I was given this book to read for an honest review from the group LOP and the author LG Castillo>

This book is by far so much better then the 1st one. We already know the characters so we got to enjoy the actual story! This book made me laugh, made me cry and was overall just really really good! There isn't all that much that I would change at all, maybe speed it up a little bit. Overall this book was very well laid out, was very well written and was a very good read.

Thank you for given me the opportunity to read and review this book!

I didn't fangirl out this time on L.G. Castillo but that doesn't mean I can't fangirl out right now. OMG!!!! LOVED LOVED LOVED THIS BOOK!!!! Reading a series is like hanging with old friends. I really didn't realize how much I missed all those crazy angels until the first sentence. I wouldn't wait to find out how Naomi and Lash were doing and what happened to Welita and Chuy. I also wanted to make sure Bear was ok, that crazy dog was a great addition to all the cast of characters in the first book.

Hmmm now were do I begin....

The story starts about a couple weeks after Naomi dies. She is now an Archangel. Lash and her live together in heaven. Naomi has been spending a lot of time training with Gabrielle. Lash is still very angry with Jeremy for killing Naomi and not saving her and Raphael (his father) for the secrets he has kept from them even though it was sort of a punishment (you learn more about that later in the book). Naomi really misses her family and she suddenly realizes Lucifer is up to his old tricks and she needs to stop him before her family and friends get hurt.

I was a little worried when I started that Naomi was with Jeremy who by the way is one of my book boyfriends. You only get a little glimpse of him in the first book but you get to enjoy him a bit more in this one. The chemistry between Naomi and Lash is still as intense as it was in Lash. The book has mild situations since they more or less hint to the act of sex but it's not down and dirty like other books. Honestly I enjoyed it better this way. The story is so wholesome I think it would take something away from it with too much hot and heavy ;) All of the characters are absolutely great and written beautifully. I found myself crying at one part at the end when Naomi is looking down from heaven. I still get all choked up thinking about it. I don't have a favorite character per say but Welita is written just the way you would think a grandmother should be written. I seriously wanted to hug her!

After the Fall is fantastic, I adored the first one and I have to say this one is just as amazing. L.G. Castillo is just a wonderful storyteller and this is a story I can't wait to read more about.

I gave these book 4/5 stars and I highly recommend the series, I can't wait to read Before the Fall to see how it all started.

I got this book from the author, free of cost, in exchange of an honest review from my side!

Firstly I would like to thank L.G Castillo, author of After the Fall, for giving me this wonderful opportunity of reading and reviewing this fantastic book.

I really fell in love with it and drooled over it like a dork while I read about my new crush. Guess who is that? Of course it's LASH, guys! Who else can it be? Well the author didn't leave any option other than loving Lash and I'm sure all the girls out there who read this wonderful book will agree with me.

After the first book I really expected a lot from the second book and I'm really happy to say that the author didn't disappoint me at all rather she surprised me by exceeding my high expectations. I loved the twists ans turns that the story took in this sequel and I'm really waiting for the next book to come.

The emotional tension between the characters is made palpable and heart wrenching by the author and it really spiked my senses. I loved the character Uri too and loved the way the author developed the character.

For me Naomi stole the show, she's just awesome and all you boys out there are going to drool over her, I bet. I really enjoyed the eerie suspense that made me sit at the edge of the chair of four long hours while I kept on reading and reading, not even noticing that I was at the verge of falling down.

The fast-pace and remarkable writing style doubled the value of the book and really spiced the read keeping a firm grip on my interest and attention. I'll definitely recommend it to ya all and would bet that you guys will love it as much as I did.
