Dark Feathers
By: Natalina Reis
5 out of 5 stars
The story Dark Feathers is an amazing book to read. It will pull you in from the very beginning and doesn’t let you go until you have read the final page. I loved the characters of Phoenix and Joan. What does the future hold for them? Read this book to find out. Phoenix and Joan are characters that I grew to care about with each chapter that I read. There are also others that I enjoyed their characters and how they interact with the main ones. The story has heartbreaking and heartwarming moments. It has romantic moments that will have your heart being stolen away. This is a book I would highly recommend.
Wondrous! A beautifully crafted romance that touched my heart. I absolutely loved the characters and really enjoyed the story I couldn’t put it down! I can’t wait to read more about this series and more by the author.

5-Stars
Dark Feathers by Natalina Reis was a wonderful 5-star, Fantasy, Romance read. I absolutely loved this novel. I was hooked from the beginning and could not put this book down. Jo and Nix were excellent characters to follow as the main characters of the story. The author did wonderful with both of their development and you can see their personalities mature as the story progresses. I also enjoyed how descriptive the author was with each setting. I found that it was easy to visualize where scenes would take place because of that.
This novel is the second in this series but can be read as a standalone. It would be a better fit for those of more mature minds possibly 16+ in age due to sexual content and language. It is easy to follow and creative. I highly recommend it!
I give Dark Feathers by Natalina Reis, 5 stars.
Phoenix is a dark angel minion who has been at the mercy of his master’s torture for so long, that’s all he remembers. While he is waiting in earth to bring another soul to his master, a human comes by and she can see him. This is unheard of and his master wants him to find out more about this woman. So he is sent to earth to see if she is a threat. He is able to insert himself into her life and the more he is with her, the more he feels things he thought he never would. He feels more and more that maybe she is someone he wants to be with, be he can’t. Can he? What would the cost be? When her life is in danger, he finds out just what he really will do for this woman.
As much as she loves him, Joan just wants to live a life away from her brother and have a life of her own. So she moves to another town and gets a place of her own. Not quite able to pull it all off on her own, she advertises for a roommate. The man who answers seems like the perfect candidate, although it’s obvious to her that he has secrets. But he is so much better than the others, and he is quite good looking to top it all off. He quickly find a spot in her heart, but how will she feel when she learns the real reason he was sent hear? Can she trust him?
If you have read Lavender Fields by this author, you may remember Joan. It has been quite a while since I read it, and I didn’t not put the connection together at first. Once I did, I was so excited because I knew I would love this whole book! The characters are spectacular, Joan and Phoenix make wonderful primary characters — relatable and each struggle with their own problems. The secondary characters just add more flavor. Some we may remember as well a some news ones to add to the mix. Not to mention the story itself — the feelings Phoenix and Joan have for each other is there pretty quickly. But so is there is also suspense thrown in involving both Joan and Phoenix. I could not wait to finish this book, it was so good!
This is a wonderful paranormal romance and I highly recommend this book.

Five Stars
Dark Feathers is a paranormal romance by Natalina Reis. This is one of the best books I have read by Natalina. It had me hooked from the very first page and I couldn’t put it down until the last. I would highly recommend that you read Lavender Fields because there are recurring characters from that book in this masterpiece. They are both five star reads. This book features Phoenix who is a dark angel sent to spy on Joan, and Joan is looking for a roommate, not love. Somehow, when they meet emotions start churning and they find themselves trying to win the right to live and love each other. This book will take you on a roller coaster ride that you won’t want to get off. If you love paranormal or just a great romance, this is the book for you.

5 stars
I was immediately sucked into this book and after about 2 chapters, i realized everyone seemed familiar and then it clicked (I was slow on the uptake) and this book follows the little sister from the book Lavender Fields. I don’t feel it is necessary to read that book to read and understand this one, but if you fall in love with this book, You’ll want that book too!
Joan, oh Joan and her potty mouth! She’s spunky and not afraid to tell you like it is and exactly what she expects to happen or how she feels.
Nix, oh what a guy. Poor thing was so lost yet knew something was amiss and until Joan, he had no idea things could or should be different.
My heart broke a couple times but in the end I was happy. Great book!
