This is a hard one to review. I’m glad I waited until I read the third book before I reviewed this one. (To find out why, see my review for #3.) Cedric’s character takes a really dark turn here. While reading it, I was getting fairly angry at Aria. The things that she put up with from Cedric were classic abuse. Not just verbal, but emotional and threat of physical. He also removed her support base when he sent her parents back to the states. I was so thrilled that she left him. I worry when we present this type of male in a YA adult novel and show the girlfriend putting up with his abuse and making excuses for it. My concern is that young women will think this behavior is normal for a relationship when it is not normal or healthy. Yes, I know this is paranormal romance, not the real world. But kids are impressionable. So why the 4 stars if I was so upset by it? Obviously Ms. Santos wrote Cedric’s outrageous behavior to make the reader distance themselves from the idea of him being Aria’s perfect mate. She succeeded in spades.
Second book of 4 in a series. Aria must now learn how to use the wings she’s been given. Cedric continues to try to teach Aria what she needs to know as an angel..especially since she is a rare Red Angel. War looms yet it doesn’t feel right.
The characters learn more about themselves and create a richer tapestry for both the characters as well as for the reader. It does bog down in places, but it picks back up rather quickly. I was constantly being pulled to keep turning the page and see what happens next.

A Spectacular Continuation!!
This book did a fantastic job of picking up where book 1 left off. The character development continues to be amazing in this book as well. Angels, gargoyles, vampires, action, adventure, love, confused feelings and emotions, and insane tensions keep you going page after page! I can’t wait to see where things go in book 3!!

Archangel’s Fire by Anna Santos is the second book in The Cursed Angel Series. In this book, a young woman named Aria has become involved with an Angel Prince named Cedric. Cedric wants her to choose him as her mate and accept her angelic side and become the angelic queen to his king. But there is a problem, Aria has a previous mate named Phillippe who is the vampire king who is still in love with her but pushed her away because he wants what’s best for her. I loved reading this book because it is a compelling romance involving one young woman and two very different men who both want her to pick each of them as her mate. I was enthralled with the plot and the way the characters were written. I think that anyone who enjoys any type of paranormal romance will love this book as much as I do. Archangel’s Fire is a compelling tale of two men who are fighting over a woman’s love.
This is book 2 of the series. I love the characters and the storyline. I feel both are very well written. Looking forward to book 3. I recommend the series.

Archangel’s Fire is book two of The Cursed Angels series about Aria and her suitors. The characters are interesting, the story is well written with unexpected twists, drama, action, suspense and an ending that left me wanting more. I am looking forward to reading the next book in this series to find out what happens next.
Not sure what I really feel on this book. Brings a lot of the 1st book into it. The characters have to much drama. Will they ever come together or will they keep battling?

I am frankly angry at Anna Santos for once again leaving me hanging and therefore I refuse to give her five stars for what is otherwise an excellent YA suspense novel that can be finished off in a day,

Dark forces use the pretense of jealous love to further their own ends, and to bring things to the brink of war.
Aria loves both Cedric and Philippe, and has been rejected by each of them in different ways. Working together and being supportive of Aria might help to keep her from falling victim to depression and those who would turn her power to truly dark ends.
The battle rages on, fueled by hurts and failure to communicate.

Fantastic Story!
Book 2 of Archangel’s Fire of the “The Cursed Angel Series” was much better than Book 1 “Archangel’s Kiss”. The storyline drama between the main characters, Cedric, Aria, and Phillip continue. The supporting character’s storyline is increased in this book and you find out more about them. Jo and her drive to rescue Oliver are getting quite intriguing, as well as she and Camille finally force Cedric to tell Area everything he’s been holding back. Archangel’s Fire has action, suspense a twist you won’t see coming, romance and love. The ending is frustrating but interesting and funny. This is a wonderful addition to the “Cursed Angel” series and I can’t wait for book 3. This is definitely a must-read if you love paranormal tales, angels and vampires!

Aria was still tired as her new mate Cedric, an angel Prince, tried to wake her up. He told her she needed to practice flying now that her wings had come in – but she was afraid of heights! It was a matter of trusting both her own angel and him; she could do this, he assured her! She was concerned, though, that she was nothing like her angel who was impatient and believed that it was okay to kill, and it was okay to be an arrogant angel with a god complex.
Philippe’s Master, Josephine, came to talk to him about his gloomy demeanor since Aria left. He tried to blame it on other issues he was dealing with, such as the drug Clarity, business, competition, evil gargoyle scientists and such. But Josephine knew he loved Aria and she may have even been happier with Philippe than with Cedric. But she told him he had found someone who woke him up to life and made his heart feel – but he can’t have her and he needs to go do something useful and stop moping around! Jo suggested he ask Aria if she was now happy and, if so, move on. She didn’t see how life with an angel would be the “normal” life Philippe was trying to give her by staying away.
As inevitable tensions rise between the vampires and angels, it looks as if Philippe and Cedric need to work together to stop the distribution of the dangerous drug, Clarity. Can they put aside their antagonism for the good of the populace being affected? And is there any hope that Aria may reconsider her choice of mate?
This was an excellent piece of the overall story. The banter between Philippe and his maker, Jo, about his sulking was both full of love and hilariously funny! The author is wonderful with bringing her characters to life (no pun intended) and making them so real to the reader. The emotions are all out there, touching the reader and reminding us of the feelings the characters are experiencing. Very powerful stuff! I definitely recommend this series!
