(Angelbound Lincoln #2)

Publication date: Feb 24th 2019
Genres: Paranormal, Fiction, Romance

When it comes to fighting, Prince Lincoln is the greatest demon killer in the history of his people, the thrax. Now Lincoln faces his hardest fight yet…and it’s not on a traditional battlefield.

The part-angel prince has fallen for a quasi-demon girl. Hard.

Trouble is, Lincoln’s people see anyone demonic as an enemy be hunted. Soon the girl who’s stolen Lincoln’s heart, a quasi-demon named Myla Lewis, becomes the number one target of Lincoln’s own warriors. It’s something the High Prince of the Thrax won’t stand for. At all.

No matter what, Lincoln will protect his Myla.

I receive an arc of this book in exchange of an honest review.

I could not believe it has been nearly 7 years since I first discovered and fell in love with Angelbound.
Amongst other dystopian and paranormal books that I loved, The whole Angelbound universe had played such a major part in my life in terms of turning me into a full-blown avid fiction reader (who wouldn’t even entertain the thought of ‘reading’ anything before) and then later finally starting up and developing my book blog. Other than earning the nostalgic points, I gotta say it felt so great to be able to delve back in to the universe.

I have always admired Christina Bauer’s skill in her world building and character development in each and every one of her books, and Lincoln did not exempt. I am completely in love with the sassy and badass Myla, and I can gladly say that I love Lincoln just as much.

I was quite concerned that the plot would feel overused after so many mini-series and prequels. My memory of reading the original Angelbound series was still quite fresh when I read the first instalment, Duty Bound, and it somehow tempered my feelings towards the book as it’s own. It had felt repetitive even though I did get to read it in Lincoln’s point of view for a chance. But now that my head is completely fresh and hungry for it, I enjoyed the shit out of it! From the well rounded and lovable characters to the exciting plot line, Lincoln is simply a major page-turner. I am definitely picking up the next book.
