. Zavier’s character was well-written. I liked his personality and how protective he was with Liss—perfectly matched up with her...
