Rapture: A Novel of the Fallen Angels (Fallen Angels, #4)

by J. R. Ward

Mels Carmichael, reporter for the Caldwell Courier Journal, gets the shock of her life when a man stumbles in front of her car outside the local cemetery. After the accident, his amnesia is just the kind of mystery she likes to solve, but she soon discovers they're over their heads with his past. Over their heads with passion, too ...As shadows walk the line between reality and another realm, and her lover's memory begins to come back, the two of them learn that nothing is truly dead and buried. Especially when you're trapped in a no-holds-barred war between angels and demons. With a soul on the line, and Mels's heart at risk, what in heaven - or in hell - will it take to save them both?

#COYER Scavenger Hunt item # 2: Read a book with a cover that is at least 51% blue (1 point)

Rapture showed a different side of Jim Heron, and it had some interesting developments when it came to the sides of 'good' and 'bad', as well as a character I didn't think we'd ever see again.

This and all my other reviews are originally posted on my blog (un)Conventional Bookviews

I think this book is slower than the previous FA books. I didn't like it as much. I think it is because I didn't like Matthias at the beginning of the book and still don't like him after I finished. I just don't think someone can make that big of a life change because of one woman. Yes, his time in "hell" helped change him too, but I am just not a believer that it only takes a good woman to fix such an F'ed up man.

You do see more of the BDB story crossing over here (more than in the first book). Mels is researching a story of all the missing boys, which can only be boys joining The Omega. I'm still trying to figure out whose house is mentioned at the end of this book. I know it belongs to someone from the BDB series. If we were told (or hinted strongly), I missed it.
