For four hundred years, Hell crafted me into a savage beast.Tortured. Beaten. Broken. Scarred.I suffered until I discovered the worst pain in existence…Heaven stole my angel from me.I was a man possessed when my ship landed on Welsh shores. All I ever loved was the sea, but when Olivia’s gold hair shone like an angel on land, my new love took over my whole being. I knew the second I saw her, … over my whole being. I knew the second I saw her, she was mine. I gave up everything to buy her dowry and claim her for my own. Of course, I happily took payments on her love in advance.
Until the church decided I was better fit for the noose.
I was betrayed, yet I was the one who found myself in the ninth circle of Hell, the ring for betrayers. I was part of those meant to suffer the worst, right next to Cain, Judas, and the first of them all, Lucifer.
But no one keeps me down, and no one takes what’s mine.
I proved myself the strongest, fiercest, and cruelest, and rose through the ranks of demons. And when I found out the secret they’ve been keeping from me, I took my newfound power and escaped Hell.
My angel is up in those clouds, and I’m heading straight to Heaven.
When I bust through those gates, I’m taking her back. No angel or demon’s going to stand in my way from getting what I’m owed.
Hell hath no fury like a man obsessed.

Maxim’s only love was the sea; that is, until he saw Olivia in Wales while there having repairs made to their ship. He knew she was his one and only the minute he saw her, so when it was time to depart he wanted her to go with him. Unfortunately, she was her mother’s only child with no father there and her dowry was set high. Maxim left his ship taking any and all jobs he could find to stay close to Olivia saving all but small amounts to feed himself to pay her mother the dowry she required. Each time he came closer to reaching his goal more people from the church and village came to him trying to make him leave and forget her. Maxim was adamant, he loved her and wasn’t leaving. Time after time the church elders and village tried without any luck until they finally a mob accosted him, dragging him away from Olivia and made him stand trial on unwarranted blasphemy charges and lechery. Immediately found guilty, Maxim was sentenced to death by hanging while Olivia watched. In her grief, Olivia couldn’t understand why the village and church elders would do such a thing. Her grief so severe she flung herself off the highest cliff in order to go to Hell and be with Maxim. Four hundred years they were separated. Maxim in the ninth circle of Hell remembering and suffering daily while Olivia was in Heaven comfortably numb with no emotions and only a vague feeling of want.

ONE TURBOCHARGED TREAT!!!
OMG! Talk about spinning out of control. A whirlwind of circumstances and mishaps that keep you flipping page after page. One rollercoaster ride with a swirling myriad of emotions bursting to life flawlessly. One sizzling storyline and delectable plot weave this bad boy together beautifully. The characters were realistic with personalities and depth that drew you in. Sparks fly as suspense and intrigue ensues in epic proportions. All the drama, action packed, heart pounding, hard hitting delight that force all the pieces together for one wild adventure. The scenes were so vividly detailed and descriptive that it gives the illusion you were right there in the middle of ground zero with them. Remarkable job Elly, thanks for sharing this little gem with us.

This was a quick dirty read but I enjoyed it. The characters were intense and you can feel their passion burning through the pages. I loved the demon/angel dynamic of the story. It was shorter then I thought it would be but still a great book regardless

This is different it’s cute but I give it 4 stars with I hate to do is because it didn’t really hold my attention . Sorry.
True love…
They say true love last forever. If that’s true, then the four hundred years Maxim has loved Olivia is just the start. This is the first story I have read by this author so I wasn’t sure what to expect. The premise and story-line are truly unique and kept me turning the page.
