About HADES:A fallen angel with a mean streak and a mohawk, Hades has spent thousands of years serving as Jailor of the Underworld. The souls he guards are as evil as they come, but few dare to cross him. All of that changes when a sexy fallen angel infiltrates his prison and unintentionally starts a riot. It’s easy enough to quell an uprising, but for the first time, Hades is torn between delivering justice — or bestowing mercy — on the beautiful female who could be his salvation…or his undoing.
Thanks to her unwitting participation in another angel’s plot to start Armageddon, Cataclysm was kicked out of Heaven and is now a fallen angel in service of Hades’s boss, Azagoth. All she wants is to redeem herself and get back where she belongs. But when she gets trapped in Hades’s prison domain with only the cocky but irresistible Hades to help her, Cat finds that where she belongs might be in the place she least expected…
Excerpt:
“And what does good
and evil feel like?” he rasped. “On your skin, I mean?”
“I’ll show you.” She
moved toward him, every step popping out her hips and making her breasts bounce
in a smooth, seductive rhythm. His mouth went dry again, but then it began to
water as she reached out and placed her palm in the center of his chest.
Very slowly, she
dragged her hand along the contours of his pecs, her touch so featherlike that
he barely felt it, and yet, he was hyper-aware of every move her hand made,
every centimeter of skin her palm passed over.
“Goodness and
light,” she said softly, “is like bathing in Champagne. It’s tingly and
effervescent. It wakes you up even as it relaxes you.”
“Like sex,” he
murmured. “With someone you like.”
“With someone you
like?” She blinked. “Why would you have sex with someone you didn’t
like?”
A rumbling purr
vibrated his chest. “Baby, it’s like fighting, but with orgasms.”
“And less blood, I
suppose.”
“Not if you’re doing
it right.” He waggled his brows, and she rolled her eyes. “So what does evil
feel like to you? If good feels good, then does evil feel bad?”
“That’s the funny
thing.” She inched closer, adding another palm to his chest, and he gripped the
cup so hard he heard it crack. More. He needed more. And damn her for making
him crave it when he’d been perfectly fine being alone for all these years. “It’s
as seductive as good, but in a different way.” She shivered delicately. “It’s
hot. If good is like bathing in Champagne, evil is like bathing in whiskey.
There’s a burn, but it’s almost always a lovely burn.”
Yeah, he felt that
lovely burn where she was touching him. As she talked, it spread across his
chest and into his abdomen, then lower, to his pelvis and groin. Everything
tightened and grew feverish with lust.
“Seems to me,” he
said in a humiliatingly rough voice, “that bumping up against evil would be an
incredible temptation for angels like you.”
“It is,” she purred.
“Which is why we aren’t allowed to leave Heaven except under certain
circumstances, and even then, we must have an escort. It’s one of the reasons I
know I can’t ever enter Sheoul. To become a True Fallen would be to have my
full powers of detection restored, and I’d be skewed toward evil. The few
Seraphim who have become fallen angels are like drug addicts, seeking out the
most evil beings they can find, to serve them, to just be near them.”
He wondered how
having a Seraphim fallen angel as a warden in the Inner Sanctum would play out.
Then Cat dragged her palms down his chest to his abs, and he forgot all about
everything except what was happening right now, right here in his home.
I started reading Larisaa Ione in 2007 and never looked
back. I love the Demonica series and this really makes me want to go back to
book one and start all over!
HADES left me feeling the same because this novella was
packed full of awesomeness in it’s smaller package.
Cat found a strength she didn’t know she possessed and Hades
began feeling things that he knew he shouldn’t. Since he was under Azagoth’s
mercy, or lack thereof, Hades knew Cat had to be left alone or he was going to
suffer the most imaginable under Azagoth’s hand. Would it even be worth it?
Larissa has always known how to keep my attention and I love
that. You feel what she is writing and her descriptions allow me to see
everything. After I’ve read one of her books, I actually feel as though I’ve
seen the movie. That’s what I love. And, I can’t wait to see what she gives is
next!!
