The Human Side

by Heaven Liegh Eldeen

[Cocktails and Books]

I didn't read the first book in this series, so I wasn't familiar with the characters or what lead to this book. Luckily, the storyline was pretty easy to pick up and follow.

Ra makes a deal with his father which allows him to come back to earth to fight for the woman he loves. If he can win it, he'll return to his full angel rank in heaven and get to keep his girl. If he loses, he must forever stay on earth as a human. The gist of the storyline has the potential to be great, especially since the woman Ra loves doesn't remember him. But I found myself not really connecting with the characters. Given everything that Ra and Etta were going through, I expected the story to be full of emotional drama that had me craving their HEA. Unfortunately, I never got that. Maybe if the story was longer than 140 pages, it would have given the author more time to play the emotional part of the story out. But instead I was left wanting more and not really caring if Ra and Etta truly got their HEA.
