Product Description

Redemption isn’t a word Jim Heron knows much about — his specialty is revenge, and to him, sin is all relative. But everything changes when he becomes a fallen angel and is charged with saving the souls of seven people from the seven deadly sins. And failure is not an option.

Vin diPietro has surrendered himself to his business—until fate intervenes in the form of a tough-talking, Harley-riding, self-professed savior, and a woman who makes him question his destiny. With an ancient evil ready to claim him, Vin has to work with a fallen angel not only to win his beloved over…but to redeem his very soul.

About the Author

J. R. Ward lives in the South with her incredibly supportive husband and her beloved golden retriever. After graduating from law school, she began working in health care in Boston and spent many years as chief of staff for one of the premier academic medical centers in the nation.

4.0 out of 5 stars A PROMISING START ON THE OTHER SIDE OF CALDWELL N.Y, Oct 5 2009

By	J Bug "SUNNIE Day reader" (British Columbia, Canada) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

This review is from: Covet (Mass Market Paperback)

I'm sure most people picking up Covet are fans of JR Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood and my advice to you would be (as hard as it is) to forget about the Brothers (just for a moment) and enjoy this story for what it is. Ward has created a whole new mythology here, that of Angels, Demons and the occult and given us some fantastic new characters to play in it. Her unique writing style makes this story feel familiar from the get go and I loved revisiting the places I've come to know in Caldwell N.Y. through the Brotherhood. Seeing the city in the daylight was especially fun and I revelled in the familiarity of these new yummy characters with their loud music, unique slang and multiple f-bombed banter. Yes, it's good to be back with the WARDen again.

I found writing a synopsis really difficult here without giving too much away so I'll just set the story in motion. Jim Heron, as one of the main characters is no Angel *wink, wink* He's lived his life on both sides of the law and that's what makes him the perfect impartial choice for the angels and demons ultimate end game. Jim has been chosen as the deal breaker in a game of good vs. evil and given the task of saving the souls of seven people from one of seven deadly sins, If he fails so does all of humanity, so it isn't really an option.

The first soul Jim is sent to redeem is that of Vin diPietro, a wealthy and powerful yet dissatisfied business man. He's also Jim's boss. Through circumstances Jim finds himself at the nightclub The Iron Mask (previously ZeroSum) with Vin and his beautiful but mysterious fianc�. This situation is awkward in a host of different ways (no spoilers here) but it allows us to see Trez again and for Vin to see Marie-Therese across a crowded dance floor and not be able to look away. We of course get into Marie-Therese's head and learn the whys and how's of her life as a prostitute (this is not a spoiler, she was in Lover Avenged) And her story is very interesting. We then enter a love triangle of sorts and a serial killer sets his sights on Marie-Therese. Meanwhile Jim adopts a dog and tries to save the world while Vin faces a horrifying ancient evil.

So, these are the four main characters involved in Covet and they all go through some major personality changes during the course of this story. There are also several secondary characters, some of which have been well fleshed out but others like Jim's two Fallen Angel mentors have unfortunately been left a little vague.

This gets 4.5 stars from me and I would recommend it. I become invested in the characters and couldn't put it down, I laughed, I shook my head, shrieked and sighed. The love scenes are amazing and I liked Jim as the hero and his little dog too. Vin and Marie-Therese's evolving romance is captivating and sexy, although those of you looking for a typical romance novel may be somewhat disappointed. I didn't feel as though I'd learned enough (or gotten enough) of the Fallen Angels but the antagonists were well done and even a little scary (albeit they didn't smell like baby powder.) The last 100 pages of Covet are heart pounding and in the end Ms Ward left me wanting more. Do yourself a favour though and don't search for the cameo appearances from the Brothers while you read this, just enjoy the story. They are there but be warned they're very brief. (I will however admit to screaming like a little girl when I found them.)

4.0 out of 5 stars Awesome start for I am sure an awesome series, Oct 16 2009

By	Cyn (Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Covet (Mass Market Paperback)

Covet is the first book in the Fallen Angels series by the amazing J.R. Ward. I anticipated this book as I am a die hard totally addicted fan of the Black Dagger Brotherhood series.

This series is also set in Caldwell, NY, but not as dark as the BDB series. We see daylight in this series and the concept is based on Angels versus Demons but not quite like any other Paranormal series. The Angels have to save humans by getting them to choose the right side while the demons influence and cheat their way into getting said humans to choose the dark side. Our first Fallen Angel Jim is powerful yet dark and so is his fellow angels who appear in this story. What's great is that characters we have come to love in the BDB series makes apperances in this series and the meshing of the two worlds is done flawlessly. Jim has to save Vin (human) by getting him to choose the right side while coming to some pretty big revelations himself. The love story between Vin and his lady is beleivable, romantic and yet hot..hot..hot.

I truly enjoyed this book, and can't wait for the next book. It may be a little way off, as the Warden does not produce book after book after book, but when she does it's quality, thought out masterpieces that are most definitely worth the wait.

4.0 out of 5 stars lovestoread, Nov 12 2009

By	pbert "book addict" (Kapuskasing, On Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Covet (Mass Market Paperback)

Just like Phury's book in BDB series I had a hard time getting into this one but wow!!!! when I actually read it I enjoyed it very much. If you are a die-hard BDB fan like the rest of us I would say forget them (just for a little while) and concentrate on these fallen angels, you will be pleasantly surprised. Also liked the little cameos from Phury and RED SOX baseball cap, must be Butch. Am certainly looking forward to next book in this series. Only complaint I have is that it will probably be too long to wait.
