review 1: Angels seem to be a topic that many people are really getting into reading about in the paranormal genre. Of course with angels comes their counterpart, demons. This book is full of both of them, but the primary focus is a love triangle of two angels and a human. Ilisha thought she was simply getting on train to go help her mother with her grandmother's funeral, but life has a funny way of not working the way we expect. When the train she is on crashes and she somehow survives, she finds that everything she once knew has changed. She discovers a world where everyone has a guardian angel, but those angels can abandon you if you don't live up to their standards. Her angel has been deeply in love with her her entire existence and knows exactly what to say to win her heart. Y... moreou would expect that from someone that has watched you your entire life. Being that she had never met Bram, her guardian, before, she had no idea what lies he might be telling her or what information he simply was leaving out. Her world turns even more crazy when Damon, another angel shows up to lay his claim on her. While trying to sort out her feelings for these two gorgeous men, she finds that a people are out to kill her. How can life get any more complicated? Well, it does. You'll have to read just to see exactly how crazy it really gets. I liked this story. I like some of Shadow Stephens's other books more, but she is a wonderful author and worth following.Read more reviews at Identity Discovery Blog.
review 2: Broken Butterflies is the first book in the same titled series by Shadow Stephens. I'm a huge fan of her work, and have read everything she's written. In the PNR world she's brilliant and brings the stories to life. She is, at the time of this post, currently touring the second book in the series. Be sure to keep a look out for the review in a few days.This story introduces us to Ilisha Morrison who at first appears as an ordinary human, facing the death of her grandmother. On her trip home for the funeral, she meets Bram her Guardian Angel. From here her whole world gets turned upside down in a flurry of love, revenge, and deceit.Characters:I loved them all, even those who probably didn't deserve it. They're real in a sense that they love, fear, and cry like us, but at the same time the intensity is on par with greatness.World:This took place on Earth which is quite easy to replicate in the sense of believability. However, since Angels are considered paranormal, I found their abilities and hierarchy well explained and implemented.Overall thoughts:Shadow Stephens writes for adults, but her messages are pure. This series is suitable for adults, due to a heft amount of sexual scenes (very tastefully written). I'd recommend Broken Butterflies to anyone who loves Angelic PNR. less

This book is like Twilight except with angels and demons. Not what I expected.

Not terribly boring but it read like a rough draft.
