Maccus Fury, a fallen angel, is trying hard to keep his sanity. Seems being an assassin might be catching up with him. Now, Heaven, or Hell, has sent a beautiful assassin to kill him. Lovely. She’s pretending to seduce him, and he’s okay with that. She’s smart and snarky––but she has no idea what she’s walked into. And he’s more than peeved that they only sent one person. They’re going to need an army if they want him dead. Morrigan Quill is one of Hell’s bounty hunters. She sold her soul to keep her sister safe, and now she’s working off her contract by catching bad guys and dragging them back to hell. Just a hundred years to go. When Hades makes her a new offer––that’s definitely too good to be true––she can’t say no. All she has to do is kill a powerful and crazy-hot fallen angel, who will totally kick her ass in battle. Good thing he won’t see what’s coming next.

A little while ago I was browsing through Netgalley and came across this gorgeous cover of ‘Fury Unleashed’. Although I have never read a book by N.J. Walters before, and haven’t read a lot of paranormal romance lately, I loved the look and sound of this book and was beyond excited when I received the mail saying I was getting send an ARC.

‘Fury Unleashed’ is the first book in the Forgotten Brotherhood series. This book is told from both Maccus Fury, and Morrigan Quill’s point of view. Maccus is a Fallen Angel who has lived for thousands of years. He works as an assassin and rarely feels anything. Maccus has only a little thread of humanity left and he doesn’t even care. But when Morrigan, a bounty hunter, walks by him he feels things he hasn’t felt before. And soon they find out that both Heaven and Hell are involved with setting them up to meet.

Requesting this book was a bit of a gamble. I rarely read fantasy or paranormal novels lately. But this book just seemed to speak to me. I really wanted to read it and I’m so happy I did because I really loved this book from the moment I started till the very end.

‘Fury Unleashed’ is the perfect combination of romance, action and paranormal. I loved it! The two main characters Maccus and Morrigan shouldn’t work at all, but they do. Their chemistry is flying of the pages, and there is definitely a lot of Hotness going on.  I mean if you don’t like sex in your book, than this one is not for you. But I loved the way there was all this hot stuff, but above all their was romance and lots of action. This book definitely kept me sitting on the edge of my seat.

The action was intense. I mean we are talking about fighting between Heaven and Hell and demons and.. Well, you’ll have to read it!

But what I loved most about this read was the way there just was a whole new world. There are bounty hunters, demons, angels and there is heaven and hell.. but everything is new and original. Nothing is the way you think it is. N.J. Walters created this unique new world and I very much enjoyed it.

Since this book is the first one in a series, I definitely can’t wait to read the next book. And I might have to check out more books by this author.

Once upon a time N.J. had the idea that she would like to quit her job at the bookstore, sell everything she owned, leave her hometown, and write romance novels in a place where no one knew her. And she did. Two years later, she went back to the bookstore and her hometown and settled in for another seven years. One day she gave notice at her job on a Friday morning. On Sunday afternoon, she received a tentative acceptance for her first erotic romance novel and life would never be the same. N.J. Walters is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author who has always been a voracious reader, and now she spends her days writing novels of her own. Vampires, werewolves, dragons, time-travelers, seductive handymen, and next-door neighbors with smoldering good looks—all vie for her attention. It’s a tough life, but someone’s got to live it.
