~**~ ARC Review: Lust Hate Love (Fallen Angel #4) by Ella Frank & Brooke Blaine ~**~


***5 ‘Let Me Be the One For You’ Stars***

These characters.

This book.

Hell, this series…

I’m sitting her all kinds of hopped up on happy because I freakin’ adored this book. I was totally invested in Killian and Levi from the start and loved every moment of the sweet, frustrating, smexy and swoon worthy journey and couldn’t have asked for more. Ok. That last part is a lie. I want more because I’m a greedy biyatch and really just want to spend a lot more time with these characters BUT as far as getting to that HEA...I’m a happy girl.

Killian and Levi. I adored Killian from the beginning. He may be the ‘mom’ of the group, ensuring that his wilder, more impulsive band mate don’t go too crazy, but he’s got this quiet confidence that draws you in and the kind of innate charm that will leave you swooning. And then there is Levi. I LOVED how comfortable he was in his own skin. He owned everything he was and I loved how he commanded everyone’s attention without breaking a sweat.

As for their journey to their HEA, calling it a cat and mouse game is the perfect way to describe it, and regardless of the frustration I was put through because of it, it was a lot of fun. I loved their bantering, the chemistry between them was intense and the genuine affection they had for each other was all kinds of heart melting. Unfortunately there were bumps in the road, and they were both equally responsible for them, but I loved how they finally got their shit together ~ with a little help from those who love them most~ and couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out for them.

I’m a #fangirl of both of these authors, whether they are collaborating or doing solo projects, because they make it so easy to get lost in the world and the unique characters they create and I end up wanting more time with them. And this book just reinforced that feeling. I loved getting to know Kill and Levi better, but I also loved hanging out with Viper, Halo, Slade, Jagger and Imogen and just seeing how their relationships have evolved and how much of a family they all are. This is, for all intents and purposes, the last of the series, and it makes me just a tinsy bit sad, but considering how both of these authors tend to have the majority of their books loosely connected to each other, I have no doubt this crazy crew will be mentioned in some way or form in upcoming books.

Note: This book can be read as a stand-alone, but I honestly believe it will be a lot more fun for you if you start at the beginning with Halo so you can truly appreciate these characters and the relationships they have with one another.

As the sexy, charismatic bassist for world-famous rock band Fallen Angel, whatever Killian Michaels wants, Killian Michaels gets.

Or at least that was the case until the band’s gorgeous new manager, Levi Walker, shot him down after a blistering first kiss.

For Levi, managing these five guys is the opportunity of a lifetime, and he’s not about to let a case of sexual desire get in his way. He’s efficient, professional, and plays by the book. But tension simmers beneath Levi’s cool exterior every time Killian’s near, and soon enough the passion boils over, consuming them both.

As the Corruption tour takes them from country to country, a heated game of cat and mouse ensues. Levi tries to deny the irresistible pull of Killian’s seductive nature, but with an attraction as strong as theirs, it’s only a matter of time before the lust-filled hate turns to love.

LUST. HATE. LOVE. is the fourth book of the Fallen Angel Series and follows a new couple in the band. It can be read as a standalone or following ANGEL.

About Brooke Blaine:
You could say Brooke Blaine was a book-a-holic from the time she knew how to read; she used to tell her mother that curling up with one at 4 a.m. before elementary school was her ‘quiet time.’ Not much has changed except for the espresso I.V. pump she now carries around and the size of her onesie pajamas.

She is the author of Flash Point, a romantic suspense standalone, as well as the co-author of the erotic series, A Desperate Man, with Ella Frank. The latter has scarred her conservative southern family for life, bless their hearts. Licked, a romantic comedy, will be released November 11th, 2015 and is the first in the L.A. Liaisons series.

If you’d like to get in touch with her, she’s easy to find - just keep an ear out for the Rick Astley ringtone that’s dominated her cell phone for ten years.
