Rise from the Flames by Ginna Moran, Elie Waters

5.0

I wanted more of this book, of these characters, of all of it!! Rise From the Flames is good as a standalone, but I could just imagine this book as a series. I'd devour it. I want more!! LOL! An angel gets "kicked" out of Heaven and sent to the mortal plane. She's not supposed to be here, so what's going on? Well, upon "landing" she crosses paths with a demon and then two hunters are quick to follow. Sounds like a giant ball of chaos ready to make a mess - and that's exactly what happens!
These characters, aside from River, would so much fun to read and engage with. River was probably my least favorite because of his attitude, but we always have to have that one guy who insists on being a jerk, right? Well, he's that token guy. He may or may not mellow out in the book, but he's really one of those ones who insists on irritating my soul. LOL!
Now, I had mixed feelings when it came to Riella, but she's a really good character all-in-all. She's a bit all over the place, and I feel that in some moments she's a bit naive, but she does start to pull herself together and this book is really good.
I'm rating this book 4.5 out 5 stars. I loved so much about this book. A couple of the characters were a bit all over the place, but it's really good. I would have loved if this book had been turned into a series, but maybe we'll get more of these characters another day. A girl can hope right? LOL!