Dark Feathers is a novel by Natalia Reis. This is my second novel by this author.
Phoenix is a dark angel who fall asleep with the human he is supposed to keep tabs on. When he makes the decision to protect her, his boss sees her as a threat. To what lengths will he go to protect her?
I really enjoyed this novel. It reminds me a little of the other novel I read by this author.
I love stories where the male falls in love unexpected and has to find a way to protect them.
For anyone looking for a quick paranormal romance read, I recommend.
Dark Feathers by Natalina Reis is another wondrous tale by this talented author. This is probably my favourite by Natalina and that is saying something because I just loved the first one, Lavender Fields. Natalina has woven a magical story where I easily got swept away with the characters that I fell in love with in the previous book. It’s been two years since Lavender Fields, but I am glad we have finally gotten here. Absolutely beautiful Natalina. Don’t forget the tissues. I love me some angels. I won’t share the story as I want you to truly experience it all by yourself.
I love everything about this book. Characters are well written and developed. Some of the characters we met in the first book but the addition of Phoenix added great depth to the story.
Joan, our female lead is so phenomenally written. Love her foul mouth. But, she’s sweet, kind, loving but loyal to the end. Fights tooth and nail for the ones she loves.
This is such a delightful mix of light and dark. Angels, humans. In any area of life, be it angel or human, there is light and dark. Good and bad.
Read this story. You’ll love it as much as I did.
Dark Feathers is a paranormal romance by Natalina Reis. It is a standalone novel, set in the same world as her book Lavender Fields with many characters appearing from the earlier book. It follows Phoenix, a dark angel sent to spy on Joan, a young woman who could see him when he was supposed to be invisible to humans. Joan’s search for a roommate provides the perfect opportunity for Phoenix to keep an eye on her, and (of course) fall in love.
Reis has a well-established system of angels, and Lavender Fields has already given us plenty of insight into the trouble they can get into. Although much of the world-building has been done before, Phoenix being a dark angel gives Reis a chance to explore more of the system and remind or introduce readers to the world from a different perspective.
Joan is a caring, loveable character. Her passion for baking speaks of her commitment to making others happy, and she is quick to note Phoenix’s favourite type of cookies. Phoenix is at times broody and reclusive, and Joan works hard to cheer him up and bring him out of his shell. As someone whose life experience so far has consisted almost entirely of pain and suffering, including sexual abuse, the positive and loving relationship does wonders for Phoenix, who reciprocates by setting out to protect Joan regardless of the cost.
This is an enjoyable page-turner of a book – definitely five stars! I would recommend it to fans of angel romances (and, let’s face it, who doesn’t enjoy a good angel romance?). You can definitely enjoy this book without having read Lavender Fields, but for me it was really great seeing how Caleb and Sky were getting on.
A great read about darkness. Phoenix is a dark angel. One night when collecting a soul, a woman sees him and speaks to him, things which have never happened before. His boss Asmodeus thinks it is a threat and orders Phoenix to follow her. Phoenix accidently ends up being her roommate and discovers new experiences and finds himself. Can he sirll follow orders or is he something more than a minion?
A great read. Well developed plot with twists and turns that I just couldn’t put down. Well developed characters like Joan stubborn and sarcastic but caring underneath or Phoenix trying to find himself but also follow orders.
Great cast of supporting characters like the bubbly brother Caleb or the loving Sky. A great villain in Asomedeus cold and cruel and manipulative done just right.
I loved the visual detial throughout the novel like the the bay with its blue waters and clear sky with the boats and seagulls for a sense of calm for both Phoenix and the reader, beautifully written. Or with the coolies with their tastes and smells sosl vivid its as if you’re actually there as you experience new things with Phoenix, wonderfully written.
A great example of world building with fantatsical beings living alongside humanity with their own rules and laws and societies. I loved the idea of the dark angels, with evil creatures not being demons for a change was fresh and exciting. Phoenix’s journey of finding himself and his insecurities was relatable and emotive. The switch of perspectives worked well to display both sides of the story and was easy to follow with names in chapter titles. Fast paced action and high stakes in a fantasy story made for a captivating read. Overall a great read and I would give it five stars.
