Protected in Darkness

Misplaced Halos, Book 1

By: Nicole Edwards

Narrated by: Rich Miller

Heaven refers to them as Misplaced Halos. Humans don’t even know they exist. This faction of celestial warriors was sent here under the cover of darkness to protect humanity from Lucifer’s demons. In return for their servitude, these warriors expect only one thing: the eternal love they were promised, what angels refer to as an amsouelot.

The first of his kind, Obsidian has spent the past 1,500 years fighting alongside his brothers, protecting humans from Lucifer’s demons, all while keeping to the shadows. Their mission is simple. Right up until it isn’t. The day Obsidian learns of a traitor in Heaven is the day everything changes. The entire reason for his existence is put on hold because there’s a new assignment: find the female whose soul belongs to his and protect her, no matter the cost.

Penelope Calazans spends her days sleeping and her nights serving free drinks to the gamblers looking to win big in Sin City. It’s not a glamorous life, perhaps a tad lonely, but she’s content. Or she thought she was. Then he appears. The mystery man who would turn out not to be a man at all but rather an angel. The angel who would turn Penelope's mundane life upside down, revealing what really lurks in the dark.

Not only do they have to battle the demons looking to possess their souls, but Obsidian and Penelope must overcome the obstacles that come with falling in love. In the end, an angel and a human must make the ultimate sacrifice, all in the name of a love everlasting.

Good Audio from a new to me author

Nicole Edwards is a new to me author. I've listened to a few books narrated by Rich Miller and he is a very talented narrator with a smooth and soothing voice. This one was monotonous to me, the story was good and narration done right but I think it would have benefited from being a dual narration. For me, it is hard to listen to an almost 13 hour book with the same narrator in 3rd person. Rich did a great job and the story was good, but it was just really long. I enjoyed the characters and the twists and turns. Overall, a good listen.

New romance series with plenty of hotness

This is the first book of the series. Nicole does a good job of building the basis for the series. For her first run of a paranormal it is good, but there are a few things that I noticed. She seemed to incorporate her favorite parts from other paranormal books into hers. In the beginning I was unsure of how well I would like the book, BUT the further I read the better the book got and started to pull you in. I look forward to watch her gain momentum in this style of writing. Ready for her to bring on the next.

Awesome start to a new series

I love Nicole Edwards books..can't wait for the next book in this series!! This one was a perfect start.

Interesting

The author makes the flow of the book intriguing. The narrator is easy to listen to. I found this book interesting on the way you become a fated mate to an angel. #AudiobookObsession

This was good!!

With Black Dagger Brotherhood similarities, this book about warrior angels caught my attention. This story of how the warriors search for their soulmates was interesting and I found myself drawn to these characters.

Penelope’s life changes very quickly and she falls fast. There’s a lot going on in this.. and I. Any wait to see who’s next!

Rich Miller’s voice is perfect for these brothers.
