Swords & Stilettos

Enlighten Series, Book 1

By: Kristin D. Van Risseghem

Narrated by: Sofia Willingham

She doesn’t remember adding Armageddon to her birthday wish list....

The day Zoe turns eighteen, the gates of hell will open and Satan will escape his prison - unless Zoe can stop him.

Her plans to party with her friends and ogle cute guys are sidelined when her bestie reveals he's a Guardian Angel.

And the boy she’s been secretly crushing on? He’s a Nephilim. Both were sent to protect her from the army of demons dispatched to kill her.

The normal life Zoe loved is destroyed by an ancient prophecy that declares she will be the one to unite Angels, Nephilim, Fairies and Werewolves in an epic battle against evil.

Now, it’s time for Zoe to blow out the candles and make a wish, because if she can’t learn to control her new found talents, there will be Hell to pay....

Great New YA/Teen Fantasy Romance

This is a fun YA/Teen Fantasy! This audiobook has action, suspense, romance, Angels, Nephilims, fairies, and werewolves.

Narration was good and brought the story to life.

I enjoyed listening to this audiobook and getting to know Chloe. One minute she is a normal teen and the next the world she knows collapses and she finds herself learning that not all is what it seems.

I’m looking forward to book 2! I’ll have to get it as soon as it comes out! This is one of my favorite genres and I throughly enjoyed the characters and story line.

Promising beginning

Any additional comments?

This book was given to me for free at my request and I provided this voluntary review.

This book caught my eye in the Audiobookboom mailing I got and decided to give it a read.

The author used some themes common to a lot of YA type books — teenage girl, high school angst, love triangle. Not a negative really, but merely the setting.

The story ended up mixing angels with demons, fairies, and werewolves with some twists around the main character that I found interesting to the point I didn’t want to put the book down. I look forward to reading the next in the series (on my own dime) to see what happens next!

Great YA listen

Gripping story and intriguing characters, this book had me hooked from the start. Great narrator too. I received a free review copy of this audiobook at my request and I have voluntarily left this review.

good book

this book was pretty good. a lot better then I thought it would be. I am look forward to the next one. narrator did a good job as well.

A little slow but it picks up pace.

Zoe is a high school student just trying to finish her last year in school. She has a best friend Kieran who is a hottie by her side when they both stumble upon a demon and her hottie friend fights him off. Soon after life as Zoe knew it changes forever and she has to face these demons as well as a prophecy.

I will say that the story was very slow at the beginning but once it picked up pace it was very good and I enjoyed it. Will be continuing this series to see what happens next.

The narrator was okay. I had to speed up the pace to 2.0 to get by to listen to her. Not one of my favorites narrator.
