Calm Assurance (Orlosian Warriors Bk. 1)

Two hearts, two different worlds, uncompromising love.

A straight-laced Nephilim-descendant and a human trouble-magnet?

When Asriel - Orlosian Warrior, descendant of Nephilim, law enforcer – is sent to guard Malina, a human with a penchant for drawing trouble like a tornado, she becomes his obsession.

With no hope of finding love in his dimension, he breaks the cardinal rule, leaving his home to protect her, but she has also drawn the attention of his enemies, and he is forced to face demons from his past. If Asriel chooses to stay with Malina, not only does he risk forfeiting his right to ever return to his dimension, but he will need her blood to survive.


Life is being life at the moment. All hard work and very little fun, so I was glad to pick up a book and read for the pleasure of it. I'd never read this author before but the premise of the story grabbed my attention:
A straight-laced Nephilim-descendant and a human trouble-magnet?
I said bring it on!

Let's start with the straight-laced Nephilim, Asriel. The man or rather descendant of fallen angels, if you want to be specific hasn't got time for humans. He certainly doesn't want to have to babysit (guard) one, especially since the last time he was on earth something happened. But, he has no option but to go and do his job.
So he turns up and the woman, Malina, who is supposed to lead him to his charge attracts his attention in more ways than he can explain. The first time he sees her, he has to come to her rescue.

Malina is determined to sort her life and keep on the right track but she is a woman who seems to attract trouble. Her boss's son is gradually turning into a stalker and there are strange minion creatures ambushing her.
There are so many unanswered questions about her life and when Asriel turns up, and she feels a connection to him , she wants to know everything she can about him.
But of course he is caught between obeying the rules that govern who he is and opening his heart and showing his feelings to Malina.

This is a lovely story. The mystery surrounding Asriel and Malina kept me turning the pages and the romance between Asriel and Malina was sweet and I wanted to know if Asriel would truly 'fall'.

If you enjoy paranormal romance, especially about fallen angels, then you should check this out.
