Summary
Dangerous secrets and forbidden desires lead to shocking consequences… Don’t miss book two of the fantastical Harbinger trilogy from #1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout.
“Jennifer L. Armentrout’s intoxicating new fantasy is her best yet!” —New York Times bestselling author Gena Showalter on Storm and Fury
Half-angel Trinity and her bonded gargoyle protector, Zayne, have been working with demons to stop the apocalypse while avoiding falling in love. The Harbinger is coming…but who or what is it? All of humankind may fall if Trinity and Zayne can’t win the race against time as dark forces gather.
As tensions rise, they must stay close together and patrol the DC streets at night, seeking signs of the Harbinger, an entity that is killing Wardens and demons with no seeming rhyme or reason. Forbidden to be with each other, Zayne and Trinity fight their feelings and turn to unusual sources for help—the demon Roth and his cohorts. But as deaths pile up and they uncover a sinister plot involving the local high school and endangering someone dear to Zayne, Trin realizes she is being led…herded…played for some unknown end. As anger builds and feelings spiral out of control, it becomes clear that rage may be the ruin of them all.

Review
Holy f@8king Sh*t!!! I love that moment when you reading and you get to a part where you just get the feeling something super amazing is about to happen – that’s what happened whilst reading this book and the awesome was so much more awesome than I could ever have imagined… trying to write this review spoiler-free is going to be so hard but I’ll try.
Trinity and Zayne are still adjusting to the events that happened in the last book, Zayne is now her protector and this comes with new rules for them to navigate – one of them being that no romantic involvement is allowed, but with feelings growing by the day it’s getting more and more hard to fight – not to mention they are on the hunt for the Harbinger so their hands are pretty full.
This story had me on the edge of my seat! I couldn’t put it down. As I was reading I just kept waiting for bad stuff to happen – let me tell you it was INTENSE! And then when stuff started happening I was like no God noooo!! It was a rollercoaster of emotion and I loved it. I’m so excited for everyone to read this because you won’t be disappointed.
I just love Trinity, she is such a BA! I like that she doesn’t let her visual impairment get in the way of kicking some major ass. Some of my favorite moments in this book is when her and Zayne are training and a certain Demon Prince is present – it was just great, you could really feel the tension coming off these characters, plus Roth adding snark to the whole thing was the icing on the cake.
The thing that I’m really amazed at it is Zayne’s character development, Jen has taken a character whom I didn’t really care for (I only read Storm and Fury for more Roth and Layla) and made me not love but really really like and care about what happens – there is some heart-wrenching moments in this story and I just kept thinking “No not Zayne!! He has suffered enough”
Lastly, I can’t finish this review without (another) mention of Roth – he really does keep getting better and better – I feel like I need a whole book from his PoV – how fun would it be to get bigger glimpse inside his head?? Ahh, it would make my year if Jen wrote this
In a nutshell…
A fantastic sequel to Storm and Fury and I’m so excited for the next book!!
My Rating: 5/5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