Dark Feathers by Natalina Reis is a fantastic book that really will have you gripped. For me this book is the perfect mix of fantasy and romance.
I absolutely loved Phoenix. For me he made this book what it was. It was so easy to connect with him as a character even though he is an angel.
This author is always great at creating lasting and interesting books but this one definitely has to be my favourite one so far. As soon as I started reading I couldn’t stop and I ended up reading this book all in one sitting. The book was well written and developed. This is yet another amazing read by this author.
Dark Feathers is another incredible read from Natalina Reis, this is an epic Romantic Suspenseful Fantasy read that has you completely and utterly captivated, to the point I never wanted the read to end! I do have a love for fallen angel reads, and I had a series of fallen angel books that I absolutely adored, I can now honestly say, this book is now up there with them!
It had everything and more that I need from a fantasy read, it has some action, some adventure with a twist of suspense and then its made even better by it being a romance. I absolutely loved Phoenix & Joan they were real, relatable and lovable and I couldn’t help but be totally captivated by their journey/story.
Natalina Reis definitely has a way with words, she continues to captivate the reader with her incredible storyline and amazing characters. I want more of these characters, more of Phoenix and Joan’s story, it is a book not to be missed! This is an author not to be missed!

I just finished reading my new favourite book from Natalina Reis. I know I tend to say ‘favourite’ every time she releases a new book- but this story has everything you could want from a great paranormal romance. Fantastic characters, chemistry, secrets, suspense, a little danger, drama, and a wonderfully captivating storyline. I couldn’t love it more than I did. Ms. Reis met all my expectations, and more! Colour me hooked!
Dark Feathers weaves a wonderful tale of a dark angel named Phoenix who falls in love with a human, Joan. He was sent on a mission, but never expected to be so drawn to the woman he was meant to keep tabs on. But the higher power he answers to has Joan firmly in their sights- and things won’t end well for her unless Xander intervenes. Placing himself in harm’s way will be worth it if it means keeping her safe. What happens when everything is said and done? Grab a copy and discover all the intriguing details for yourself- you are bound to love it as much as I have.
As I have said several times before, I have loved every word of this fantastic story, and now I can’t wait to see what Ms. Reis has in store for us next!
Thank you, Ms Reis!
Romance, suspense, fantasy – this book has it all. I am so thankful this author and book found me. Reis is becoming a go to author for me and this latest book was another wonderful escape for me. I loved every moment with these characters and devoured every page. Simply a delight!
Have you ever picked up a book by a favorite author only to realize that your dreams have come true? That happened to me today. I picked up DARK FEATHERS and something felt a little familiar about it. I recognized 2 characters in the first chapter so looked back over this author’s catalog. Yup, in July 2017 I read LAVENDER FIELDS and in my review hoped Joan’s story would be told one day. Well after fast clapping and and doing a happy dance, I went back to reading.
“Oh, be still, my naughty bits.” Joan thinks that of Nix and Phoenix thinks that of chocolate chip cookies. Haha. I honestly think she and I would be friends if she were my neighbor.
I cannot recommend this book enough. I would recommend reading Lavender Fields also. SUCH GOOD AND ORIGINAL STORIES. Humor and angst and burning looks and best friends.
5 stars for Lavender Fields and 5 stars for Dark Feathers equals 10 stars!!!!
Dark Feathers by Natalina Reis. I was very interested when I read the description and I’m so glad I picked this book up. Most of my reading time I have to really be in the mood for a fantasy type story but I fell right into story with such ease I was so surprised when I was done because I read it so fast. I was definitely sad when the last page came. The characters truly draw you into their fascinating world. It’s well written and paced nicely never feeling rushed. This author knows how to capture readers and make them never want to come back to the real world. Five stars all the way!
I loved this book and it just might be my favorite. This author continues to create stories that are full of romance, suspense and fantasy. The characters are connectable and they made the story come alive and feel real. Joan and Phoenix, one is looking for a roommate and the other a dark angel. What they didn’t expect is to fall for each other. When the dark lord comes calling will Phoenix be able to protect her? Strong characters with great chemistry. I highly recommend this must read story.
